A cup of coffee is a cup of coffee. You buy a bag, maybe whatever is on sale, or maybe you have a special kind of brew that you gravitate towards. Some of us might even be brand loyal. These days a pound of coffee easily costs $7. What if part of that $7 could [...]
I have never been to Atlantic City before this weekend. If you had asked me a week ago to tell you to describe what I imagined it would be like I honestly would not have said “family” oriented. I mean, come on! It’s Atlantic City! Gambling, show girls, night life…not exactly something that was on [...]
The CDC dedicated the entire month of May to stroke awareness. May 20th is a specific day of the month that we can all stop and take a moment to educate ourselves and our loved ones about the third leading cause of death in the United States. Many associate strokes as something that happens to [...]
It’s May 18th and you know what that means! That’s right!! It’s National No Dirty Dishes Day! It’s the day when magical fairies swoop into our homes and while we prop our feet up and read a book or catch up on America’s Next Top Model (don’t judge me) they do all of our dishes! [...]

A few weeks ago I attended the Getting Gorgeous event in NYC. The expo hall was buzzing with cool displays and interesting products but my eyes kept going to the mannequins in swimsuits. It was a brisk day in the Northeast and I was feeling less than beach body so the vibrant colors of the [...]
My favorite flower is the peony. This vibrant and stunning bloom is said to be named after a man named Paeon and depending on which story you read, was either turned into a flower by Zeus in order to save him from death by the God of healing or he was a physician and found [...]
If you are anywhere near Philadelphia this Saturday afternoon you need to stop by the Philadelphia Zoo and check out Cradle to Crayons 1st Annual Spring Greening Fundraiser to help local kids and the planet. Bring donations for children and be granted admission to the zoo for $7 (and that will include a beverage, a [...]
Minimal Movie Posters is a new site that takes our favorite movies and reimagines the movie one-sheet as minimalistic art. It is reader submitted and some of the pieces are quite stunning. A few years ago Sound of Design took famous album covers and reworked them in a similar fashion. We wonder if you can [...]
