Food brings people together. Well, I like to have food when people get together. I like to get together and eat food. Food is good for get-togethers. There is a whole set of opinions on breaking bread and socializing and at the end of the day, I find myself talking about food more often than […]

Never Saw That Coming
With change comes new beginnings. This is hardly a newsflash to the average person, it just happens to be what has been on my mind. I spent most of January thinking about change and February made me think of new beginnings. Change always makes me feel weird and I have been that way for as […]

Make It YOUR Birthday
The little things in life go a long way. It really is true. I usually try to take the day off on my birthday and this year I had to work. Client meetings from 8:30am-4:30pm. I was grumbling to myself about it all day yesterday as I really prefer to do what I want to […]

Bungalow Blogspot
My friend is keeping a blog to track a big home renovation project. Admittedly I pressured her into it because it just seemed like a great way to keep her friends and family up to date! We have been friends since we met freshman year in college and I think as the years have passed […]

Clap Along
Now and then I come across a song that I have to listen to about 4,503 times (or more) on repeat. I have always been this way which may be why I can sing along to nearly all songs on my iPod/iPhone. This week I discovered Happy by Pharrell Williams and have spent all weekend […]

Change Your Footwear
Change is afoot. 2014 feels like it is about change. I am working on changing things around me that is for sure. Simple things like finally painting my bedroom. I have been procrastinating for 2 years and I finally picked a color and have my Dad as my co-painter to get the work done. My […]

Wake Up And Change
Back to reality. Ok well maybe not reality, maybe just a full 5 day work week. I am trying to prevent my brain from remembering the regular chaos of my usual work day and instead focus on how nice the last few weeks have been. My schedule has been so flexible and I have gotten […]

New Year, New Ways
Changing it up, moving things around and doing things your way. I guess everyone sees January 1st as a chance to start fresh. I like the idea of standing on the starting line now and looking back in December to see how far I have come or what goals I have attained or what goals […]

Ray of Happiness
“It is not happy people who are thankful, it is thankful people who are happy.” I read this on Paul Coelho’s twitter feed on Thanksgiving Day. It just resonated with me and stuck with me for a few days as it gave me food for thought. How can anyone be happy without feeling thankful, without […]
