The WorryWoo Monsters, a series by Andi Green, was first seen in a New York art exhibition in 2001. Originally called The Monsters in My Head, Green wanted to create characters with a story that each embodied an emotion. Using her design and illustration background she built 5 light boxes each containing a monster with its story Xerox-transferred to the front of the box. From loneliness to confusion, she began tackling complicated feelings and transformed them into quirky, loveable characters. Her message of “embrace your emotions” received such a positive response, she was asked by many if she ever … [Read more...]

My love for Lexus started the second I slipped into the ES 350, however the ES was not quite big enough to haul the entire family around and sometimes I need a vehicle that is big enough for us all to go somewhere. The LX 570 is not a small vehicle! It's a big, heavy beast that can pack people and cargo like no "SUV" I have ever seen, plus it can tow really big loads! Specifically designed for versatility, usability and luxury. But as with all Lexus vehicles, luxury comes first. The Lexus LX 570 comes with advanced safety, comfort and quality features that you will quickly grow to love, if you can … [Read more...]

Transitions Lenses

I found out I needed glasses when I was twelve years old. I also found out that my eyes were overly sensitive to light, the doctor called it photosensitivity. Basically what it means is bright lights really hurt my eyes and sunglasses are a must for me when I am out and about. However it is so annoying to have to carry around two pairs of glasses- one for inside, one for outside. Well, with Transitions Lenses I no longer have to carry two pairs! Anyone who wears glasses or sunglasses (prescription or not) can wear Transitions lenses – they have options for every lifestyle, every age, and a … [Read more...]
Pink Himalayan Roasted Cabbage

Last weekend my husband found a killer deal on cabbage. To be honest, I have never ate cabbage, ever. But he promised he knew what to do with it so we bought a few heads. A week later, the cabbages were still sitting on my counter so I decided that I needed to cook them! I've never cooked cabbage before so I turned to my trusty Pinterest to find something and boy did I. Here is my recipe adapted from Martha Stewarts. Ingredients: 4-6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 cabbage, cut into 1-inch slices Himalayan Pink Salt Cracked Black Pepper Directions: Preheat oven to 400 … [Read more...]
