I know this is a bit late since I have had this hairstyle for a few months now…but **shrug**. Folks, it was time for a change. You know the saying: New year, new me!

A lot families that, when asked, can name a recipe that is special to them. In other words, their signature family recipe. Mine is no different.

Sunscreen. It’s important…not only for my over 35 year old skin, but for all skin types. I won’t lie to you–I used to be a tanning queen back when Jersey Shore and GTL were a thing.
