Better Brownies

Better Brownies. Better than what? Your grandmother’s? Your own? The recipe I posted over a year ago? Or maybe this one? Or this one? I’ll let you decide. They are all good. However… I had some guests over this past Friday night for Shabbat and needles to say, my friend knew what was in these […]

Say Yes is a Wonderful Book

Say Yes is a wonderful book! Right from the moment I opened the cover, the messages and beautiful graphics sucked my attention in like a vacuum cleaner. Oh my goodness, Lisa Borden (@lisaborden) of Borden Communications (@bordencommunications)! You wrote and designed a beauty! “Wow…OMG Yes. And Yes. And.. Yessiree.” I said out loud to myself. […]

The Best Hot and Cold Therapy

I just experienced the best hot and cold therapy last week and I have to tell you all about it! Firstly, let me begin by explaining what the heck hot and cold therapy is and why it’s good for you. As you know, I’m all about what’s good for you – and me! Hot and […]

The Best Advice From A Young Lad

Who knew that my book Get Up would include the best advice from a young lad? To answer the question “What would I tell my teenage self?” I purposely sought out mentors who had some years under their belt. Those who have been around. Saw a lot. Did a lot. Learned a lot. It made sense for […]

Terry is Simply Terrific

Terry (@terrywalterscooks) is simply terrific. Bottom line. The real deal. What you see is what you get. Someone who is not only committed to her craft but has the desire to learn more, do more, and say why the heck not? I have to thank Lisa Borden (@lisaborden) of Borden Communications (@bordencommunciations) who introduced Terry […]

Free-Spirited and Fabulous Dawn

Free-spirited and fabulous Dawn is the only way I can describe this remarkable woman. Mother, grandmother, musician, artist, and devoted teacher. With a resume like this, how can anyone not call her free-spirited and fabulous? Dawn is a proud mentor in my book Get Up, where she thoroughly answered the question: WHAT WOULD I TELL […]

The Best Calling for Carmen

The best calling for Carmen Oliveira (@Cardol10) came unexpectantly. I don’t think anyone could have imagined it, and I’m sure it took her by surprise, too. There she was, not only taking care of her body but also committed to studying it – in medical school! Little did she know, from being so attuned to […]

Strong, healthy, and wise

Strong, healthy, and wise are the words I choose to describe Karen Gnat (@karengnat) perfectly. A yoga teacher. Nutritionist. An advocate for mental health. However, getting to this point wasn’t easy. A great deal of emotional work, combined with painful experiences has created a path to where Karen stands today. Strong, healthy, and wise. With […]

The Best Classroom

The Best Classroom The best classroom could be found sandwiched between four walls, with a teacher standing at the front, with rows of desks topped with the latest laptops. The best classroom could also be found in the playground. At a kitchen table. In a car. And even in the forest. That’s right, in the […]

I Love Trying New Things!

How I love trying new things! Why? It gets me out of my comfort zone. Makes my day so much more interesting – and fun!  It gives me an opportunity to learn new ways that make me feel good. Trying new things gets my brain to think differently, which enables me to take a mental break […]
