Diet 4 Success

I’m always looking for fun and different items for my home and especially my kitchen. I love shopping for new gadgets that can help my cooking tasks easier or decorative items that jazz up the room. One of my favorite recent finds was a beautiful handmade batik fabric bread basket. This great-looking basket isn’t just decorative, but it’s useful too. I bought a couple of them so I can it when I’m serving breads and rolls with dinner and use the other basket for the napkins and condiments too. Read more…

Goji berry is a small red berry, which is produced organically by a plant called Lycium Barbarum. The Goji berry plants can only be found on certain remote regions of China, Tibet as well as Mongolia. Every year for two weeks, the locals will celebrate to honor the benefits and importance that Goji berries have provided for them. This is because the content of beta-carotene in Goji berries is more than carrots. They also contain more protein that any whole wheat and their vitamin C is approximately five hundred times more than oranges. Goji berries also contain 21 trace minerals, including germanium, an anti-cancer trace mineral which is rarely found in foods. Read more…

Folk artist Charles Wysocki is famous for his intricately detailed scenes of Americana. But he is equally celebrated by cat lovers for his droll portraits of various cat characters. In Frederick the Literate Cat, an adorable gray tabby cat sleeps comfortably on a library shelf. He has carefully insinuated himself among the books and now is completely at ease, one leg draped over the shelf’s edge. The shelves are decorated with carved birds and fish. The spines of the leather books show them to be well read and well worn. Their titles reflect Wysocki’s waggish sense of humor: Cat-O-Nine-Tales, Delicious Field Mice I Have Known, A Tale Of Two Kitties, The Feline Comedy, Field Guide To The Garbage Can. You can have this charming picture in your own home – in the form of a deliciously soft throw. This Frederick the Literate Cat Throw by Wysocki is perfect to snuggle up in or to give to the cat fancier on your list. Read more…

Not everyone has an acre of yard space at their disposal; some don’t even have a fraction of that. Some of us frankly, are the proud owners of a yard the size of a postage stamp. But even a postage stamp sized yard needs a lawn mower, weed whip, rake, fertilizer spreader, hose, sprinkler (who springs for underground sprinkling for a postage stamp) and assorted items like hedge trimmers, spade, weed puller, etc. So what is a person supposed to do with all that stuff because we all know there’s only so much room in a garage and that space was intended for the car(s). That is where the garden shed comes in; you can get one with double doors on the front, a 78″ high ceiling so it’s easy to get things in and out of and it fits quite nicely along the wall on the outside of the garage! The wall columns are metal reinforced so it is very sturdy and more than capable of holding all the yard gear. Read more…
