This post includes affiliate links. CHOCOLATE The best gift ever when it’s made by one of her kids. Truffles have always been a favorite of mine. I love receiving truffles, and I’ve made many varieties over the years – dark, milk, white; coated with nuts, cocoa powder, melted chocolate. You really can’t go wrong with […]
Last night I had the privilege to attend a modest, but touching ceremony. It was organized by The Community Military Appreciation Committee of Vancouver, Washington. CMAC hosts a stunning variety of events focused on supporting our military. They jumped in with Our Community Salutes as it fits perfectly with their “MOS”. “Our Community Salutes was […]
2MyHero receives orders from all across the United States. From the Northwest corner of Washington State to the Southwest shores of Florida and most states in between. If you’re curious, the only states we’ve not yet received orders from are Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Arkansas, Vermont, and Rhode Island. The highlight for me this week was […]
How many of you were big time fans of the Creamsicle ice cream bars as a kid? I was. I didn’t get them very often, which might be part of the reason they are such a fond memory. They were a very special treat, and as such I savored each one. A friend of mine […]
Coco Chanel didn’t really have much in common with the military. Probably nothing. But, this is one of my favorite quotes. It’s true of so many things.

Phlegmatic, Choleric, Sanguine and Melancholic. The Greek physician Hippocrates (c. 460 – c. 370 BC) incorporated the four temperaments into his medical theories as part of the ancient […]
How do those three go together? Well, they don’t really. Not directly. But they are all linked to 2MyHero‘s recent posts on Instagram, Pinterest and YouTube. Personally, I’ve been chewing on this quote for a few days now. It is easy for me to look back on situations and realize how true this statement is. […]
This week on MRE Remix I combined several different MRE items into a really delicious treat. I usually taste whatever I make, but I don’t usually end up eating the whole thing. This one was so tasty, I ate the whole thing! Admittedly, I’ve been inspired recently watching last year’s run of the Great British […]
