TV Junkie

So you’re a blogger and get free stuff, I should blog too. As bloggers, we often hear those words or something similar about what we do on a daily basis. Have you ever tried to explain to people what you actually do? “I am a blogger, I get free stuff because I want to spend hours creating the perfect post and testing out products. I will share on the brands required Social Media platforms numerous times to advertise the products I received for free.”

Hollywood Walk of Fame

Hollywood Walk of Fame

The Hollywood Walk of Fame runs 1.3 miles (2.1 km) east to west on Hollywood Boulevard. When visiting California, it was on my list of things to do while there.

Lemon Cinnamon Loaf – Cake Mix Recipe

Lemon Cinnamon Loaf

I like to bake but not always from scratch. Who has the time? If I am going to bake from scratch I usually set a day aside to do so.

I like to create something quick and easy for a snack. I normally don’t buy Lemon cake … Continue reading

Recycling at Home and Around Your City

Recycling

We all want to have a healthy and clean environment for our kids to grow up in. I know there was a time when most of us used one bag to put everything in, but times change and since these changes are for the better, we should adapt to these changes. In order for that to happen we all need to do our part. With all the litter and recyclables I see thrown all over the street, next to a bin.
