Tell Me I Am Pretty…
My husband is fantastic in a lot of ways, but in our five years of marriage I have had to learn that he shows his love differently from the way I do. For instance, I love receiving compliments; it’s what makes me feel loved. When my husband buys me gifts, or does thoughtful things... »

For the Love of Doughnuts
I stare longingly at the sweet, shiny, glazed doughnut as it beckons me to eat it.

Every spring, fitness magazine headlines scream “6 weeks to a bikini body!” and I think maybe this year I will actually try out these latest exercise and eating plans. Fast forward to June. Summer is here again and I haven’t even cracked the cover. Facing months in a swimsuit is an annual anxiety for... »
Bumble and Bumble “Brilliantine”
I’m not known for my creative hair styling. I count it a great day if I remember to actually brush my hair after I shower. Regardless, you’ll always see me sporting my ol’ faithful, the ponytail. Part of the problem is that my hair can’t make up its mind if it’s curly or straight. It... »
