I am so incredibly excited about this week’s podcast because I am interviewing my good friend Jenna MacDonald from There’s A Shoe For That. Jenna is joining me today to share her safety tips for female travelers. Jenna is a seasoned traveler who often travels alone for work but is also experienced at traveling alone with […]
Easter Bird’s Nest Cookies
If there is one thing my family has come to expect over the years, it’s that I’ll make my Bird’s Nest Cookies every Easter. I’ve been making them for probably 20 or more years now, and I don’t think I’ve ever missed a year making them for Easter. They are totally addictive, I’m not sure […]

Konmari Your Mind
The new show “Tidying Up” by Marie Kondo featuring her Konmari method has swept the nation since it hit Netflix back on January 1st. I’ve watched it, my friends have watched it, and even though her book caused ripples a few years ago when it first came out, it seems the show has created a whole […]
Making New Year’s Goals That You Can Actually Achieve
Would it really be January if bloggers didn’t take to their blogs to announce to the world their goals or their “word” for the year ahead? I think not! Instead of big sweeping goals that many (including myself) have declared in the past, I am sharing with you a handful of goals that are small, achievable […]
Car Confessions: Stop Getting “Organized”!
If you haven’t heard anyone mention that they need to get “organized” before they can start their new year’s goals or resolutions, start listening!
