Last Friday, I watched from our carefully positioned half-circle sideline amongst the rest of the wedding party as my best friend got married. It was a quick, beautiful ceremony that brought about many mixed emotions from within me. I was one of two maids of honor and that was alright with me, especially since neither one of us live in the same state as the bride. My own husband was there to ...

Now is the prime time for strawberry-picking, but whether hand-picked or store-bought, the recipes below will not only blow you away, but will also ...

Summer is finally here! While many people are overjoyed and embracing the long sunlit warm days, there are others, like myself, that are bummed about winter being long gone and not being able to ski or snowboard for another good five months or so (that’s almost half a year away!). We’ve got the summertime blues.What kinds of things are there for dedicated skiers to do in the off-season, you ask? ...
