Oral Health and Women's Hormones

Through a significant portion of their lives women have drastic hormone fluctuations, far more than men.  As hormone levels change, the mouth can experience irritation, bleeding, and swelling.  Regular brushing and flossing can help. Read More.

Mums

Around the middle of August grocery stores, big box garden centers, and nurseries offer potted mums for sale.  Most people enjoy them and then toss the entire thing at the end of the season.  After enjoying the splash of color on the patio or around the house, some people will try to plant the flowers in the garden.  Often the mums do not do well after being placed in the ground, disappointing the homeowner.  Here are some tips. Read More.

Chocolate Cake

Probably for most of us baking a chocolate cake is opening a box of Betty Crocker mix and following the directions. When it is done, open a can of prepared frosting and Voila! However, there are quite a few types of chocolate cake when you start searching. Read More.
