Taking the time
Spending Time in the Kitchen: Looking Back –and Forward- at Cooking in 2013 & 2014
December 16, 2013 | 
Author I am a new contributor to Foodie.com a food & drink/cooking network and this is a post sponsored by Foodie.com. If you know me at all, you know that I don’t do anything I don’t believe in nor do I do anything I don’t want to do. I just had the opportunity to noodle around their site and find that they had tons of recipes that resonated with me – and gave me inspiration to write this post — and even better to think about cooking new things!
Get into the Holiday DIY Spirit. Project #2: Make a Wreath–from #Volvo!
As I said in the post for project #1, I am not being compensated for this. I just happen to love the gracious sharing and family-time these DIY projects make. However in light of the FTC, here’s my comments.
While I don’t need to do any disclaimer since I am not being compensated for anything in this post or the others in this series, this is a TERRIFIC series of videos courtesy of VOLVO who want you to have a great holiday season. My compensation is hopefully hearing from any and all of you who do even one of these projects. I would love to see photos either on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook or my blog.

I have been known to take some risk when it comes to the products I review. I actually try them on meself: the skincare, the hair products, the hair color, even crazy stylists & makeup artists who have done nutty things to my face or hair.
