Happy Earth Day

After a long break, I'm back to the blogging world... The focus of this blog is shifting quite a bit. I'll be focusing less on recipes and what I cooked for dinner every night and more on my life in general. This way, I can better share what's going on in my life with those that mean the most to me. While I don't plan to post daily, I do plan to post regularly. So, if you still want to follow me and my posts, please do so!

Hey, at least I recycle them.

Here are some other things you can do to minimize your ecological footprint:
