I have been neglectful AF towards this blog - which is audacious considering I pay to have it! I don't even have a good excuse - I've been on summer break for the last two weeks doing nothing but going to yoga and annoying my husband. I thought it'd be fun to do a quick … Continue reading Life Lately
Just don't do it in someone's ear. Don't be that weirdo. It's been a long month. Things have happened that have made life difficult for me - emotionally, physically, and mentally. I took a break from writing, and quite frankly, a lot of other things as well (like kale and yoga). One thing that has … Continue reading Breathe, Loudly
This post is delayed but this week has been busy, so it is what it is. Plus, I'm sure there is not a single soul on this earth who has been waiting at the edge of their seat, so it's all good! We started our trip off with several days in Rome. It was nice, … Continue reading Things We Did and Ate in Rome (in Pictures)
Spring break this year was spent in Italy. We visited Rome and Naples, the glorious cities of treasures as all the travel blogs say, but in all honesty, the most spectacular place we visited was a ten minute cab ride from the airport. Continue reading to see (pun intended - there will be lots of … Continue reading Where You Should Eat in Fiumicino, Italy
It's bizarre how much of our identity is tied to our profession. Maybe it isn't so strange - we spend so much of our time at work, getting ready for work and unwinding from work. Work is where people tend to spend most of their days. It makes sense that our self worth is so … Continue reading I’m Not “Just” a Teacher
I had a lovely weekend, and I really needed it. I've felt so tired lately. I think it has to do with the monotony of the day to day life. We're 11 days away from Spring Break, and I am yearning for it and our trip. I'm so damn grateful that I have the opportunity … Continue reading A Lovely Weekend
Woah, woah, woah - this means I've been doing Five Thangs Friday for 2 months! Talk about muddahfracking consistency! Spring break is two weeks away, and I am searching for all the joyous things to get me through this wait! Here are the joyous things from this week, you beautiful people! #1. Grapefruit The simplest … Continue reading Five Thangs Friday #8
I have been on the lookout for a coffee maker without any plastic or aluminum parts. I've read too many articles on Wellness Mama about the harm that can be done with leaching, and decided I was done with it. If I get cancer one day, it won't be because of my coffee brewing techniques. … Continue reading GOAT Coffee Maker: Review
I just had a flashback to my high school aerobics gym class. Every Friday we would do yoga and meditations (I know, I know - bougie AF). Our teacher would begin each meditation session by having us close our eyes, and saying that we are "exactly where we need to be." This has resonated with … Continue reading I’m Where I Need To Be
My husband and I are very systematic people. We thrive on routine and schedules. When we're on vacation, there's an Excel sheet that goes along with our days. Letting go is difficult for us. A few months ago, we took a trip to Texas, which included a few days in Austin. While there, we were … Continue reading On Blank Canvas
