The National Psoriasis Foundation and Leo Pharmacy put on a wonderful event for prominent psoriasic disease bloggers. I love being able to get together with my psoFamily! …

Yesterday started my FAVORITE part of summers in Pittsburgh – free yoga classes on Sunday down in Market Square! YAY YAY YAY!

The other day I was walking, ok crutching, through Whole Foods and started craving a PB&J. Mmmmm it sounded DELISH. Especially if it was the coconut oil peanut butter. But, of course, I can’t have bread . . . Or peanuts . . . Or most jellies. Boooooooo! What fun is that? Then I had a …
