R.I.P Patrick Swayze


"Nobody puts baby in a corner..." - Patrick Swayze as Johnny Castle in Dirty Dancing

Another great loss for the entertainment world, Patrick Swayze, the man who made every woman wish to be stuck in a corner, has died after succumbing to pancreatic cancer. A terrific actor, a beautiful dancer, and a wonderful humanitarian (and the star of my all-time favorite film, Dirty Dancing), he will be sadly missed by all who lived to see him in his prime. My thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family.

Don't ever forget how important your regular health check ups are all my beaut*eh*ful followers....xoxo

Ever heard of orthorexia? Neither had we.

A must read for anyone who has every skipped the bread, the milk, the dairy, etc.
