As a nurse, nutrition specialist and mother, Rose inspires me with her practical and creative advice regarding healthy eating and snacking habits for active, sports-minded teens. Her research and advice can be easily adapted to meet the needs of each individual in the entire family, as well, and the fact that she encourages questions and is open to suggested topics, strongly appeals to me, too! I look forward to every new post from Rose!

Corrine captures my imagination and inspires me with wild color combinations and the poetic way each story she tells unfolds. Just click on this link and you will immediately see what I mean--why she inspires me so much. Look at the fantastic explosion of rich colors that greet you the moment the page opens. This artist is very busy with cloth and paint and everything else.

If Carole and I lived closer to each other we would most certainly have monthly outings—we would scope out all the best places to find everything from antiques to “someone’s junk” (our artistic treasures, of course!) then end our day with some unique treats and tea’s and that sort of thing! Carole is an amazing artist and photographer and inspires me to follow my own heart WITH passion and withOUT hesitation!

I think I found Catherine one day while I was looking through one of my art quilt magazines. I was amazed at the vivid creations jumping off the pages; it seemed like I could almost touch the fabrics, everything was so detailed yet uncomplicated. I was wowed! I derive immense inspiration from her work. So amazingly colorful and versatile—from painting to quilting, everything in between and combinations, too! Check out her blog, you’ll also fascinating photography and heartwarming stories.
