Photo by Mark Fletcher-Brown As a follow-up to my last post, I wanted to talk more about the importance of figuring out your “reason.” Your “Why.” And your “why” may even change from time to time, (growth perhaps) but there are actually anti-aging benefits to always having one.

This post is an attempt to do my part in helping to eliminate some plastic from the environment. And the plastic that I’m referring to is the plastic used to manufacture the bottles that contains some of those pills in our over-drugged society. I am asking you to help me to rid the planet of …
I was trying to decide what my first blog post, post-tragedy, (post talking about tragedy) should be about. I didn’t want to write about what’s been on my mind, because I’m guessing I’ve depressed ya’ll enough. I’m struggling, but I’m trying. My Noodle was no quitter. Nor am I. (But there have been days.

I remember learning about inflammatory diets and how they affected your body in my culinary program, but that was 20 years ago and I can’t say I’ve given it much thought since …
If you’ve been with me for a while, you know that the purpose of this blog is to share anti-aging, inspirational, and health focused information and experiences. (As well as a funny story or two.) The original concept was to write for women. (And the men that loved them.) Clearly, I wanted men to understand …
WOW. That was the name of a podcast I intended to produce with my daughter. It stood for Whine Over Wine, or Wine over Whine, I kept changing my mind. It could also stand for Women on Women. (And not in a sexual way! No fantasy here. This here is real!) It could stand for …
