Wear Sunscreen

Saturday, March 28th, 2009

When I was in college, my friend Joie told me that by the time we reach the age 25, we should be more skin conscious.

The 30-day Quaker challenge

Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009

I’m now on my eleventh day of the thirty-day oatmeal challenge. I decided to try eating just oatmeal for breakfast because my doctor suggested it to me (actually, he ordered me to). I was asking him for an alternative for a weight loss supplement and so he did. Oatmeal is not really my kind of [...]
