Clean & Green
Here's a collection of my favorite natural cleaning formulas, concoctions
and witches brews. MOST are safe and nontoxic, with a few exceptions which are clearly noted.
Use the ingredients listed below when making your own alternative cleaners, most are
inexpensive and you probably already have many of them in your kitchen cupboards.

The number of young people suffering from liver disease caused by alcohol has more than doubled since Labour came to power.
Damning figures show 6,495 Britons aged 18 to 40 were admitted to hospital suffering from alcoholic liver disease in 2006/07, compared to 2,967 a decade ago.
In the same period, there were 43,548 admissions across all age groups for the disease, with a further 27,040 cases related to the toxic effects of alcohol.

Being a character on the CW’s “Gossip Girl” isn’t easy. First off, there is the scandal. We’re talking mental breakdowns, drug problems, unwanted pregnancies, eating disorders, and underage drinking… and that was just Season 1!

From “I love those…” to “I wouldn’t want to be in their…” shoes have undoubtedly held a special place in Hollywood history. Come to think of it, shoes in general have a general oversight that goes unmatched by any other article of clothing or accessory. Civilized people, mostly of the female population, will spend hours on end shopping the malls to find the perfect pair, and usually can’t pick just one.

5 tablespoons dark honey
Ca. 1 cup (2 dl) ABSOLUT VANILIA
2 pints (1 liter) unsweetened apple juice
5 whole cloves
1 vanilla pod
2 cinnamon sticks
This is how you do it
Put one tablespoon of honey into each of five wine glasses.

Today I thought I'd focus on roses. No idea why, really, but I've noticed that there are an abudance of beauty recipes out there that involve roses in one way or another, so I thought I'd compile them for you in one easy place!

I have always cherished a good "how we met" story - and, though at this time I am single, I have some really good stories to share: (my favorites are the ones from my travels even if they didn't result in real relationship)
These are the basics, read on for more details:
(1) on a university bus (2) via a 8 hour phone conversation (3) on a train - due to a lost wallet (4) on an awful walking tour in Germany - due to pouring rain (5) In a hostel - due to needing a pot to cook with
**1* (3 year relationship - College Boyfriend)
I met my college boyfriend on our University Shuttle Bus. I happened to be sitting next to a boy that I had been crushing on for a few weeks, and had just discovered that he was in a long term relationship!
So, being surprised (and a little hurt) at the discovery, I promptly made eye contact and smiled at the very cute, very tall guy across the aisle.
