Sunday, Jan. 19 is a date to keep in mind if you plan to make a New Year’s Resolution this year. That’s because research has shown that only 18 days after they’ve set their intention for a new year, the majority of people ditch their New Year’s Resolution by Jan. 19. One fitness app has […]
Merry Christmas, everyone! Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays celebrating old traditions and creating new traditions. Our tradition is having Papa Price and Grammi Reardon over for breakfast on Christmas morning. Then, unwrapping presents (that were probably just wrapped the night before, if I am going to be honest.) The boys play while the adults […]
The other night my husband and I tried a new restaurant for dinner. The entire experience was great. The place is cozy, the holiday décor was charming, the food was delicious and the service was some of the best we’ve had. What really stuck with us, however, is how the experienced ended.

With the holidays (and my birthday) fast approaching, I was tasked with making a wish list to give to family, and like many people, my list contained books. I love to read, and I know I’m not alone in wanting to discuss what I read with people, so I decided to look into how to […]
It’s hard to believe here we are at the end of October already, and the last two months of the year are a hop and a skip away. Another month has passed and it can be summed up in field trips and no illnesses. Okay, so Oliver did have a runny nose and his first […]
Summer has officially come to an end, and with it ends vendor-event season. That’s not to say there aren’t events all year, but outdoor farmers markets and artisan markets are primarily summer happenings. Since I’m a self-published author, I love attending these types of events as a vendor. One of my favorite things about the […]
Last week at a local service club meeting, where I spoke about the importance of community newspapers, I had the pleasure of dining with members before the business portion of the meeting. One of those members happens to be a poker buddy of and neighbor to my dad (View Newspaper Group Publisher Wes Smith). While […]
