Have you heard? There’s a New Emergency Center in North Phoenix

By: Dana Michele

Recently I noticed a the new John C. Lincoln Sonoran Health and Emergency Center just off the I-17 freeway in North Phoenix and was curious since it’s close to where I live.  I was excited when the kind folks at John C. Lincoln invited a group of local bloggers to tour their new health center. […]

Sea World San Diego’s Water Park: Aquatica

By: Dana Michele

San Diego, CA is one of our favorite destinations for a short road trip from Phoenix. This past Labor Day weekend we decided to fit in one more trip to San Diego while it was still beach weather (and to escape our 100+ degree weather at home). Besides lots of time at the beach we […]

Its Lime Tree Harvesting Season – 14 Cocktails with Lime Juice

By: Dana Michele

One great thing about the weather here in Arizona is that citrus trees grow great in backyards. We have lemon, lime and orange trees. Our lemon tree produces 100s of huge lemons in January. Our lime tree is less of a producer but increasing every year – this year I would estimate around 50 limes […]

What I Wore Wednesday

By: Dana Michele

I’m a huge fan of the idea behind The Pleated Poppy’s What I Wore blog linkup – documenting your daily outfits in an effort to get out of the sweats or yoga pants. Since losing weight and just feeling 1000x better I’ve been making an effort to dress better each day so I’m joining in for […]

Arizona Science Center’s Lost Egypt

By: Dana Michele

Disclaimer: I was provided the opportunity to visit the Arizona Science Center and Lost Egypt exhibit through a campaign with Blended Extended. All opinions are my own. My son loves science (and since I used to be a scientist before I opened a cake business that makes me a very proud mom!) so one of […]

My Love-Hate Relationship With Pinterest

By: Dana Michele

In the past two years I’ve found myself spending more and more time on Pinterest and I don’t think I’m the only one. I found it quite funny when I hosted our baseball team party earlier this year and one of the kids (7 year old boy) asked my if I got my party decorating […]

As a small business owner I find myself making monthly. or sometimes weekly, trips to an office supply store. While another large office supply chain is located closer to my shop, I most times make the trip just a bit farther for my favorite, Staples. Its one of my happy places to shop – what […]

My Favorite Things – Spring 2014 edition

By: Dana Michele

I LOVE talking about products I love. I’m pretty picky so when I find something I love it makes me very happy. Sanuk Flip Flops – comfortable shoes are very important to me. I’ve also had problems with plantar fasciitis for years and it flares up if I don’t wear supportive shoes. Living in Arizona […]

Be Crafty comes to Arizona

By: Dana Michele

I enjoy crafting especially at local crafting events, classes or just with a group of girlfriends for a mom’s night out.  My creative hobby used to be cake decorating. But when I opened Simply Sweets, it became my career and that changes things – its no longer a relaxing creative release. While I still love […]

My Rubio’s Fan – San Diego Spring Break Road Trip (part 3 of 3)

By: Dana Michele

My son LOVES Rubio’s. We eat there quite frequently because there’s one close to our house and they’re allergy friendly (for me). Our first Rubio’s stop was the original Rubio’s   My son is a big fan of the kid’s meals with taquitos and I ordered their new tilapia salad – it was dairy free […]
