I was sent free products for review purposes. While my family and I do not have to follow a gluten-free diet per se, it does not mean that we don’t appreciate wholesome foods that are healthy and free of potential dietary issues.  We are fortunate to not have allergies at this point in our lives, but I know that allergies […]

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. So, I’m wondering–are you like me?  Do you ever struggle with being tired in the afternoon?  I sure do.  It normally happens some time around one or two in the afternoon.  I often have coffee or something else like that, but it’s not convenient when I am working to have […]

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. St. Patrick’s Day has certainly become a big holiday–much bigger than when I was growing up.  All we did when I was growing up was wear green.  I am very happy to share with you the fantastic costume accessories I received from Private Island Party.  They are high quality and […]

Banished Love by Ramona Flightner My rating: 5 of 5 stars I am quite pleased to recommend to my readers another clean, historical romance that is incredibly well-written and quite entertaining to read. This book is completely appropriate for every reading level (a few minor profanity instances, but hardly worth mentioning and no bedroom scenes implied or detailed). I fell […]

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. Easter is on its way, and it is the time of year to be thinking about Christian favors.  Easter is a fun time, but I believe in celebrating the real reason for the season.  Sometimes is can be a challenge to find nice-looking items to give and display at this […]

Hopeful by Shelley Shephard Gray My rating: 4 of 5 stars I am growing quite weary of “Christian Amish romances” that do not deliver what is promised. When I pick up a book in this genre, I have an expectation that I will read about a simple life, have a little romance, and read about how these amazing people solve […]

Love and Muddy Puddles by Cecily Anne Paterson My rating: 5 of 5 stars First of all, this is a completely clean young adult book that appropriate for ny age.  Add an involving story that I think everyone can relate to on a certain level–I know I did!  I am not one who generally read books by Australian authors–this may […]

Wyoming Brides: Denim and Diamonds\The Wyoming Kid by Debbie Macomber My rating: 5 of 5 stars I have read so many reviews about Debbie Macomber and her romance books.  In fact, when her TV show “Cedar Cove” began this past summer, I was certain I had read one of her books.  However, I was wrong.  I quickly added all of […]

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. If you are like me, you are inundated with recipes on a daily basis.  I find recipes in my inbox, when I’m searching online, and there are literally millions of recipes out there from which to choose.  Yes, there are online recipe boxes, but I struggle to remember which site […]
