Juicing to Stay on Top of Your Health
Since contracting Lyme disease 21 years ago, I have been desperately trying to find ways to be as healthy as I can be. I’ve learned that I can buy a lot of things in this life, but health is not one of them. The good news is that I can buy some things that can help me get healthier, and a juicer is one of those things. -
Prepare Some Colorado Peaches Two Ways
The Grand Valley’s hot days and cool nights are perfect for growing some of the best peaches in the world. Harvested in the fall, the temperatures bring out the natural sugars, making them sweet and loaded with chin-dripping juice -
Friendship is a Responsibility
Being friends is not an opportunity. We don't find ourselves in friendships because we were given the luxury of simply having a friend. Friendship is a responsibility. To have a friend we must BE a friend. You cannot expect friends to be a part of your life simply just to be there. Friends want love back. Friends want us there. As a friend, you have a responsibility! -
Pour Up This Colorado Bulldog Cocktail
Ever had a Colorado Bulldog? It’s like a White Russian, but the Bulldog is finished off with equal amounts of cream and cola, instead of just cream. The cola adds a nice flavor, and makes a creamy drink a little less creamy. Give it a try! -

Learning to Quiet Judgement While Continuing to Love
My mom taught me a few things. By watching her, I learned that I didn’t want to be negative. My mom Edna was one of the most negative people I’ve known. If she were a cartoon character, she would have been drawn with a persistent black cloud over her head. She was also very dramatic. -
Serve Up Some Classic Cajun Jambalaya
You may have heard the proper way to pronounce New Orleans is "NAW-lins," but locals will tell you that's not the case. Say "New Or-LEENZ," with a long E sound, and you’re also off the mark. Most locals opt for the simple "New OR-lins," and some even say it with four syllables: "New AHL-lee-ins. Me? I pronounce it “GREAT FOOD!” -
Our Friends Are Our World
If you have a best friend, realize how important you are to them! There are billions of people on this planet and fate intertwined your paths! We may seem minuscule in the vastness of our population, but know that you are a major component in the lives of friends!

When Life Throws a Curveball, Hit It Out of the Park
Life is a series of surprises, heartaches, joys, tragedies, renewals, and redirections. If you remain flexible--even through the curve balls--you can navigate it all. If not, you may find yourself in a struggle. I think I am a little of both. I know that my transitory childhood taught me to be flexible, and I’ve used that skill where I’ve needed it most--being a mom. -
It's Not About Where You Are, It's About Who You Are With
We would also spend the Fourth of July on the lake. The coolest thing to do was sit at a window seat in any of the high-rise restaurants that had a view. A large barge would go out to the middle of the lake and at sundown and start shooting off fireworks. -
Walking In When the Rest Walk Out
Life is hard. We're told this all of the time. We experience this. True friends are there for us through EVERYTHING. That means the good AND the bad. It's very easy to share in someone's joy and happiness. It's much harder to realize and help them through their hardships and struggles. This is why most are "unavailable" at these times. You are lucky if you have a friend who is there for you ALWAYS. Return the favor - be there for them! . -
Mix Up a Classic New Orleans Sazerac
