    What ‘Wild’ Can Teach You About Straying During Your Hike

    March 1, 2019 /

    If you’re planning a hike any time soon, there’s a chance that Cheryl Strayed’s memoir ‘Wild’ has played some part. Strayed’s memoir of her 1,100-mile hike has become something of a cult icon. And, women across the world now plan copycat hikes. Some go straight to Strayed’s very own Pacific Crest Trail. Others head to similar iconic destinations like the Lost Coast Trail in California. Either way, they go with the idea of self-transformation and ‘Wild’ in mind. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with this copycat approach. Whether you read the source material or watched the film, you’ll know that the memoir has an ultimately positive message. It’s proof that…

    Rediscover The Pleasure Of Nature

    January 30, 2019 /

    With every generation, it seems that western civilization is moving away from nature. When your grandparents probably still knew the flowers in their garden by name, most adults today wouldn’t recognize a potted geranium. Admittedly, you don’t need to know the name of each pant to appreciate its beauty. But in our fast-paced society, nobody has time anymore to enjoy the marvels of Mother Nature. I have house plants, you say, I love nature. And while this might be true, you need from time to time to rediscover your connection with nature. You have to physically dedicate time to engage and interact with the life around you, in its mineral…

    Photo Challenge: Silence

    January 26, 2018 /

    Friday I thought you’d never come! I’ve had a cough all week and I desperately need some downtime this weekend. Unfortunately, I have to go in to work tomorrow for an open house event, but at least I can sleep in a bit. Last week’s photo challenge from The Daily Post was “Silence” and I decided to go with this photo I took during (well technically after) a snowstorm back in 2016. I love the end of a snowstorm when everything is silent, still, and peaceful outside. Do you know what I’m talking about? You open your door and everything is completely still outside. The snow plows haven’t started yet.…

    I can’t believe that Thanksgiving is next week! It feels like November just started. I’m not a fan of time going by so quickly, but I am excited for the holiday! Last week’s photo challenge from The Daily Post was “Temporary“. Most of the beautiful autumn leaves have fallen from the trees now where I live but there a few stragglers still on the trees. Of course, the ones left are not looking too pretty after withstanding downpours and gusty winds. But, a few weeks ago the leaves were looking gorgeous with their fiery, autumnal colors. When I was out for a walk in my neighborhood I saw this tree absolutely…

    Happy Friday! This week has felt so weird. With the long weekend I kept losing track of the days and then yesterday felt like a Friday. Plus it’s the end of the school year with a little more than 2 weeks left so things are just crazy! Last week’s photo challenge from The Daily Post was “Evanescent“, which means a fleeting moment in time or something soon passing out of sight. For my photo I used a photo I took last week when I was out in my yard cutting some peonies. I look forward to these flowers blooming every year but they all bloom so fast – faster than…

    Happy Friday! This week has been weird. I feel like I didn’t know what day of the week it was all week. Anyone else feel out of sorts this week? Last week’s photo challenge from The Daily Post was “Danger!” and the example was pretty funny. I thought about what photos I had that might be good for the challenge and I finally settled on one. Now, two things to preface this photo. 1) This was actually a video and I screenshot it for the purposes of this photo challenge. 2) It was taken by my brother and not me although I was sitting right next to him when he took…

I was sent an early copy of Once in a Lifetime by I was sent an early copy of Once in a Lifetime by @suzannemattaboni80s months ago and I did a highlight post on it back then, but I finally read it this week and loved it! 📖The novel takes places in New Hope, PA (just across the river from NJ) in 1984. Jessica, a mixed media art student, is spending the summer there with her 3 best friends and roommates, waitressing, and trying to save money to study abroad ✈️ . This coming of age novel was a fun and realistic read about punk rock loving girls with big dreams as they navigate life and love in their early 20s 🎶💗. I was hooked on the story the whole time and really enjoyed it! My full review is on the blog ✨📚

I loved You Deserve Each Other 💖. It’s going I loved You Deserve Each Other 💖. It’s going to be one of those books that sticks with me for a while 📖. Naomi and Nicholas are engaged, but can barely stand each other these days. Naomi doesn’t think she can go through with the marriage, but she’s broke and thanks to a meddling future mother-in-law whoever breaks off the engagement has to foot the non-refundable bill 💍. Naomi comes to realize that all the annoying things Nicholas has been doing lately are to purposely get under her skin. Now it’s game on and the two pull pranks on each other in an attempt to drive the other to be the one to end things. But all this extra time together trying to bring each other down might just bring them closer together 💕. 

This book was so funny that I actually laughed out loud while reading 😂. It also had really touching moments and I was rooting for Naomi and Nicholas the whole time. I loved them and overall it was just such a good story! My full review is on the blog ✨📚
