Hello, sweet friends. I hope all is well with you. From your comments on previous posts, it seems like some of you share my penchant for buying books and magazines. It’s one of my favorite things, truly. Maybe it’s the promise of knowledge. Perhaps it’s just another form of collecting inspiration…
Things are turning around here after a couple really tough months. I am rediscovering my very simple, yet completely extraordinary, life. Things have been crazy, but I knew we’d make it to the other side. I think we’re nearly there. It’s the calm after the storm. Yesterday I flipped through magazines and watched romantic comedies while my Mister studied for his first exam…
Here’s to basking in 5 extra minutes of sleep… to checking out that yoga studio… to reconnecting with an old friend… to dancing in the rain, sunshine & moonlight… to making a risky decision… to trying a new recipe… to loving your body as it is today…
It’s hot here on North Carolina coast, and the beach is filled with folks celebrating the long weekend. I love feeling the sweet ocean breeze on my skin and hearing the rolling tides everywhere we go. I’m excited to embrace fall when it arrives, but in the meantime it’s extra nice to have such summery days in September…

I was delighted when I read about this gogonzola-pear pizza over at Lovely Little Things. During my next trip to the grocery store, I eagerly gathered the ingredients to make my very own blog-inspired dinner. As I excitedly unloaded my groceries and prepared to assemble my pizza, I realized I was missing a very important component—the dough!
Happy November! I can’t believe how quickly this fall season is passing by. The days are shorter and the weather is cooler. It is time to find comfort in hot tea and warm blankets. I decided last month to participate in a festive Autumn Swap with a group of other bloggers, and am so I glad I did…
Can you feel it? The holiday season is quickly approaching and the time for thoughtful homemade presents is here. With the current economy, many people are looking to save a few pennies with gifts from the heart. A friendship journal is great for anyone who lives far away.
