Let’s think back to that day when we got our period for the very first time.

Up to that point, the extent of my knowledge of this miracle of menstruation...

6 months a go, if someone had told that I was would be writing about healthy foods and recipes, I would have advised them that aliens had indeed landed and to be careful, because one had clearly taken over my body. I've never been one to be all about the veggies yet, here I am today with a healthy snacking option and I swear, I'm not an alien. My new year resolution this year was to start...

Thursday December 1, 2011 by Nora

A while ago, I wrote a little ditty about how much I love surprises. Because the Universe doesn’t differentiate the intricacies of the English language, it took me literally and delivered me a surprise that can only be described as one doozy of a humdinger.

No, not a baby left on my doorstep. Not a puppy in a basket. Not a long-lost twin that my parents had been hiding from me. Not even a...
