Is it just me or does that title seem highly sexual?...Oh well, I'm here for it! You know what I'm also here for? Not having dry skin! Which, let me tell you, is no joke. Not only is it unsightly, it's also embarrassing. But, worst of all, it can sometimes be painful. Actually, my hands… Continue reading How I Keep my Body Soft and Supple

Like most people, I do not have a firm grasp of who I am (I envy those that do). There’s the basics, I’m a student, a counselor in training, a mom to many (the joys of being a babysitter). But, as far as the essence of who I am, I’m hoping that I’ll figure that out by 30. For now I’m trying to do more, see more, and be more.
Why I Decided to Stop “Dating”
About a month ago I said to hell with it. That is, I decided to 1. delete all of my dating apps (Tinder, OK Cupid, Happn, and Bumble) and 2. not look for potential love in my everyday life. You see, dating had gotten extremely frustrating and disheartening. Actually, dating has always been that way,… Continue reading Why I Decided to Stop “Dating”
Ikea Love vs. Small Kitchen Woes
One of the smallest rooms in our apartment is our kitchen (I wish I had decent pics to show you). That's because it's a kitchen, living room, and dining room all in one. Basically our kitchen is just a section of our common space, where the common space is the size of a normal-sized kitchen… Continue reading Ikea Love vs. Small Kitchen Woes
Purposeful Resolutions: Part 2
In my last post I talked about my resolutions and why, despite my dislike for them, I made three this year. My first and biggest resolution was to live without fear. With that in mind, I plan to live by the motto "Fuck fear! Go for it!" for the rest of 2016 and beyond. It's a… Continue reading Purposeful Resolutions: Part 2
Purposeful Resolutions: Part I
The day after new years, my friends and I discussed our resolutions for 2016. As usual, I couldn't (and wouldn't) think of anything concrete to add to the mix (I'm pretty sure I added some throw away comment). This is nothing new of course, I've always been strong in my distaste for resolutions. Why look to the… Continue reading Purposeful Resolutions: Part I

Cauliflower Stir Fry
Disclaimer: I am not a cook. Matter of fact, I suck at cooking. This is me trying my hands at something and offering it to you to do as you please. However, I won't post a recipe unless it tastes good, promise! Pretty sure this is my first time eating cauliflower. Can't wait to try cauliflower… Continue reading Cauliflower Stir Fry
I’m Loving It: January
Monthly post featuring my current favorites. Candles: I've recently developed an obsession with candles. It started with my roommate and her obsession with Anthropologie candles. The scent of the flickering one in the living room used to always greet me at the door...It made our apartment feel like home. So when I went to Target to… Continue reading I’m Loving It: January
Conquering the Hunt
When I made the decision to move out of my mom's place in Long Island to an apartment in Manhattan I immediately started doing my research. I researched potential neighborhoods, the cost for the apartments in those neighborhoods, and the subway system in each area. I then started working on my finances. Once I was… Continue reading Conquering the Hunt
Low Carb Snack Options
One of the biggest struggles I've been having with my low carb journey is finding low carb snacks. I find that it's easy to make a low carb meal because I have the time to do so or I meal prep for those days I don't. Snacks, on the other hand, needs to be readily… Continue reading Low Carb Snack Options
