(Note: Post is long with photos & video so please make sure to check those out! Thanks.) Waking up at 6 am is something I usually don't like doing in the summer.

This past Tuesday was exceptionally different. Several days ago I received an invitation from a representative of Tide detergent about the upcoming advanced … [Read more...]

Watching shows on Food Network has been an obsession for me since my husband and I got DirectTV when we first moved into our house. I had no idea there was a channel dedicated to food (no, I wasn't living under a rock but it sure felt like it...lol). I remember watching Emeril Live and Rachael Ray (they were my fave shows back then) cooking up some delicious meals, I would get so relaxed but also wishing that I was there tasting all the yummy foods too. My obsession is still with the Food … [Read more...]
