We love all sorts of melons and fruits, but I never buy the cut sections, even if they’re securely wrapped. Many people don’t know that the outer skin of melons can harbor all sorts of dangers, like salmonella. If you cut through the melon without thoroughly washing it first, then the knife spreads all that [...]

I probably should’ve just edited my prior post about online shopping, but then again, maybe this deserves its own post:
Last week, I got some salt and pepper rice cakes. I like rice cakes, but I’d never tried this flavor. I opened them up, and thought they were perfectly dreadful, lol! However, my son and my [...]

My mother has smoked since before I was born and has no interest in quitting. I can’t imagine the amount of time she spends every day on her habit. As a matter of fact, I can’t imagine what else she has time for because she’s so busy smoking cigarettes. She doesn’t want to try any [...]

My daughter, MP has been trying the Vitamin C I mentioned in a prior post . I wouldn’t say she’s feeling tons better, but I’ve noticed that she is no longer sneezing in her sleep. The strange thing is, I didn’t even know people sneezed in their sleep till she started doing it. She still [...]
