quitting sugar
I was tired…physically tired, YES, but even more tired of the excuses. ‘If it is dark chocolate-it’s good for me’ ‘what is a life without ice cream…or cookies? ‘I’ll start Monday’ ‘Is it really that bad?’ ‘Can I be a good mom if I don’t make homemade cookies? ‘I don’t want to be obsessive or…

a haircut
I was sitting in church on Sunday. I have been lucky enough to attend the same congregation for over 14 years. As I looked around I realized at least 3/4 of the women I know here have kept the same hairstyle since I have known them. I am a hair changer. I think I change…

My daughter Ellie is preparing to leave for her humanitarian trip to Tonga. I am so excited for her. It stops my heart a bit to think of her on the other side of the world so far away. She will be without a phone…and gone for 17 days! I know her perspective of life…

I want to not like her. After reading her first book (that I really liked) I decided to follow her on social media. I couldn’t take it. I unfollowed her within the week. Why is it some of us are turned off by highly motivated-have it all together-living their dreams-women? (I feel super shallow admitting…

Valentine flowers
Kate, Trader Joes & I made a pretty good team for our Valentine flowers this year. They were pretty yesterday-and made for good practice tonight. I shot them in low (iso1600), tungsten (household…light bulb light) which is for sure my least favorite lighting situation. I also shot them with manual focus which is great to…

PUERTO RICO: day four
We woke to the sound of ocean waves (!!!!!) and roosters. In fact, we heard both all night long. The house we are renting has its own access to the beach. Danny and I went out there as soon as we were up. We didn’t quite make sunrise, but we were close. I love the…
