Scattered in among my current thoughts about houses, summer sandals and particle physics (no, not really!) are a few things you can actually benefit from: my thoughts on healthy oils for your skin. I have two cost-conscious favorites: almond oil and coconut oil. My splurge oil is jojoba. I’m sure there are a multitude of more »

Now that I have swung my feet over the top of the proverbial Hill, I find another demon to wrestle…my vanity.
