Organic Gardening Tips from Costello's
|
Winter isn't easy on most of us. Piles of ice and snow greet us weekly, and short days make brief periods of sunshine even harder to come by. That, combined with bitterly cold temperatures, means most of us wind up staying inside our well-sealed energy-efficient homes, rather than get outside for fresh air. And that could put your lungs at risk. There are a wide variety of toxic chemicals lurking in your home, and while you can take steps to minimize them, one the most prevalent chemicals in your home isn't easy to get rid of.

New Year - Lessons Learned from Sparks Ignites Blog
|
Vince G. Sparks, Writer & Blogger, Mullica Hill, NJ
It's the end of the year when many of us do some self-reflection and see what the year has brought us. Are we better or wiser for our experiences in 2014? Even if we aren't particularly the introspective type and just want to move on, the media won't let us. We turn on the TV and see news programs featuring the year in review. Magazines on the newsstand display highlights for 2014......
