Let It Shine

Crocheted flowers are everywhere and I can see why. They are just so pretty. And versatile.  You can add a crocheted flower to just about anything to fancy it up. And it doesn't matter if you actually crocheted the project or have an existing item that you want to be a little bit fancier. (I read Fancy Nancy to my granddaughter last night. Can you tell?) Like what you ask? Well. Hats for sure. A blanket. A sweater or sweater dress. A pencil case. A scarf. Hairband. What else? Can you think of anything else? You get the picture. So once you have the flower all you need is a darning needle and yarn to tack the flower on. It's actually quite simple. So I guess you want a flower right? You can crochet one or you could purchase one at my Etsy Shop. If you are going to make your own crocheted flower I would guess on a scale from one to ten with one being very simple and ten being very difficult, I would say crocheting these flowers are about a seven.  I...

Are you on Tsu ?  Have you even ever heard of tsu (pronounced Sue)?  I didn't until the other day when I was visiting someone's blog they mentioned it.  I clicked on their shortcode and within minutes I created my account.  So what is  Tsu  and why should you sign up? Tsu is a social media platform but there is a difference. It pays you for your content!  The more relevant a user’s content and the larger their network, the proportionally greater the monetization is. You can only sign up for tsu through invite or by using a member’s shortcode . The beauty of it? You receive your own shortcode when you sign up and you can invite all your friends and family! Your content is not hidden from your friends and followers as it is on Facebook. If you post content on Facebook about 5% of your friends see it. On tsu ? ALL your friends see it!  I spend a good portion of my time advertising my content, not only, on Facebook but ...

Most Diets Fail That's right. The one thing you should know before starting a diet is that most diets fail. There are thousands of people dieting right now but the general consensus is that nearly 95% of them will not be able to lose the weight and keep it off. Here is an interesting post called  Do 95% of Dieters Really Fail? I honestly believe most diets do fail because I just so happen to be one of those people who has tried and failed. Well maybe that wasn't a diet. More like change my eating habits. I'm doomed. These are the Most Common Reasons that Diets Fail: 1. Many diets are way too strict. When a diet puts too many restrictions on the types and quantity of food it becomes practically impossible to stick to it. A diet that bans my favourite foods like chips, chocolate, ice cream, or cheese leaves me feeling like I am torturing myself.  I might last a few days or weeks but I always give in and over indulge on actually anyt...
