I Took a Ceramics Class

One of my goals this year was to take a ceramics class. I took ceramics as an elective in high school, and to fulfill a 3D art requirement in college, and enjoyed both, so I’ve often thought about finding a way to get back into it. And since goal setting is the easiest way to… Continue reading

July & August Favorites

I say this every time but…I found some really good stuff lately!! Let’s get right into it. Books Talking at Night by Claire Daverley is a love story, but not an easy one. It’s hard to describe without giving away major plot points, but if you’re in a melancholy mood, this is a great pick.… Continue reading

Sights & Sounds at the Farmer’s Market

About once a month I volunteer with Food Forward at a local farmer’s market, collecting food from vendors that they otherwise would’ve had to throw away, and donating it to food relief organizations. It’s a light, breezy way to spend an afternoon—with the occasional burst of cardio and strength training as you transport heavy boxes… Continue reading

May & June Favorites

Nothing quite captures the mood of the newly arrived summer heat than the text I got from my sister the other day politely asking me to “prepare a funeral for the death of my sanity.” The triple digits really hit hard. So I hope you’re reading this somewhere with air conditioning and an ice cold… Continue reading

My Best Day in June

I fell into a routine of doing these every other month, but then, some months just have a day you want to write about. Days you want to squeeze like a wet towel so you can wring out all the tiny details and get them down on paper so you can remember them for much… Continue reading

My Current Weekly Workout Routine

Piggy backing off of last week’s post about exercise (and doing it even if you’re not wearing a fitness tracker) I thought I’d revisit/update this blog from last April about my weekly workout routine. I was happy to reread it and find I’m still feeling the same way about exercise—that it should be fun and… Continue reading

A Pretty Long List, When You Think About It

I sat down to write a blog post about thankfulness. About noticing. I wanted to go through all of the tiny things in my day and in my body. The parts of my life I might not pay attention to or notice, especially when a different problem is on my mind, but when I focus… Continue reading

My Spring Bucket List

Right, so, it has been spring for almost a month now, but here I am with a Spring Bucket List. Also, it’s Tuesday and I usually post on Monday. But oh well. I just like this list and wanted to share, because somehow spring feels extra springy this year and I just got some tulips… Continue reading

January & February Favorites

This year certainly started with a bang. Every where you looked, there was surely chaos to be found. So when I could, I tried to look elsewhere. I tried to turn off social media and dig in to books, movies, and TV shows. I tried to read more blogs and try more recipes, to watch… Continue reading

It’s a Good Day to be a Duck

This past weekend we grieved the loss but also celebrated the life of my great uncle Ted. Looking around the room at his extended family, as well as the slideshow of pictures that showcased his persistent joy for life, I remembered fondly all of the time I got to spend with him. And having worked… Continue reading
