I’m about a week (or more) late on March’s Lookback List, so I’m going to attempt to keep this one short and sweet! I have a few other good posts in mind for the month of April. 🙂 MARCH IN REVIEW READING: I’m a little embarrassed to tell you guys that I am STILL on … More 4.10 March’s Lookback
A couple of weeks ago, my mom messaged my brothers and I this: “What if you woke up today with only the things you gave thanks for yesterday?” It stuck with me. I’ve mentioned before on this little blog of mine, about how this year I am trying to put more emphasis on living … More 3.29 A Sunny Spot on the Floor
I wanted to take a moment on the blog today to congratulate my incredible husband, and his best friend, on being finishers in the LA Marathon last Sunday! To anyone not familiar, a marathon is a whopping 26.2 miles, but it’s not really the race itself that’s the tough part (in fact, I personally think … More 3.22 Al Runs the LA Marathon
Hi everybody! I posted a little about this, this time last year, but realized that I never shared the recipe!

Al and I have been talking a lot about budgeting lately. Since getting married, we’ve been combining accounts and looking for ways to save or better spend our income. And it’s funny – it being tax season and all – but you look at all the money you’ve earned over the year and you think, … More 2.21 A Girls Trip to Maui
I don’t know about you guys, but January felt like it was about ninety days long to me! I think it always feels like the longest month of the year because we’re coming off of so many holiday celebrations with friends and family, and that first week back to work feels like 15 days in … More 2.2 January in Review
A funny thing (to me) about LA is that the number of people who own dogs is extremely high, while the number of apartments that allow dogs and/or have a yard for said dogs is extremely low. Lucky enough for us, we have all three: a dog, an apartment that allows dogs, and a big … More 1.13 Turning the Dog Beach into a Family Date Day
In my first spin class of the new year, my instructor said something that really resonated with me. She said “One Day or Day One. You choose.” With resolutions in full swing, I think this is the perfect thing to keep in mind, not just now, but throughout the entirety of 2018 and beyond!
