Justified’s Cathy Baron Cooks Up a Storm and Shares Her Videos – and Recipes– with LifeKraze.com!
I like the site www.LifeKraze.com. It’s about site directed towards sharing your life, what’s currently on your plate- life goals both large and small (like me cleaning up my desk for good. 50% of the way there guys!) along with other achievements or fun things you have experienced. A better description is that it’s about a global look at your life and what’s going on and sharing it with others. Getting encouragement when you need it and kudos when you achieve it.
