My house smells so good. I can honestly say that I love cooking. I especially love days when I can take my time, try new recipes, all while listening to jazz music and having candles throughout the kitchen. For many, it may seem like a chore, but for me, it is an enjoyable thing to…

I have been out of town for the last few days, so I am trying to catch my second wind to celebrate with some friends this evening. For those of you in other parts of the world who already rang in the new year, I hope you had a fabulous New Year’s eve celebration. For those…

After our new Alexa gave me the news rundown this morning, this was her first song choice for me while I had my morning coffee. I am hopelessly in love with this band. She is definitely killing me softly with this song. The second song that came on was Cosmic Love by Florence and the…

Remember: The morning’s sunrise does not define itself by last night’s sunset. -Steve Maraboli Word of the day – nubivagant (adjective) 1. (rare) Wandering…

‘Tis my favorite season! I usually don’t watch TV in the evenings or spend that much time in my living room during the workweek. But during the Christmas season, I literally get so excited to make my evening cup of tea and enjoy the Christmas tree and all the beautiful decorations after my #LittleLove has…

There is this indeed this beautiful thing called “imperfect progress.”  I woke up this morning, cleaned my house (well…let’s not get crazy, just part of my house) as I prepare for my 6th Annual Holiday Party. While cleaning, I saw myself in the mirror. Gasp! I literally busted out laughing. Whew, what a sight! While my…

It’s no secret that I love adventures. I enjoy exploring new places, meeting new people, and challenging myself to go outside my comfort zone.  I recently traveled for work to Arizona. I stayed an extra day to go hiking on my own. I welcomed the 75 degree weather on a December day, especially since I knew…
