Since the inception of social media, the internet has become a flurry of everyone’s thoughts. Everyone’s feelings. The sometimes reckless emotions. Their shared moments. And most of the time, the moments we share with the world are our sparkly, happiest moments. Last week in church our pastor spoke about detoxing our need to be like our neighbor. Always wanting for more, and how social media drives this to epic proportions. I encourage people to post positive, happy moments. I adore seeing my friends, family, acquaintances and though it’s not always easy, my enemies thrive. Succeed and have joy in this life...

As we enter the season of love & weddings, I share our magical engagement story that took place in the happiest place on earth. I can't believe it's taken me this long to write this story on here. Maybe it's because I felt like I already did. I told it on our old blog, Me & Mr. Charming, and I wrote it for our previous wedding website. And to this day, I still tell my girlfriends who ask or bring it up. But I wanted to share it here, and share our story, because as I meet more people at expos, and blog events, they all ask about Mr. Charming, which is so very kind :) Magnesium is probably one of most magical minerals out there. Before really taking a hold of my diet and supplementation I had no idea I needed magnesium, and that most of our systems benefit from it*. *always talk to your doctor before starting any new supplement or regiment. I'm at the point to where when I don't take it, I notice. I notice in so many ways. I notice in my muscles, in my energy levels, in my regularity (ahem, sorry but it's a miracle worker when your tummy just doesn't want to do it's thing), and in my overall nervous system... read on to see the top benefits and best natural sources... Spring is upon us, and if you're like me, someone who loves to walk & run in the great outdoors, this time of year can rain on our parades. In the form of pollen, and dust, and sometimes, even literal rain... Since cleaning up my diet, my seasonal allergies are definitely much, much better, but there are days when the pollen is so high that jogging outside gets my eyes watering & itching and invites the sneezing & sinus pressure. That's why it's good to have indoor workouts in your back pocket so that you don't miss out on your fitness, and can still get your heart rate going and the calories burning... Presenting two new raw chocolate recipes on this Friday. Celebrate the weekend with these Paleo Brownies and their delicious Raw Cacao Fudge Frosting.
A new Wanderlust post! Follow me as I take you through my favorite sights & tastes of Las Vegas. Mr. Charming and I have visited Las Vegas many times. Especially last year, when we spent almost the entire month of September there for our Anniversary and the Food Allergy Blogger Conference. It's only a four hour drive from our house and provides tons of entertainment. Although we arn't drinkers or gamblers, (I know a lot of you are thinking, what else IS there in Vegas?) we enjoy seeing the fun themed hotels, the shopping, (oh the shopping!) and all of the yummy eateries.... |
