Yoga?  I have done it a few times and loved it... Need to get back into it at some point.   Anyways, got an email and thought I would share, for you locals!   Get ready to strike a yoga pose on Mondays,  July 10 and August 7, 2017  from  6 p.m. to 7 p.m.  in the meadow at Park Tavern during free classes with Westside Yoga’s founder Amber Barry. Any yoga experience is welcome, so participants are invited to bring a friend, a yoga mat, a towel and a water bottle and enjoy sunset over Midtown’s picturesque skyline. Attendees ages 21 and up can also take advantage of a complimentary house beer on Park Tavern’s expansive patio after the class. Held rain or shine, if summer showers appear, classes will be held under Park Tavern's Garden Tent.   For more information visit Park Tavern  or Westside Yoga .   Park Tavern, a favorite neighborhood bar, restaurant, brewery and events facility, is located on the Atlanta BeltL...

There is no hiding the fact that both of my children suffer from eczema.  Broxton had it bad as a baby and now that he is 8, it is pretty much no longer an issue.  Savannah, on the other hand, has had major issues, even more so than Broxton.  When I was invited to EcoHome in Atlanta for an author book signing, I was excited to go and see what new products would catch my attention.  While there, I spotted their display for a new (to me) product line, Key West Aloe.

The last few months have been a bit hectic, so I hate that I was not able to share my new found love of Silver Sculptor's jewelry for Mothers Day. Let me tell you this though, just because Mothers Day has passed, it doesn't mean that you can not give a WONDERFUL gift of love. You could give it as a gift "just because" or for a late Mothers Day, this is a gift that needs to be given!   Don't just stop at moms either... They have great gifts for dads and the grandmother of my children (my mom) has been asking me for mine, so like I said... NOT JUST FOR MOMS!   FTC Compliant Review Policy:   The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing.
