This week is the official No-Cook week! All the recipes only use a grill or microwave – and take less than 30 minutes. SCORE! Also, my favorite no-bake Chocolate and Peanut Butter Bars are featured.

Well, my friends. This is a bittersweet moment. Back in January I had a (seemingly) brilliant idea to create the Intentional Life Project.

This consequently drove me to full-fledge research, because you me, I don’t do anything without research! While Mary Kay is a more long-standing name when it comes to skincare by […]
