What do you even call this last decade? We had the early aughts (2000-2009), and we’re heading into the ’20s.. which feels weird to say.. but what do you call 2010-2019? This was an extremely transformative ten years. In June of 2010, my six year relationship with Matt finally crashed and burned. For real this… Continue reading #decadeinreview
One of my favorite things to do is to take photos of strangers living their life. Is it creepy? A bit. Do I care? Not even a little. Here’s the English Volume.
Here’s my face all over England. Please Enjoy.
Friday April 19, 2019 / The Flight I don’t fly often. Small spaces and crowds upset me. I had no idea what I was doing when I arrived at the Atlanta airport. Fortunately, I was meeting up with the most travel savvy gal there is- Barbie Ortiz. I probably circled the airport TGIFridays three times… Continue reading #England

I snapped at a dear friend yesterday. This is how I know God has done a work in my life- Five years ago, I would have been smug and satisfied with my assault. Today I feel like a garbage truck. The lack of self control. The self importance behind making myself feel right and her… Continue reading #sasspants
It’s not that I can’t cook, I just don’t prefer it. I have always been more of a spectator in the kitchen. A don’t-let-that-boil-over attendant. A this-needs-a-little-more-salt critic. An occasional pot stirrer. Not the chef. The concept of these home delivery meals appeals to me because of the convenience, the supposed simplicity, and most importantly… Continue reading #hellofresh
