Before starting the steps, let me tell you about my Christmas this year. Like any other year, my family gathers at my parents’ house, kids and adults, around a large table next to a buffet where food is presented. Before dinner, when the kids were younger, we asked Santa and his elves to join us and entertain us with Christmas […]
Who needs a spa if you can have one at home? Did you know that you can get rid of all the accumulated stress from a frantic day or a hectic week by preparing a relaxing warm bath, that is if you have a tub of course. Whether you’re home or happen to be in a luxurious hotel, having a […]
Let me guess! You’re stuck at home, confined, nothing much to do. You finished reading your favorite books, watched your favorite movies on Netflix several times, you’re out of ideas. The moment you open your eyes, you wonder how will your day pass without getting bored. You’re not the only one. We are all glued on our couch each afternoon […]

I remember some from my grandmother who taught it to my mother, and here I am writing what my mother taught me (my mother-in-law as well). I added some recent online haicks which I found […]

Hosting Halloween parties with a small number of invitees respecting the social distancing is an option, while thinking of costumes which can replace face masks.

Whether you’re living in a house, townhouse or apartment, your relationship with your neighbor is similar to a serious commitment. You have to put up with each others’ flaws, so not that easy to get out of it. You can either be lucky enough to have good neighbors who take care of you whenever you’re in need and watch over […]
You met the man/woman of your dreams and you felt they’re the one. You take your relationship to the next level and decide to introduce them to your parents.
