    Easy, Breezy, Beautiful Summer Girl

    Get it, because it’s like the Covergirl slogan? Except that I could never live up to the glory that is Ellen Degeneres, Sofia Vergara, or Taylor Swift…especially in makeup application.  Read more

    No Such Thing As June Gloom

    At least, not since this morning’s historic announcement that gay marriage is a constitutional right nationwide. I am so proud of our country, our leaders, and the example we’re setting for those who remain wary of change. Truly, love has won. And, I’m sorry about my recent vanishing act; the past few months have been a Read more

    Six Days In Paradise

    There are not enough nice words in the world to describe my trip to San Juan, Puerto Rico.

    I Don’t Know About You, But I’m Feeling…23?

    Woo-hoo! I made it! 23 years and 2 days on this planet, and still going strong. The last few weeks have mostly been a blur of snow and work, so I was grateful to get a relaxing weekend at home, following my actual birthday when I managed to get sick enough to end up bedridden. That said, Litchfield Read more
