New Diggs

     Recently, I announced that we'd be moving to a new website with broader content and a new vision. Well, as I've been moving articles from our archives here over to the website, I've been working on the new website's layout and organization. I am very excited to finally be able to announce the new web address for this project!



     You'll still get the same informative and entertaining content right at your fingertips, as well as tips, tricks, and product information, but you'll have it delivered right to your inbox! Just enter your email address in the subscribe box and keep up to date with spa indulgences even better than before!

     And don't worry, this blog isn't going anywhere right this second! I'll still be here with reminder posts for a little while linked to what's new on the new website, giving you plenty of time to make the transition yourself.

Leave your thoughts, comments, suggestions, and questions here. Do you think this move is a good step forward for us?

We're moving!

     Hello all! As I expand this endeavor, it seems that a change of venue is warranted. It seems that my vision for this has expanded, and I've outgrown Blogger's format. The new website is in its raw version as of now, but that will change shortly. The plan right now is to begin importing older posts from here into the archives on the new site.


     This doesn't mean this blog will now be abandoned! Things on this side of the internet-verse will begin transitioning slowly, and you'll have plenty of time to make the move, too. I'll be posting the new web address shortly.


     In other news, my birthday is fast approaching on the 18th. To celebrate, I'll be announcing a giveaway beginning Monday! Stay tuned for all these new and exciting changes coming for us in the blogosphere!

You are what you eat.

     My apologies for my extended absence! Our laptop's power cord died, and we had to wait for another to arrive. Do you have any idea how clean my house is because of all this?! I had nothing else to do but clean. We don't have cable, so I attacked every pile of laundry and dusty baseboard in my house! Whew... thank goodness that cord got here!


     Anyway, we do get Netflix and can stream instantly with our Xbox, so I did watch a few movies while the little one slept. One movie I really got a lot out of was actually a documentary. Food Matters tackled issues involving toxins in and toxins out, the value of good food, and just how much your diet affects your health.


     I would recommend this documentary to anyone concerned with their health and skincare! For more information about great foods for your skin, read my post on magical foods.



Basically, YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.

New Endeavors

     My husband is constantly telling me I have way too many hobbies. I was in a creative mood recently, and I found some old sketches I'd done during one of my college Lit. classes. I decided to play around with them on the computer and ended up putting together a second Etsy shop. I just decided to dive in, I suppose!


     SO, I'm slowly but surely putting together listings. I'm focusing on inspirational artwork, as I really have a love for quotes and words. If you'd like to check out more of my art as it is listed, check out The Inspirational Art of Elizabeth Barry on Etsy. 







What is your newest endeavor?
