You are You and I am Me
I came across this article piece from Charlie Kaufman, a BAFTA Award winning screenwriter for Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind and Being John Malkovich. The comments were posted by Meg Worden, from the blog Feed Me Darling. Considering all that our country has experienced the last few weeks, and all that is to come…

You Smell…Divine
Some people just have a certain smell – a good smell – it’s their smell. I recognize certain people by their smell. It’s simply part of who they are. You can’t smell your own smell, by the way. I wonder what mine is… I grew with another family who had an amazing smell. It…

Christmas Memories
This will be my very first Christmas away from my family. We moved to the Pacific Northwest in March and have very much enjoyed the change, despite our current economic circumstances. Our surroundings are beautiful, the city culture is a dream, and our friendships and community of support has been more than we could have…

Crazy for Mountain Rose
I am absolutely crazy for apples. I adore them. I cannot get through a day without at least one apple, honestly. My apple obsession began years ago – and I’m not entirely sure as to the reason. In fact, I actually prefer the taste of seasonal fruit to apples in summer. There is nothing more…

Earlier in the week, we SECRETLY “elfed” a few of our neighbors, in an effort to spread a little extra Christmas cheer. We surprised each recipient…

Say KIMCHEE!!
The most rewarding part of what I do is being able to touch the lives of others. I am continuously inspired and know for sure that I’ve reached someone else by the proportional blessings that I reap and feel. The more you give, the more you get. Fairly recently I had the opportunity to speak…

It’s Not Me!
It’s Not Me! It’s not me, it’s Life. I’m constantly trying to convince myself of this fallacy. Life is really stressful right now. I’ll bet my list of “life stressors” is longer than yours! I breed stress. It’s how I roll. I knew for sure, though, that I was in trouble as I sat at…

I’m a Cracked Pot
No, no. It’s not what you’re thinking. I had to come up with some catchy title to lure readers today, being that I’m not writing about bacon again this time. I am a cracked pot, though. And so are you. My life is an open book…or so I thought. I am strikingly honest and open…

Christmas Cheer
Several years ago we were visited by the “Neighborhood Angel.” A tiny little package of homemade cookies and hot chocolate mix arrived on our doorstep with a little note, instructing us to pass along the spirit of the Angel. Since then it has become a tradition for us to secretly bless our unsuspecting neighbors during…
