4 IngredientsAs much as I've tried and forced myself to like it, I must admit...I do NOT like to cook.  At first, I thought that if I had the proper utensils and equipment, my love of cooking would sprout and flourish, but unfortunately, that wasn't the case.  Since I don't want to serve my family any of the highly processed packaged foods for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and since I myself am quite a picky eater, what should I do?

Well, thankfully, two gals from across the pond have written my kind of cookbook.  It's called 4 Ingredients: More Than 400 Quick, Easy and Delicious Recipes Using 4 or Fewer Ingredients.  The great thing is that the longest part of this cookbook is the title.

These recipes are designed to get you in and out of the kitchen and grocery store in a hurry without sacrificing the taste or healthfulness of the food you serve.  Keep reading to learn more about the cooking concept which has taken Australia and the UK by storm!

I reviewed the 4 Ingredients: More Than 400 Quick, Easy and Delicious Recipes Using 4  or Fewer Ingredients cookbook from 4 Ingredients, which retails for $18.00, but is currently on sale for $12.09 with FREE SHIPPING.

ScentsyBabyproofing your home is one of the many things that a parent needs to do in order to ensure the safety of their children.  Having a baby-safe house can be a tad inconvenient at times when you have to climb over childproof gates or pry the electrical covers out of a socket every time you need to use it.

But of course, these steps are essential for our children's safety and not that big of a deal.  The one thing I miss though, is my ability to burn candles around the house.  I LOVE the way a great smelling candle's aroma permeates through the house and instantly lifts my mood.

Scentsy makes a wide variety of wonderfully SAFE products which provide all the benefits of a burning candle without any of the drawbacks.  Keep reading to learn whether or not Scentsy has replaced typical candles in our home.

I reviewed the Lisbon Full-Size Warmer from Scentsy consultant Cassie Stevens, which retails for $30.00 and the Lush Gardenia Scentsy Bars which retail for $5.00.

Kate and William Sound the trumpets! After eight long years, Prince William and Catherine ("Waitie Katie") Middleton will walk down the aisle Friday in a fairytale wedding. Contrary to all the pomp and circumstance, the happy couple actually lead a very modest life in a $1,200-a-month farmhouse in Angsley, Wales. If William wasn't heir to the throne, one gets the feeling they might plan a more intimate and reasonably priced affair. That doesn't mean they'd have to forgo all the bells and whistles, however.

If you're planning a wedding and would like to exchange vows in a more royal fashion on a limited budget, read on for 15 tips to help you tie the knot in style without sacrificing your savings.
