I can easily eat pickles as a snack and feel full and content. I never understood why pickles were considered a pregnant woman’s craving. I eat them all the time. Salt. Brine. Yum. And during these pandemic times, I’ve gotten even more into pickles. It’s comfort food I […]
I have lived in 22 cities. I’ve moved around a lot. And, that is an understatement. Just in the city of Los Angeles alone I lived in four places. Moving, no matter what, is stressful. Leave it to me, to move apartments during a pandemic. Why not? Having […]
