Four favorite pumpkin recipes
Memes are funny because they are true, and this one made me laugh out loud. While I am not a pumpkin spice latte drinker, I am a white girl wearing yoga pants at this very moment and I do like fall. (Image found here, or all over Pinterest.) So here’s my (possibly inevitable) entry into the […]
How to switch to natural deodorant
Remember my New Year’s Resolution to go more organic with my health and beauty supplies?
