It’s Smoothie Season!

When life spirals out of control… you buy smoothies. Hi, friends, it’s been awhile. It hasn’t been a lack for anything to say, it’s been more of a lack of time.

Fit Friday: Athleta Hyper Focused sports bra review.

Welcome to the Apple house.

I almost think sometimes I should rename my blog to La Casa de Mac or Life at the Apple House instead of Life at the Quarry. I’m a huge fan of Apple. Always have been, for as long as I can remember. I’ve always worked on Macs too. My job at the Real Estate Book […]

A Cherry Carmex kind of love

I don’t know about you, but I was once an addict of Chap Stic. I’m sure all all of have have been at one point in life or still are a bit of an addict. After reading an article where studies proved over use of Chap Stic and Blistex type sticks actually made your lips […]
