Two Little Book of Thin Secrets to Say Thank You
Little Book of Thin illustrator Diana Marye Huff Here we are, another Monday morning and I have two questions for you. Are you walking around with any thoughts along the line of “ugh why did I eat x, y or z this weekend?” My second seemingly unrelated question is do...
My Vending Machine Dream Came True (almost)
Imagine this in our waiting room (of course then no clients could fit) What do you dream about? Exotic adventures? Romantic encounters? Seeing someone you no longer can? Playing professional sports? I imagine those are fairly common. Me? I’m a little different (as you...
Are we all our own marketers? Randi Zuckerberg says no.

Do you buy the latest vitamin or superfood and never use them?

I think I'm a dog person

Your Family Will Love Protein Pancakes and Giveaway

Making things better: savory oatmeal
One of my many, many issues is that I’m fixated on betterment. This extends far beyond my own personal habits and diet. Truthfully, there are no limits. You think a certain hotel is amazing? I will have some ideas to make it better. You liked a book? I’ll explain how...
Juice and Smoothie Recipes on Instagram
