We’re probably past the threshold for “My Goals in 2014…” posts, but that’s just too bad for you, dear readers. Although I didn’t share any specific resolutions at the beginning of the month, I thought it might be healthy and fun to set a few goals for Bikram. Let me just say that I realize…
Thinking Out Loud #4
Hi there, friends! It’s Thursday—which is one day closer to Friday!—so I imagine you’re counting down the hours to the weekend like I am (unless, of course, you have a job that requires you to work on the weekends). It’s also time for Thinking Out Loud—so let’s get right down to it. 1. Normally my…
What I Ate Wednesday: Keeping Track
Hello, hello! I hope this Wednesday finds you well—and that you’re not freezing your face off as a result of the great “polar vortex of 2014.” Although it was below freezing this morning (and my car was covered in pretty star-shaped ice crystals), the rest of the week is going to be quite lovely. I’ve…
Body Image: Revisited
I’ve talked about body image somewhat recently, but after this past weekend, I realize I have a long way to go when it comes to truly accepting and loving my own body. Apart from maybe Jennifer Lawrence (who, according to this opinion, may be inadvertently “body-shaming” through her unapologetic attitude regarding food, Hollywood, and her own…
Kings Day!
Even though I’m still a little sad that Christmas is over, I’m especially excited for today—Twelfth Night, Epiphany, Kings Day, whatever you want to call it—because it marks the beginning of one of my other favorite times of the year: CARNIVAL SEASON. One of the best things about living on the Gulf Coast—besides its natural…
Weekly Links #1
I’ve shared a few foodie links in past WIAW and other posts, but as an effort to provide different content and freshen things up (one of my unwritten goals of the year), I’m going to start a new series: Weekly Links. I love perusing link collections from other bloggers, as they’ve given me some food…
Thinking Out Loud #3
I hope everybody had a lovely first day of the year. I’ll just get right to today’s post, hosted by the lovely Amanda. 1. I think every work week should include a random Wednesday off. While I’d much rather have had a longer vacation than I did (i.e., this entire week off), it’s nice to…
2013: Reflections
2013—like every year—had its fair share of ups and downs. Despite being challenging for me while I navigated my “third-life crisis” and last full year as a twenty-something, 2013 was full of some pretty amazing experiences, too. I’d originally written (and planned to publish) a more contemplative post for today—one full of self-reflection and goals…
Christmas 2013
Just like that, another Christmas has come and gone. I’ve been a little MIA lately, and although I missed writing, cooking, and the wonderful blogging community, I’d be lying if I told you it hasn’t been fantastic to disconnect for a while. Sure, the disconnecting wasn’t planned, per se, but now that our computer has…
Thinking Out Loud #2
1. You’ll have to excuse me for the lack of blog posts this week. On Sunday, our MacBook decided to quit working, so I’ve ultimately been computer-less these last few days. 2…which also means that I have another photo-less post for you. It’s easy to publish text from my phone’s WordPress app, but I can’t…
