Wordless Wednesday: Baby Chicks Have Found a New home
Building a Hen House- Stage 1
Over the past year one of the things my husband & I wanted to start was a chicken coop. Living outside the New Orleans area is such a gift. We are in close proximity to everything New Orleans has to offer our family: music, culture, art, history and more. But along with the city life, we enjoy our small town living. Since we have almost 2 acres of land, we are fortunate enough to have a large garden every summer and now, the opportunity to have chickens. Why Continue Reading
Creating Memories in 5 mins or Less: Lifeables #Lifeables
As a mother, there is no such thing has having too many pictures. But we take pictures not just for ourselves but for our entire family.

That is a ton of pictures floating all over cyberspace, no? Recently I discovered Lifeables.Lifeables is not a typical photo storage site it is more of a Photo Vault that Continue Reading
Don’t Run For Your Lives, Run For Combat! Combat – Source Kill Max Ant Bait and Gel Review & Giveaway Ends 9/17
One of the recent impact of Hurricane Isaac has been an influx of Ants. I overheard my coworkers discussing new bug problems since the storm had passed. Up until that point, it hadn't affected our home so it wasn't something I was too concern with. I suppose the ants were just waiting for us to make one small slip up., waiting in the shadows until we let our guard down. A few days after our power was restored our area was in danger of flooding due to the Pearl River on a continuous rise and our Continue Reading

Mr. Chewy Product Review
With all the meal planning, budgeting, & bargain shopping that I do, one thing that always passes my thoughts is dog food. Since our dog Mia is an old elderly canine, we can't just purchase just any brand of food for her. She is frail ( due to an accident she had prior to our parents adopting her) & cold weather really takes a toll on her bones. And since she doesn't get much exercise, weight management is also a factor. Mr. Chewy.com is a great resource for someone who like who is Continue Reading
The Shelter Pet Project
Back in 2004, my parents & youngest sister (then a teen) went to the local shelter to adopt a new dog. Her name was Mia. Mia was gentle, mild mannered canine who's favorite activities included, well...sleeping. Mia was adorable mature dog who had several health problems. In addition to being an older dog, she had been hit by a moving vehicle resulting in a limp to both her hind legs. It was also believed that Mia's former family had physically abusive toward her. I remember Mia when my Continue Reading
