It is that time of year again and the list of Hanukkah gifts are getting long… Over the years, we have determined that just buying gifts to buy gifts simply doesn’t make sense.

Travel as we age can pose a whole new set of issues ranging from finances to our health to how far away is the destination.

For the rest of us, some adjustments in…

Top Considerations for Buying Pots And Pans

October 6, 2016

It happened; my pots and pans of 23 years cried uncle and had to be replaced. They outlasted most everything else in our home, well, 8 homes to be exact, but finally succumbed to time and use.

by Sherry Wernicke

September 8, 2016

I did 50 squats, 40 leg lifts, tons of lunges, and jogged in place the other morning. I got in a serious 20 minute workout. By the time I got home, I was really sweating. Okay, so you’re probably going, “Big deal. So did I”. What’s the difference? I did mine while I was walking my dogs. For some reason, I started doing side leg…

August 29, 2016

I’ve certainly known all about Maria Sharapova and her amazing tennis accomplishments, but who knew we shared a passion; yes, I say passion, for all things sweet.

Traveling the world, Maria had the opportunity to search for the chocolate she felt was right for her candy brand. She ended up choosing…

Why I Love My First Pair Of White Jeans

August 12, 2016

Recently, I was asked by a company if I would write a sponsored post about a Microliner. I was at first like, “Me, no way! I’m not old enough for that”. But, then I was like, “It has nothing to do with age”. Besides, who am I kidding; I wear a panty liner everyday for bladder leakage to stay fresh. There, I said it! Especially…

It is so very true. I love Groupon and all the great deals I find on their website and app. So, when I was contacted to write a post for Groupon, it was a quick yes. I use Groupons both when at home and when I travel. This is a sponsored post, but all of the following opinions are honest and my own, because I…

Dinner Party Hosting Doesn’t Have to be Scary

by Sherry Wernicke

July 6, 2016

Dana and I love hosting dinner parties, but for me, it wasn’t always that way. She, on the other hand, is a born party thrower and hostess. I fretted over absolutely everything, but mostly that people would cancel at the last minute.

Enjoy Ginger Blueberry Jam All Year Long

This is the time of year when we want to save the last of the season’s freshest for the rest of the year. So, I picked up loads of the last of this season’s blueberries. I flash froze a bunch and then made this jam with the rest. I doubled the recipe and made about 6 half pints of jam. I like to do small…

I am turning 48 this week. Yes, yikes, two years shy of 50. And, unbelievably in this day and age of so many beauty products and procedures, I have rarely used any skincare products on my own face.
