I had changed my focus in the past year (or two) away from blogging. I miss it, but with a baby/toddler, I had to prioritize my free time and this blog was making the least amount of income of all the “work” I was doing. I reflected on that a lot because this blog started …
I’ve been in California for an entire year. I have not done much of what I expected I’d do, and everything turned out differently that I anticipated… I’m calling that a complete success! I feel like I really went with the flow and didn’t try to control outcomes when what to do next wasn’t always …
My Mom hasn’t had my pb cups before (how did that happen?), and so when I unexpectedly ended up staying in NY for 4 extra days, I made some for her. SunButter Cups 4 Tbsp coconut oil 8 Tbsp SunButter (I used crunchy) 1 Tbsp Cocoa Powder (I used Navitas Cacao, but if you’re new …

Here are the four winners from my NuNaturals Stevia Giveaway! Congrats to you! I’ll email you with details. The stevia will be shipped directly from the company. News/Notes: I am staying at my Mom’s in NY this week, and I can’t complain too much about the cold weather—it is cold, but I …
I’ll be honest, I have not eaten many sloppy joes in my lifetime…maybe once or twice (and I can’t really remember it). So these really are my own version. Like always, it’s pretty simple, and I tried to keep the junky stuff out! I found that I ended up liking them best when I left …
I know, tuna is not so impressive. I’ve posted about fancy tuna before, and it really is something I probably overuse at times and underuse at others. I’ll be honest, I despise thinking about money (Leos hate to budget)…but I handed over a cashier’s check for almost $5000 yesterday for my new apartment lease…I’ll fill …

It’s been a great week here in Santa Monica (I’m on day 7). I have been walking so much, exploring and just being outside at most hours of the day. I was determined to spend a few days relaxing, and although I did think about my “plan” a bit, I did let things go and …
Transitions can be difficult, but truthfully, I’m excessively happy about my new adventure in California. The biggest challenge for me is to try to not control it for a certain outcome. I should pause and say that no, I haven’t decided to move here. I’m here to work on a project, and while I’m doing …
There have been many times in my life when I complained about being in “limbo.” Instances where things weren’t really happening, progress was not outwardly apparent, and sometimes I just felt a little stuck in what choices I could make. Today, though, I am kind of realizing that we’re all in limbo most of the …
Obviously, I’ve taken a break from writing here, and although I didn’t intend to, there was just no way for me to fit it in over the past couple weeks (not true, I could have crammed it in, but my head wasn’t in it). I did the Jersey Shore thing with my friends and Matthew, …
