    Enjoy an Easy Family Dinner with a Sandwich Bar

    September 17, 2018 /

    Today’s post is sponsored by Eckrich Deli Meat but all opinions are my own. Now that school is back in session (yay!) moms can heave a big sigh because we now have a little extra time for ourselves which is always a good thing. I am always looking for simple, yet healthy meal options that don’t take a ton of time to prepare.  That is why sandwich night is always a big hit in our house.  We like to put out some ham, Swiss and cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, roasted bell peppers, yummy olives and pickles, a variety of bread, and everyone can pick and choose which type of sandwich…

    September 17, 2018 /

      Last month I was invited to attend The Nolcha Shows held during New York Fashion Week.  I have wanted to attend NYFW forever and this year I decided to just make it happen as I hadn’t been to New York in almost twenty years and I was long overdue.  Have you been?  It is one of my favorite cities and I can see why people fall in love with the place  – from the never ending nightlife to amazing food – this is one city everyone needs to visit at least once! The week before I was scrambling trying to figure out what to wear and luckily, the ladies…

    3 Awesome Women Leaders of Ancient Egypt

    September 12, 2018 /

    Written by Cassidy Murray “We are not makers of history, we are made by history.” Martin Luther King Jr. Throughout time there have been countless inspiring women who have shaped the course of history. Through their brave acts and fearless persistence, they proved to the world that women are awesome leaders. And although there are innumerable women who I could address, some of the first and most astonishing women to influence the world were found in antiquity, particularly in ancient Egypt.  These were women who made concrete changes in the past which influenced and evolved culture as we know it today. These leading women became striking examples and influencers for centuries…
