5 Star Black Bean Corn Salsa

A good friend gave me this black bean corn salsa recipe about 17 years ago, it has been such a hit on many occasions and I’ve passed it on to so many people I’ve lost count. The best part is it’s fresh and healthy! After my husband tasted it, he started requesting it all the time. Being the good wife that I am, I made it for him. And I made it. And I made it. I made it so much for several summers in a row I got to the point where I actually couldn’t stand the look or smell of it any more! Lol! I finally mustered up some motivation a few years ago and brought it back to the table. My husband was so excited about it, he actually hid a small bowl in the refrigerator from our guests.

How to Find a Quality Salon

I enjoy having my nails, hair and other services done but sometimes it seems like a chore. The older I get, the more time I spend at a salon. I always say that I’m increasing in maintenance each year!!! If I can have one stop shopping, I’m all for it! I’m so happy I found Spa Naturelle. There are five things I love about this salon and I believe they are important to consider when looking for a place to receive your services. When a salon passes the test for quality in one area, I can be assured they will have the same standards across the board.

How to Make a Healthy Berry Smoothie

Through the years I’ve always experimented with smoothies. Some good and some not so good. I have also grown accustomed to the taste of healthier foods. When you eat healthier I learned that you crave less sugars and unhealthy carbs. I remember when I tried my first healthy berry smoothie and thinking, “you’ve got to be kidding me? But now, I love them!

How To Choose Lighting For Your Home

A few years ago we built our home and I learned how important lighting can be because it can add more personality to a room. Lighting has come so far in the last 10-15 years. There are so many beautiful choices! Gone are the days of matching your sconces to your chandelier to your task lighting. No more matchy matchy! Lighting serves three purposes, art, mood and function.

You CAN teach an old dog new tricks!

When the doorbell rang, all chaos broke loose, which included barking and jumping on guests at the front door. This seems to be a theme among dog owners. I love my sweet dogs, all three of them, but they were lacking in manners. The pleasure they gave me was being overshadowed by the irritation I felt. Georgia, our 10-year-old Golden Retriever, was trainable… or so I thought. Bleu, our 7-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, was a sweet, docile, lovable dog who never listened to a word I said. For some crazy reason after several years with two misbehaving dogs I thought it would make sense to buy a 3rd dog and add to the madness. Her name is Winnie, a CKC like Bleu. After Winnie came and the doorbell rang, it turned the entire household into a circus. We’re probably to blame for that since we treated her like a baby from day one, carrying her around and pampering her. As a result, she grew to demand constant attention. She started the “pack’s” downward spiral of bad behavior. Fortunately, our dog groomer told us about a dog trainer named Lorenzo and I can’t thank her enough for sending us to him.
