I love a good cup of tea. I think I got into it when I was pregnant and couldn’t have as much caffeine. The warm feel of a cup of tea can be just as wonderful as coffee. I’m not alone in thinking this. In fact, tea is the second most consumed beverage on the …
2020 was the year of hand-washing and hand-sanitizing. To be completely honest, I’ve never washed my hands as much as I did in 2020. Thanks, Coronavirus. The fun isn’t over though, and most of us are still washing our hands more than ever. Hand soaps were flying off the shelves in 2020, and they and …
Non-stick cookware has been a kitchen staple for decades. It’s on nearly every wedding registry, and every family seems to have their favorite brand, favorite type, and favorite piece.
