I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine!

This past week while walking the city streets of New York, I came across a large gathering while the helicopters buzzed above. They circled and circled making me a bit nervous. Was there a new protest? Was there a fatal incident? What was happening? Turns out that a […]
Many moons ago, I came across the word “satisficer”. I love words and collecting them. I throw them into my memory bank and I pepper those words in certain conversation salads just to play around. Mind you, this is not the same as using fancy GRE or $10 […]
