It’s fun to discover new accounts to follow, so I thought I’d share some of my top picks that always keep me entertained.  Cardi B ( iamcardib ):   Okay, this year was totally cra-cra for Cardi and all of us watching.

Hey guys, it’s Ronni ! It turns out that January 10 is National Cut Your Energy Costs Day. Now, I don’t know much about energy, but I thought I’d use this opportunity to talk about conserving another invaluable resource – water.  I’m sure you’ve heard about common ways to save water, like taking shorter showers, not running the tap when you brush your teeth, using water-efficient appliances, and using timers for your lawn sprinklers. But I’d like share a few other under the radar ways that can help conserve water. Check them out: #1. Use a Car Wash Did you know that washing your car at home can use an average of 100 gallons of water? You read that right - 100 gallons!

Hey there, it’s  Ronni Hawk ! In this fast-paced world, we get so busy with our own lives that we often forget to stop and think how other people are doing. But the reality is – many here in the United States and around the world face major hardships on a daily basis. And I really wanted to do more to help.  This is why I become interested in  volunteering . Volunteering allows all of us to reach out and touch someone’s life.  It’s a chance to make a direct, positive impact on the world, and that’s something that I increasingly value. As a long-time volunteer and advocate for  The Thirst Project , I have been given the opportunity to shed some light on an organization that does very important work by helping bring clean water to millions of people across the globe. I’ve been active with them for years (even before I starred in  Stuck in the Middle ), and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to get involved with a worthwhile charity. My experience with The Thir

Hey guys! For a lot of people, this holiday season (like all holiday seasons) is sure to be filled with traveling. I absolutely love to travel but it can get a little stressful.  That’s why I thought I’d share just a few of my favorite travel tips that I’ve picked up over the years. They’ve worked for me…maybe they’ll work for you too! Depending on where you’re going and how long you’re staying somewhere, you might run into the issue of packing. What should you bring? How much should you bring? I don’t know about you but I like to have a lot of different options. A well-known trick to storing as much as you can into your luggage is to ROLL your clothes.  I know it sounds funny but it really works.
