Spring can change a person, it can awaken them in a way like no other season can. After a dreary winter full of rain, snow and cold; spring can feel like a fresh start.
People tend to have more energy, almost as if they are awakening from winter hibernation and feel like doing projects outsides again. Many will start walking or exercising in preparation for summer and “shorts” weather. People can return to their favorite hobbies like gardening, golfing or watching your favorite sport baseball. Spring is also a time where in some families gatherings become more frequent with holiday weekends and nice weather bringing everyone together again.
With the first day of spring happening tomorrow, March 20th, what is something that you are looking forward to this spring?

What is Romy raving about?
Well this week it is Striking as she hosts a giveaway. Romy had been using our products earlier this winter and then wrote a product review on her blog titled Romy Raves. It is a blog where she raves about her latest findings in culture, wine, food and beauty products. Romy writes as if she is your friend that is telling you about her latest finds and keeping you in the loop.

I have so many fond memories of waking up on the weekends to the smell of something baking in the oven. My grandmother would get up early and make her pies for later that evening. After dinner we would whip the cream and then sit down at the table where we laughed until it was time for bed.
In honor of National Pie Day, this Saturday is the perfect day to bake a pie. There is always a huge sense of accomplishment when you make something and people sit down to enjoy it. Apple, cherry, pecan, key lime and chocolate are a few favorites but there are so many versions to choose from. For ideas and recipes, try www.allrecipes.com and type “pie” in the header for a large selection.
If you are not feeling sweet, try a homemade pot pie. A turkey or chicken pot pie would make a great Saturday night dinner if you are staying in. Or if you are limiting your sweets these days, you can still bake a pie but bring it to a neighbor or family member to brighten their day.
Enjoy pie day – it only comes but once a year.
Everybody knows that we all need to exercise to stay healthy, keep our bodies in shape and help reduce everyday stress levels. But do we do it on a regular basis? Sometimes it is a stretch to get in the routine and develop a workout or exercise that is done regularly. I know that many of us in the office are trying to get back to the gym but it seems difficult once the time comes to go.
What do you do for exercise to keep in shape? How often do you do it -daily, every other day, weekly, periodically, etc.
