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!

In a column in yesterday’s Politico, television host Joe Scarborough notes with great dismay the “hyperbolic” discussions post-Zimmerman acquittal. […]
Does the light come from above or from within or is there no light at all in this mind and body alcove Lightness and being being is lightness and that can be freeing At the end there is night and darkness in this life’s bend But take solace […]
Are you frightened by a man in a sharp-dressed suit? And, I do not mean being frightened by the Wall Street types and their ability to sink our economy into a deep, vast economic sinkhole. I mean, does a man in a nice suit give you the “heebie […]
