Welcome to You're A Peach!  So what are we all about? Cassie and I are two gals who love the Catholic faith. We wanted to create a monthly mog( a cross between a magazine and a blog) to celebrate each month of the year in a truly catholic way. We both love the church and the beauty of the catholic faith but know it can often times be easy to lose the joy for the faith in the hectiness of daily life. Here at You're a Peach we have everything from fashion to hot topics to celebrating each month of the year in style, the catholic way. There is so much imagery and the thematic beauty in the Catholic church that we literally can't stop from sharing it. This pre- launch is for the moth of February. Who know there was so much to celebrate and discuss for the month of February?  So grab your favorite beverage of choice and get comfy as you take a glimpse into the crazy awesome month of February- catholic style. 

Dear Parents and Community Members,

Here is a picture of Sara and Jenny in costumes that I made for them in 1994. Looking at this picture made me stop to think how important it is to slow down and appreciate each moment

A young lady was waiting for her flight in the boarding room of a big airport. As she would need to wait many hours, she decided to buy a book to spend her time and also bought a packet of cookies, then sat down in an armchair, in the VIP room of the airport, to rest and read in peace. Beside the armchair where the packet of cookies lay, a man sat down in the next seat, opened his magazine and started reading. When she took out the first cookie, the man took one also.

Ways to Increase Financial Efficacy of Canada

There are a lot of opinions considering the development of the international market but as we live in Canada, we need to consider the situation within the limits of the country. It must to be noticed that the Canadian economy is highly dependent on the tendencies in other countries. One of the ways to overcome any financial and economic crisis is to reduce the cost of the national currency so that to be able to sell the products more effectively. Of course, there are a lot of financial experts consider that this way of increasing the efficacy of the national economy is not rather reliable as if other countries start decreasing the prices for products as well, the profits will be rather low. As a result, the decline in the manufacturing process is inevitable. If the economy struggles to overcome any difficulties, then the problems with the employment will be present in the country as well.

Ways to Reduce Fees for Your Loans

If you consider the possibility to live on loans, you need to examine the sphere of business and to take the decision that can help you overcome financial difficulties. All you need to do is to find out the list of reliable lenders that do not overcharge and you will not need to pay high money for using the financial services. Once you have decided on the lender you would like to use, it is better to learn the fee beforehand. Finally, you will learn the amount of money you will need to repay. Also, you will have a chance to learn the conditions and terms of using the financial services and you will also need to learn what additional payments could be applied if you delay the repayment of the fees on time. Once you know all the details, you can apply.

 

THIS MAKES COMPLETE SENSE? YOU DECIDE.

Oklahoma City Thunder fans can finally take a deep breath, because it sounds like the reinforcements will be coming a little bit sooner than expected. Reports from The Oklahoman indicate that both Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant participated in the Thunder's practice on Monday and there's a chance they could play on Friday night against the Knicks if their evaluations go smoothly. 

Well when it comes to winning, it means just about everything! The Thunder are off to a horrid 3-12 start and have the second lowest win percentage in the league behind only the Sixers. OKC has patched together a lineup which features players such as Sebastian Telfair, Lance Thomas, Andre Roberson and Ish Smith and has seen heavy minutes from Kendrick Perkins. The lone playmaker on this Thunder team has been Reggie Jackson, who was two rebounds away from a triple double in the Thunder's three point loss to the Warriors on Sunday. Jackson can only do so much, and the guy who was really supposed to step up was Serge Ibaka and we really haven't seen that happen. In a previous HOOPSAHOLIC blog post I criticized the play of Ibaka: 

I don't need to remind everyone that both Durant and Westbrook are two of the top five players in the NBA, so their nearing return will be monumental to this team and the city. Right now the Thunder are fighting valiantly, but struggle to create their own shot or scoring opportunities. The Thunder rank last in the league for points per game, averaging only 89.6 a night. KD and Westbrook can both get shots up at will and hit them at a high clip, so that scoring average will increase substantially when the duo returns. Not only will they be getting their shots up, but both stars will help set up other guys for easy scoring opportuinites as well. Players such as Steven Adams and Roberson will find it easier to score when their defender is busy double-teaming either of the Thunder's all-stars. KD and Westbrook are also world class passers that can fit the ball in tight spots. Many times last season and this preseason we saw Durant or Westbrook drive to the hole and dump it off to Adams for an easy flush, or one of the stars connected with Roberson who was slashing for an easy layup. The top video to the right shows Westbrook dishing a stellar pass to Perry Jones after Westbrook sucked in the defense on his drive to the basket. The second video shows Durant getting the defensive attention then passing it to Serge for an easy score. Those are the type of easy points the Thunder will be able to get with their studs back in the lineup. Even Jackson will find himself with easier opportunities to score now that the opposing team's best defender won't be guarding him. 

Despite the lack of shooting success for this depleted Thunder team, the defense has been a subtle bright spot. OKC is currently ranked fifth in the NBA, only giving up 94.9 points per contest. The stifling defense of this club has been the primary reason they've been to compete with teams late into the fourth quarter. The Thunder were able to hold Golden State to 15 points less than the 106 points per game average the normally score on a nightly basis. The increased effort has been there from this ball club even though that effort isn't translating into W's. That alone will bode well for the Thunder as the season trucks along down the final stretches. Role players on this OKC team have garnered valuable experience on both ends of the floor, which should ultimately result in a better overall team once everyone's back and healthy. Players have also been able to see what being the bottom feeder is like, which should provide extra motivation to win. 

I really hope I'm not speaking too soon when saying this, but the health of this OKC team couldn't be coming at a better time. Durant and Westbrook returning ahead of schedule will surely serve as an umbrella to the rainstorm that the 2014-15 season has brought OKC so far. Say that they each waited until late December to return like many thought the stars would. That would be 12 more games that Durant and Westbrook would miss and eventually have to dig themselves out of down the stretch. 

After a series of bad breaks to start the season, it looks like the Thunder are finally getting some good news. Now, all of OKC needs to pray that the cities heroes will reign supreme and stay healthy for another fantastic playoff run.   -BC
