On my journey to better overall health and making wiser choices for my body/skin/hair, etc. (I haven’t given up on my New Year’s resolutions yet!) I’ve been blending and squeezing my own juices, using fresh and organic vegetables when cooking light lunches or dinners, and setting reminders to drink more water throughout the day. It’s […]
I’m happy to report that I made it through this past weekend’s dreaded polar vortex, arctic chill, the coldest of cold fronts, etc., which hit New England head-on early Friday evening and relentlessly stuck around until late Saturday afternoon.
