8 Foods You Should Eat Daily for Optimum Health - Beauty Snob - Beauty Secrets and Tips Our tech nerdie, aka Kelly’s husband, is useful beyond words. In addition to keeping us online and in business by keeping up with all of our technical work, he also scans the web for articles that would be of interest to us.
