Walk Down Memory Lane

My main squeeze and I had a few quiet moments to ourselves this weekend so we decided to take a trip down memory lane. We went back to where it all began. The beginning of us near Tower Grove Park in the Southwest Garden District. One thing I will always love about this area are the tree-lined streets. Yes, we had our fair share of pollen-covered windshields and friendly birds making themselves comfortable on the roofs of our cars, but...

All or Nothing // All or Nothing?

Crossroads. Damnit. I started viewing the controversial “American Blogger” documentary. Quick note: I “get” how the documentary may be seen as controversial – it’s just a very, tiny snapshot of the entire blogging-sphere. But it’s not without thought, love, beauty.

Maybe you’re like my hubs and enter reminders into your Blackberry or iPad. Regardless, you know all the options. The “should I or shouldn’t I”‘s were debated. They wrestled around in your mind and heart. You know the answer. You know what should be...

Reflections on My Twenty-Something Self

I’m approaching what some may call a “big” birthday this year. Leaving my twenties behind and finally joining my husband where he’s been sitting pretty for quite a few years now 😉 Over the past few months, I’ve started reflecting on the past ten years of my life, reading several new bloggers that are still enjoying their mid-twenties and meeting with women that are embarking on this new thirty-something journey. It’s a bit of a challenge to try and encapsulate...
