Stuff That Makes You Feel Beautiful! I am totally into green living. I cloth diaper, I use all natural cleaning products, we only own one car and try to bike or walk when we can, I try to buy local food and I try to use natural beauty products. I stress ‘try’ on the later because, though I enjoy leading a green oriented life, I am not what one would call a Crunchy Mama. I like to shop, I generally do my hair everyday and I always have at least tinted moisturizer, blush/bronzer and Mascara on when I leave the read more…

I am sure you have all heard about the Chris Brown and Rhianna incident that occurred earlier this year. Well, yesterday Chris Brown was sentenced.

If I were being kind, I would describe myself as being a wee bit spirited. The truth is, it would be complete sophistry to pretend that I was anything but bullheaded and at times an opinionated bitch (cringe, but true).
