Guest Post : 5 Myths About Weddings

People have a lot to say about weddings. They’re one of those topics that people like to talk about at parties. Opinions are not just varied, they’re unique and wildly different from each other.

The Bloggers Hangout – The Bloggers Tea Party

On Monday I was invited to another event held by The Bloggers Hangout – The Bloggers Tea Party.

The brands involved in The Bloggers Tea Party were primarily those that can be found in health food stores such as Whole Foods and Planet Organic  As there is such a focus on being health conscious in modern day, especially for me with starting a new health kick and trying to cut out certain types of foods.
