Kelly, I can relate to what you're saying. Image is critically important to our industry, that's for sure! I think we should all strive to be the best we can be, I just don't like the fact that the "standard" of what is…

Amen, beauty does come from within. We have a very strong opinion about what the US beauty industry is doing to our girls with the ridiculous images especially in relation to body size and unrealistic weight. We almost lost our beautiful daughter to…

I'm usually not compelled to buy any of that stuff because all the stuff in the world can't make you truly beautiful. It comes from within.

I have found this to be true over the years. The knowledge that true beauty lies within gives courage and confidence that accentuates true beauty.

Keeping it Real

We all know that television commercials and glossy magazine ads are a form of creative marketing. By that I mean they embellish the truth - a lot. Commercials that promise long, lush, natural looking lashes are particularly amusing to me. You too can have the lashes of the stars if you purchase several pairs of mink false eyelashes, but realistically you're not going to turn average eyelashes into doe-eyes with mascara alone. Magazine ads that show models with flawless complexions and perfect…See More

Jill, thank you for your story. It brought back so many nice memories. I grew up with vegetable gardens at my grandparents and parents. I can remember absolutly HATING red beets when I was a kid. I had to pick them and scrub them and then, what I…

Tomatoes and Peppers and Cukes, Oh My!

In my opinion there is nothing quite as satisfying as harvesting the fruits of our labors. It gives me a feeling of confidence, that if I had to I could provide my family with sustenance in hard times. Many years ago my young children

helped me with the garden and I used this quality time to teach them that food doesn't just grow on the shelf in the grocery store. That people had to work hard to bring forth such goodness and we should be thankful for their efforts.

Dog Days

It's mid-August in the south and it is hot. How hot, you ask? Well it's so hot that the tar on the street is squishy. It's so humid that my carefully straightened hair now looks like I have a perm. Now that's hot! What can you do during these Dog Days of summer to stay relatively cool? I've got a few suggestions:

• If you have a pool or access to one by all means use it! There's nothing like floating in cool water to help bring down the temperature. Add a cold glass of tea or… Continue

Thanks for adding your Valentine's Gift article! I'm featuring it front and center at the website. I will begin to swap out member blogs in this way so that any of the 1,155 (as of right now!) people at the site can see the information you wish to share.

I am working on adding other ways to increase awareness of what members are doing. Any suggestions you have are always welcome!

Thanks,

It's mice to put a face to the name! I've admired your products from afar for a long time. The first time I saw one of your products was in an article Southern Living did on a Tea Shop in Travelers Rest, SC. And, you aren't but 1.5 hours from me. Small world, huh?

Have a great evening!
