The first thing I discovered when I went to discover Franklin Tennessee was that the entire state is closed on Sunday. Except the day spas. The first one I went to only had massage therapists working that day. However, Woodhouse Spa was open from… Continue Reading “Woodhouse Spa”
I had seen the Colgate Wisp advertised, but hadn’t tried them. I thought it was a brilliant idea but I don’t like the price. I think it was $2.50 for a 4-pack. But I forgot to pack toothpaste on this, of all trips, when I… Continue Reading “Colgate Wisp”

Sometimes when I am all stressed out at work, I take the longish walk to Jamba Juice and get a smoothie for lunch. I went in last week and got the pumpkin smash. I heard it was “pumpkin pie through a straw”. It actually… Continue Reading “Pumpkin Smash”
