Due to that, the loaf may have a slightly different texture or may not rise as well since it is made with no eggs but it was still a great...

While walking through the aisle of the grocery store the other day, I stumbled upon these famous pogo sticks that were so popular in my childhood years.

Maamoul are a Lebanese traditional dessert especially around Easter.  They are a Lebanese pastry that come in several fillings ranging from dates, pistachios, to walnuts and more.

I hate removing my makeup especially after a long night when all you want to do is sleep.  I always try to find the easiest yet most effective ways to remove my makeup. A while ago, I came across the Makeup Eraser at my local Sephora store. But this thing is sold at 24 Canadian dollars... for ONE cloth. I don't know about...

No one can deny the progress and advantages technology has provided us within the last 10 years. Whether it's in the medical field, in the educational system or in the obvious day-to-day life, technology has altered much of what was previously unnecessary behaviors into an automatic stream of habits we don't need to think twice about. For many, waking up in the morning...
