Free Spa Treatments, Facials and Makeovers - Blog Entry

This is a fun idea. I've thought of doing a Mary Kay party, but I don't have a lot of female friends local who are interested. My neighbor is having a Southern Home Living house party next week that she invited me too. I thought I would check out the food and the dishes and such that they have. It's very nice from what I have seen.

Cycling Outside - Like it? Love it? How to do it? - Blog Entry

Thanks for the tip on that. I've always used a smaller seat, so I didn't realize you'd get larger callouses off a larger seat. Makes a lot of sense though! Thanks for sharing!

The salads are probably the most misleading and likely the most disappointing. Even when you go to a sit-down restaurant -- looking at the fat content of a salad can be appalling!

That's a great piece of advice! It really can be stumping when you study the nutrional components in what looks like healthy food. Subway sandwiches are the closest thing I have found to offering a healthy sandwich for a low calorie amount that is still filling. But even then, ultimately you may be better off fixing a lunch bag. We're trying to get into that habit here -- especially if we know we're going to be out and about at lunch time.

Great tips, Sherry! We're going to do something with the Memory Book or Story idea. We just got her class pictures back and it's the first time she can see herself in a picture with all her classmates. She loves it!

Decaffeinating Your Diet - Blog Entry

That's great to hear Kevin! I'm likely going to go back to cutting the excess caffeine out of my diet again. It made sticking to my own diet requirements a lot easier.

I love Barry Manilow. I've loved him for years! Thanks for writing this Marjorie. One of my goals in life is to see Barry perform on stage!

Home Business: Freelance Writing Tips - Blog Entry

Another thought for writers looking to get into the freelance business, whether you are writing for a business or not -- you're still doing a job. It doesn't matter that you can work from home and sit around in your pajamas, you should always present a positive, professional persona to prospective employers and editors. They want you for your skill with research, your talent with the written word and your ability to deliver on time and as promised. They don't care much about the rest.

The Disney Fairy Tale vs. The Original Fairy Tale - Blog Entry

17 Apr 2006 11:49 PM

Great article, Kelly. I've always enjoyed the Disney-ized versions, but I grew up reading Mother Goose and Brother's Grimm. I used to wonder why they couldn't show the real endings in many of their films. My grandmother told me that it was just a different ending from a different storyteller. So I get to enjoy both (except Snow White -- because the high pitched voice put me on the Evil Queen's side!)
