Did You Know...?
"...I have a plethora of facts to quote to him. Everything
from protons, neutrons and electrons, to facts about the Cold War,
Stock Markets, Religion, Philosophy, art, music and so much more.
Facts that are more likely to be topics of interest on Jeopardy
as opposed to which actor is divorcing over a love interest they
met on their last movie set. Not that either of us will ever end
up on Jeopardy, but Know
It All: The Little Book of Essential Knowledge is in fact
the best book I have on hand to help me feel like the studious citizen
I wish I had time to be!" |

A Lift and Boost in All the Right
Ways
"It isn't always easy - rather, it is never easy to always
eat healthy and maintain my energy level. When you are eating on
the run or just eating when you can, you tend to eat less healthy
foods and guzzle down sugary drinks with caffeine to help keep you
going. That isn't the best combination for a healthy lifestyle!

Summer of My Blissful Miscontent
"I felt like I had started a new chapter. The part of the story
where the heroine spirals into some sort of disgusting, addictive
or slutty behavior and the reader panics wondering how she'll ever
pull it together. But for me, it was a journey I looked forward
to. Because I knew I could write the next chapter. Perhaps I'd go
back to teaching aerobics, join a rolling blade hockey team, or
take up mountain biking and meet some rough-n-tumble boy with big
hands and a great laugh on the trail. But for now, my role as a
foul mouthed, beer swilling, French fry snatching waitress was,
well, fun." |

Plus Size Women - 8 Essential Tips
(From A Man) For Looking Your Best
"Some people get suspicious when they see a man writing about
topics intimately related to women. Especially topics related to
plus size women and plus size womens clothing. Afterall, what could
a man possibly know about the challenges facing full-figured women
such as shopping for plus size clothing? What many women tend to
forget is that men are very observant when it comes to the female
species. The typical myth that men don’t notice if their wife or
girlfriend has changed her hairstyle or is wearing a new dress is
definitely not true. Most men are not clueless cavemen." |

Having It All - Perspectives And Possibilities
For Working Mothers
" You may be reading this because youve had a full-time
job and youve been building a career in an organisation. Sometimes
this has meant working late, getting in early or travelling. Although
you havent exactly relished those demands on you, youve
been able to meet them with a degree of flexibility, maybe giving
up some of the time you would have had with family or friends who
are dear to you. Or maybe youve been running your own business.
While youve had more choices about how you use your time,
youre still likely to have put in significant amounts of time
and commitment beyond the confines of a conventional working day." |

Handbag - Does Size Matter?
"Gone are the days of the moms carrying the huge bag with everything
in it including the kitchen sink. You know, the one's carrying the
first aid kit, sewing kit, scissors etc. just as my mom does. Oh,
and they need lots of pockets for all that stuff that make them
having hard time finding the keys because they don't know which
pocket it is in. My mom's a seasoned grandmother and I guess she
feels she still needs to carry everything." |

How to Look Younger - But Not Too
Young
"Many of my clients over 40 tell me that they want to look
younger, but not too young. They fear that if they follow the advice
of their daughters and the fashion magazines that they will end
up looking like they are trying to be 16. And no woman who has been
through puberty once wants to go through that again. By following
these simple tips you will be sure to stay youthful yet age appropriate." |

Why I Only Style Hair With
Round Brushes And A Hair Dryer
"Contrary to what most people believe, when using the right
technique of course, your hairstyle will last longer when blow styled.
Not only will it last longer, it will also look more natural. There
is no hairstyle that cannot be created with a round brush and a
hand held hair dryer, be it soft curls or large curls, smooth or
straight, for short or long hair, curly or straight hair, styles
with volume or less volume." |
