The Best Buy Wedding Registry is Something for Him and Her.

Sponsored Post  One of the most exciting things after you’ve said yes to the proposal,  and finally nailed down a date for your upcoming nuptials is the registering of the gifts. Usually, the Bride is way more excited about this than the Groom as this is when their inner Martha Stewart comes out.   So you go to big box stores or a local department store and you pick out your vases, linens, kitchen gadgets, and, of course, the fine China.

Drink Responsibly. Hey Yall! It’s been a while since I served you up a good acholic beverage. The past couple of weeks has brought several new visitors to the site to check out The Southern Porch Sipper, which was the first cocktail I featured on the site back in I believe June of 2014.  The SMIRNOFF® SOURS bottle caught my eye as I was making my rounds through the spirits section of the Wine and Spirits store and I had to bring it home.

Heal Dry Itchy Skin with New Vaseline Intensive Care Healing Serum.

People have mixed emotions when it comes to winter. The start of winters signals the singing of Christmas Carols and decking of the halls as people began to get ready for the holidays. To others, winter unleashes a dread as the air becomes dryer and the cold begins to reek havoc on one’s skin. Last winter I dealt with extreme dry itchy skin that led to many nights of praying that I’d fall asleep before I gave into the urge to scratch. I probably will never forget the cold showers or the constant worry that I’d run out of body…
