What’s the oldest things you’re wearing today? I have several closets full of dresses and more dresses. A closet full of shoes and more shoes. A closet maxed out in blouses, shirts, and jeans. And, many of these are older than a decade. I just can’t follow that […]
Yesterday I was ranting and raving about my love of meatballs. Which still holds true today and most likely tomorrow. We all have certain things we just love. Can be strawberry Gelato, pizza, or curry eggplant. I actually love all those things. But right now, I’m not feeling […]
Many years ago, I gleefully bought a sweatshirt that says “done”. I keep it around with me so that I put it on at any given moment. “Done” can be that I’m celebrating finishing a project. “Done” can be that I’m fed up and not tolerating it anymore. […]

I hate sorting silverware. I hate it so much that I no longer do it. I just throw my utensils into a drawer and hope I can find what I need when I need it. No sorting. No more. It is a bit liberating to be honest with […]
Sigh. I had been so excited to buy this beautiful beige trenchcoat. Super excited. I hadn’t owned a trenchcoat in ages. Why I wanted to wear one now, is anyone’s guess. Could be I felt I needed extra protection. Could be I really wanted the pockets. Whatever the […]
