LOX ME UP AND THROW AWAY THE KEY

I have joined up with some of the most creative bloggers I know. We bounce ideas off of each other. We are sounding boards. We do not judge. We laugh together about the silliest things. We send virtual hugs all day long if one of us is having a hard day. This is the place I go to first.

CELEBRATING GREEN AND WELCOMING SPRING

But most importantly, we discuss food! This month we are sharing, “Welcome Spring and everything Green”. If you have been following my blog, I have been working with Nature’s Greens and have joined the Kale Up program!! Hooray for Kale~ it makes you happy when you eat it! How many foods can you say does that??
