I saved up my money and went on a trip, to one of my favorite places in the world, no less - the Caribbean. Puerto Rico to be specific. My cousin Scott had a destination wedding, and I was happy to make the trip out there. I joined my parents, which was pretty much the … Continue reading Puerto Rico: The Beach
A Purple Crocus
Inspired by laying in a meadow of purple flowers... Becoming one with the flowers... An ant half the size of me crawls up my back, but just as quickly scurries on away from my body; A fuzzy bumblebee tickles my cheeks, searching for pollen; I slurp up the sun's rays, devouring them like a big … Continue reading A Purple Crocus
Best Dog Breed: Shiba Inu
If you've been friends with me for awhile, you know how highly I think of Shiba Inus. I had two, and since the last one passed away my parents have gotten a new Shiba puppy.

A Delicious Gluten-Free Lasagna
This is hands down the best meal I've made in the past, oh, two years. I wasn't even making it for anything special. I just went to the grocery store, knew I needed something for dinner, and remembered I had a box of Jovial gluten-free lasagna noodles in my pantry. I had been craving lasagna … Continue reading A Delicious Gluten-Free Lasagna
1% for the Planet
Continuing the Love the Earth series, I wanted to highlight an organization that connected businesses and consumers with nonprofits to drive positive change towards the environment. 1% for the Planet is made up of 1200 companies in 48 countries. Each of these companies pledge to give one percent of their sales to more than 3300 … Continue reading 1% for the Planet
Ideas to “Reuse”
"Gotta reduce, reuse, recycle..." Jack Johnson sings, and it's stuck in my head. Here are some tips for more ideas on how to make "reusing" a part of your daily life.
