So we are in the first 6 days of taking a step towards our health with a Hydration Challenge and the handle fell off my water pitcher yesterday! Yes, I had just grabbed it out of the dishwasher and filled it to my daily mark for half my body weight in water and was pouring two cups in the blender to make sugar-free lemonade, when I got my second shower of the day.

Adding Party Planner to my business card
I have always loved celebrating people and holidays. It's a tradition passed down from my mama that both helps me remember the good times I have had and to press ahead to make new memories!

Trim Healthy Mama Guilt Gone Cranberry Pie Recipe & Review

I don't think I've ever had a cranberry pie pre-THM; but, this pie recipe reminded me of a coffee cake. It was good! And.... drumroll...the Salesman liked it, too.
