Advice &Tips: A little Something to Get You Thinking ... and Me

Inn Crowd or Stable Few? I love this...
I would love to have this on the wall in my place somewhere as a reminder. Theres SO much media now aimed at self gratification that we need (i feel) more reminders of "the big picture".

Advise & Tips: "oh, im not giving it, im asking for it" ...

who says my post can't be asking for advise or tips instead of giving it?! who made up that rule? - no one! - so answer this ... [lol]

is there like a guide to refrigerator organization? You know like fruits store best in this area and eggs in this area type thing? I desperately need to know! My family and i have decided to commit to eating healthier and making it a lifestyle not just a trend or "try it" thing. We've tryed it and we feel great eating whole foods and healthy snacks so we are all in! but i want to make the most of our buys and fruit and veggies spoil pretty fast!

Any tips or advice? What Id love is a frig map! I am a visual gal so I would post that baby right on my frig and follow the map.

Food: Taco Night

Mexican Onion, Cilantro, Cheese, Cabbage, Tomato and Ground Turkey. Homemade Salsa & Tortillas. DEElicious!
I will post recipes and instructions as I learn to make more time for blogging because the homemade salsa was to LIVE for!

Holidays: Halloween

My husband was surfer Moses: "Let my people go! - to surf!"
We usually do not celebrate Halloween but my husband thought his clients would get a kick out of his silly dress theme. (Totally not a knock at the mighty man of God Moses, just thought it would be funny).

Inspiration: The Most Inspiring Blogger Yet (for me anyway)


"





"THE WIFE" is for the timeless wife or elegant wife to be. Whether THE WIFE favors a career working in the corporate world or has dedicated her time and efforts as a housewife, She always maintains a happy and healthy family. THE WIFE is an astounding women and amazing mother, who proudly makes time for her husband and children. THE WIFE loves to cook, has a passion for party planning, a fondness for etiquette, adores decorating and keeping a beautiful home and of course dressing the part. THE WIFE cares about being "green" and takes the time to make her home environmentally friendly. Finally THE WIFE dedicates her spare time to charitable causes and giving back to her community. Women who might inspire THE WIFE would be: Jacqueline Kennedy, Michelle Obama, Grace Kelly, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Carolina Herrera.
