October 2019 Favorites
How was everyone’s Halloween? Aside from the kids at school dressing up, it didn’t really feel like Halloween to me! So the fact that it’s now November is just crazy to me. I don’t have that many October favorites, but the ones I do have I seriously love. First up, empanadas from Division Street Cafe. Earlier in the month I was really in the mood for some empanadas and I have gotten take out empanadas from Division Street Cafe multiple times this month! They heat up great for lunch at work too! One photo is from when I was heating up a bunch at home and one photo is from when I…

How to Feel At Your Best, Every Day
Is there anything better than striding around, taking care of business, knowing that we’re shining inside and out? Not in our book. Rather than simply feeling that the world is a beautiful and positive place, there’s a feeling that we’re actively contributing towards making so. Alas, how often do we actually feel that way? Not all that often. It’s a ‘once every so often’ kind of thing. But what if we could make it more likely? Well, perhaps we can. Below, we take a look at a few things that’ll push you towards feeling at your best, every single day. Pexels – CC0 Licence Well-Rested Try as you might,…

Pumpkins at Terhune
Can you believe Halloween is next week? I had wanted to go pumpkin picking this year since it has been a very long time since I’ve gone, but time flew by and it didn’t happen. But, when I went apple picking last month at Terhune Orchards there were lots of pumpkins for sale. I took this photo because I knew it would be a great one to use for the holiday. Perfect pumpkin/fall photo! Have a great Friday – the last Friday in October!

4 Ways To Handle Life’s Bitter Lemons
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. While the proverbial phrase is the epitome of a positive attitude, it doesn’t give you the best approach to handle unpleasant and problematic situations. You can’t just throw a spoonful of sugar at everything and hope that it’ll take the bitterness away. Making lemonade is the kind of thing that only works with real, actual lemons. When it comes to metaphorical ones, finding the metaphorical lemonade can be tricky. So how can you turn a bad situation into something better? The truth is that, more often than not, there’s no way you can make a lemonade how of it. So you need to…

September 2019 Favorites
I don’t know why but I keep thinking that October is a week away and then I’m thrown off every time I realize it’s a lot sooner than that. Like as in tomorrow. September has been really busy, but I’ve still got some favorites to share with you. First up is my new Coach wallet. My wallet before this one was a Vera Bradley one in a pink floral print and it lasted me a few years but it was getting real rough looking so I was due for a new wallet. I got this one for my birthday and I don’t see this exact one on the website anymore, but…

Apple Picking 2019
It’s been 2 or 3 years since I’ve gone apple picking and I was itching to go and do something fall-ish despite the temperature still being hot. A few of my friends were free last weekend to go so we went to Terhune Orchards in Princeton which I had never been to. I’d heard good things about Terhune over the years so we decided to check it out. We went mid-morning and it was already really hot out so I’ll preface this by saying we did not stay long since we were all sweating to death in the hot sun. Terhune has 2 addresses and we accidentally went to the…

ThredUp Clean Out Kit
I always see people on Instagram talking about some great finds they’ve gotten from ThredUp, but I never see people talking about their Clean Out Kits and that’s really what I’m most interested in. Personally, I’d rather not buy consignment, but that’s just my personal preference. However, I have no problem sending items to be sold on consignment. As you may know I’ve had a Poshmark account for a few years now and I still have a ton of items listed on there, but maintaining it takes a lot of work. Not to mention it takes time to take photos of the items, list them, promote them etc. And then if/when…

August 2019 Favorites
August was so crazy and busy that it felt like a really long month, but at the same time I can’t believe it’s actually September. In August I went to San Francisco for a week, had to wear my glasses for 2 weeks, had a birthday, went to see Backstreet Boys , had my first session of the Vbeam laser on my face, went back to work, got in to LIKEtoKnow.it and moved out of my townhouse. That is a lot of things! All in one month! Since I am exhausted from all the packing this weekend, let’s get right to my favorites in August. I’ll try to make it quick!…

Would You Uproot Your Life?
You’ve got to admit, you’ve probably thought about this a few times over the years. You will definitely have thought about how much you’d like to throw everything away, and spontaneously jetting off around the world and becoming one of those people that travels for a living. But only a set few people go down the route of doing that, and you’ve probably got one too many commitments to do that now. So it can be easy to think that you’re stuck with the life you’re living, and feeling as though you’re stuck in a bit of a rut. But a rut is only as deep and as long as…
