It’s the weekend. Time to go shopping. But the weather is too perfect to be inside. What’s a girl to do? Take the party outside! It’s unusually warm this Minnesota Fall day, and I unusually have the day off (no pressing business and no harvest farm work yet). Ahhhhh. I took the party to the streetsContinue reading
If you only go to Germany once (upon a time), Schloss Neuschwanstein is a must-see. Get lost in the beauty of the real-life inspiration behind Walt Disney’s Sleeping Beauty castle. Are you humming the “When you wish upon a star” tune yet? You will be once you see this place in real life! Deutsch forContinue reading
Since childhood, and to this day, you’ll be hard pressed to find me without an animal nearby. Or a head covering of some sort for that matter – Hoods, hats,… heck, even BAGS will do for hiding from the world when necessary! (No, not the plastic kind of bags… Canvas, silly!) Dogs are a kid’sContinue reading

A department store at the Mall of America had the same idea (though my frame looked a tad more worse for wear). Last year duringContinue reading
Have you ever thought about what it means to see someone, truly? Have you ever wished to be understood – completely? I have. We live in a society of “Next”. A swipe generation that can instantly ‘like’ and move on without consequence. We have so many options vying for our attention. It’s a world ofContinue reading
The power of the ocean waves rhythmically hitting the shore are a majestic display of karma. Waves roll out to sea, but always return to the shore. On a trip to Tybee Island last weekend, I discovered hidden treasure in the sand. Rewind to earlier in the day. My fiance Matt and I were exploring DuPontContinue reading
I like to travel: for work and for pleasure. I like living in different places. That’s the “gypsy” in me, but sometimes it can be unsettling. When nothing seems familiar, when your anchor escapes you, when you’re in transition – how do you find your rhythm? What makes you feel “at home” even if youContinue reading
