I’ve confessed already that I have stayed up many nights, and have fallen prey to many infomercials. My problem is that there are all these products out there with amazing claims on how they could change my life, and I am asking myself constantly, Jen, are you doing enough? Just today, I was getting my delicious juice made at Whole Foods and they were running a raffle for a basket holding all these healthy things– Steel Cut Oatmeal, Liquid Aminos. I panicked. I gave up my … Continue Reading »
As promised, I have a few recommended items that might make your medicine cabinet a more lean mean fighting machine. Your makeup counter, organized and beautiful.
