I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. I had a nice, kind-of relaxing weekend. I spent all weekend cleaning, organizing, fixing and moving furniture (hubby did the moving but I supervised, lol). I've been meaning to publish this post all week but I haven't had the time to finish so finally, here it is. Last Monday, I attended the EA SPORTS Active event in New York City. The event was held at the Marriott Marquis Hotel on Times Square. First of all, the hotel is fabulous. It … [Read more...]

When I heard about this study, I became really ecstatic because I love coffee. I could drink coffee several times a day. It gives me the extra needed boost I need through out the day and it tastes really good. A little sugar & cinnamon makes it extra special for me. There's about 20 studies out now that coffee, both regular and decaffeinated, lower the risk for Type-2 Diabetes.
