Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho
I do not care for zucchini bread, probably because I just do not like nutmeg. Sorry, it is a deterrent when it comes to those zucchini breads, carrot cake and pumpkin pie. NO thank you. In order to determine a way to use up a boat load of yellow squash I was the recipient of... Continue Reading →
I am always on the search for new trends that match my passion for greening our environment, and that means our homes. As a Realtor®, I try my best to point out the features of a home that make it energy efficient and what a Buyer can consider upgrading in the future. In my own... Continue Reading →

But is being alone the same... Continue Reading →
I learned long ago after reading Deepak Chopra’s book, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, about giving a gift each day. Some of my gifts are letting someone go first on to traffic, especially when I am in a hurry. I find that I sometimes need to slow down, so I have to make myself... Continue Reading →
