Thank You, Thank You!

While I’ve always “self-checked” myself to make sure I am staying humble and remaining grateful for the good in my life, especially on days where I may be feeling a little run down, or sad, or self-pitying for whatever trivial reason arises- it was the first appearance of COVID in early 2020 that really made […]

The Holiday Prep…

After the very strange and “unconventional” (and even that’s putting it mildly) holiday seasons we had in 2020 and 2021- this year feels like a much-needed reprieve and return to some time-honored and beloved traditions for both Thanksgiving and Christmastime.

My Winter Skincare/Hair Care Routine!

As the seasons change here in New England, I’ve found that it’s often crucial for me to both introduce and remove products from my skin care and hair care regimen to better suit my needs and address any concerns that I have at any particular time. In the Spring and Summer, I often turn to […]
