 I found I could relate to this quote by Aristotle.  My divorce was the darkest time in my life.  The only way I could begin to see even a flicker of light was when I put my faith, my hope, and my fears in God's hands.   If you are on this journey, I hope you are able to see a light.  If not, keep looking, and you will because even though it may seem hidden, it is there. God Bless You! KathieyV

For weeks all my daughter, Stephanie,  has talked about is Buoy Bowls .  She would go on about how wonderful they were.  She would stalk them to find out where they would be on what felt like a daily basis.  I finally gave in and said "Ok, I want to give them a try".  So off we went and I was not  disappointed. They were amazing. You will see quotes from their website in purple print, to match their truck:-) "Buoy Bowls is the end result of an obsession with Acai Bowls  that first started on a surf trip to San Diego, California in 2005. " "...he discovered the Acai Bowl- a bowl of frozen purred acai berries topped  with a variety of fresh fruit and honey. It was absolutely love at first bite!" "Our acai bowls and smoothies are made using the freshest organic and locally sourced ingredients whenever possible." As you can see Maggie loves them too... My favorite was the Surfs Up Bowl.  Chocolatey fruity goodn...
