The Many Ways Cinnamon Oil Will Change Your Life

I'm a big fan of cinnamon and I use it often. Every time I bake something sweet, I put some cinnamon in it, even if the recipe doesn't explicitly call for it. I burn cinnamon oil a lot in my home to make it smell more warm and cozy. While I don't typically ingest or topically use cinnamon oil (and please get a doctor's advice if you do!), I

Life Update! Where Have I Been, Yo?

https://youtu.be/ZYmMfIag6hs?si=Dy9K9sGe0csqZFBN I always watched this cartoon when Bear was a baby so we both could learn Russian. The cartoon no longer airs but I love the theme song. Hello family! I hope all of you are doing wonderful and great. I haven't blogged in a week. While that's not a big deal to you, it's a huge deal to me since I've been blogging rather frequently. I got into a

Why Being Too Honest Will Actually Hurt YOU.

As I've read and listened to various snippets over the past week about Jada Pickett Smith's forthcoming tell-all memoir and some of the devastating revelations, I wonder some things other people have: Why? Now, hear me out: I'm all for people speaking their truth whatever their truth is. The Bible says the truth shall set you free and apparently, it works for a lot of people. And for some people,

10 Amazing Ways to Use Apple Cider Vinegar to Clean!

So, I've been on a mission to clean smarter and not harder. As much as I love bleach, sometimes I really don't need to use it and let's face it, it's not something I want to use often. However, I have become a huge fan of vinegar. The one thing about vinegar, however, is that it smells. It smells really bad, actually. Yes, it can clean like a mofo,

We Tried the Zero Flying Insect Trap. But Is it Worth the Money?

We get a lot of flies. Regular flies. Fruit flies. Gnats. Whatever those damn things with wings that tend to love my coffee and wine more than I do. While we have have a fly trap in our backyard (a review on that will be coming later!), I felt we needed something inside our home to get the flies who somehow escape the death trap of the fly bag.

The One FREE App I Can’t Live Without!

So, I like free. I mean, who doesn't? Even if it's something useless, you'll still like it because it is free. But if it's something useful? Well, the possibilities are endless. I have a lot of free apps on my phone, but there's one that I use on a regular basis and I swear up and down by it. It's for iPhones and Apple Watches (I apologize in advance

The Origins of Ksenfully Good and its Future

About 10 years ago (crazy, huh?), I started this blog to document my high-risk pregnancy with Bear. Back then, there wasn't too much information about high-risk pregnancies other than some online groups. While I had something in common with those groups, I needed an outlet to share and document my journey. Thus this blog was born. This blog has undergone a lot of name changes. Some of you might

This is Why Jessie Lee Ward’s Death was Stupidly Preventable.

I'm going to admit something - I had no idea who Jessie Lee Ward was until I read about her being close to death and then eventually dying. I'm part of an anti-MLM group on Reddit as I like to know exactly what is the bullshit my friends keep trying to sell to me. They never mentioned Jessie Lee Ward, surprisingly, in any of their posts. Maybe it was
