Never go to bed angry with the one you love. How many times have you heard that line? Even if we hear it one too many times, there is truth to that saying. While you could stay up and fight, once it’s resolved you both go to bed happy in each other’s arms without the [...]
What do you call this fruit? They look like tiny oranges and are a little bit bigger than calamansi. No need to peel or slice these little things. Just pop one into your mouth or bite right into it. It is citrusy sweet and very refreshing! I was told it also soothes a sore [...]

Happy Valentine’s Day!
Do you have any special date tonight? Do you have any special traditions with your friends and loved ones? Ooooh, exciting. Whatever your plans are on Valentine’s day, enjoy, enjoy, enjoy. H & I don’t have any Valentine’s Day traditions because we treat every day like Valentine’s. *MUSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHH!* Heehee. Sorry, I couldn’t help [...]
