The Difference a Day Makes

Chances are if you’re reading this you noticed some of your favorite sites were not available yesterday or had some form of blackout. These sites were participating in an internet protest to draw attention  to the proposed bills in congress SOPA and PIPA. I don’t like to get political on this blog but I’d like to say I have a deep deep love of the internet and all the creativity, opportunity, sharing and general wonderfulness that goes on and can… View Post

On Thanksgiving every year I am profoundly grateful for my amazing family and friends, and the many many MANY wonderful things I have in my life, but if I’m super honest I have yet to be thankful for myself. So when Michelle thought of the Thanksgiving theme of expressing gratitude for ourselves it was a “a ha” moment for me. This Thanksgiving theme called for 5 things about ME that I am grateful for and because we tend to be… View Post

Remembering 9/11

I honestly can not believe it’s been 10 years. It’s an impossible feat to try to remember what 9/11 and the days after felt like and I don’t want to try to relive it.

The above image is of the 9/11 Memorial Fountain designed by Michael Aradand landscape architect Peter Walker titled Remembering Absence, it… View Post

Sunny Days…

Hi friends. Most of you know that I live in NYC and with that fact I thought it would be hugely remiss to not mention hurricane Irene. Especially since watching the news and fleeing my apartment on the East River were the activities of my weekend. I can not tell you how hugely relieved I am that Irene dwindled down to a tropical storm that blew past NY with a lot of wind and a lot of rain but not… View Post

For this month’s Full Time Fabulous Event, Kristy Eléna asked us to draw inspiration from the beach. I looooove the beach. The feel of sand under my feet the smell of salt water, the sound of the waves and the relaxed, slow paced attitude in the air makes me feel like I’m in another life. So I decided to share with you my favorite beach trip EVER for my beach inspiration task, which happened on my trip to Negril, Jamaica… View Post
