.my Q3 2026 reads.

I read a lot in Q3. It was summer, and hot, and I didn’t want to go outside, so this is the result I guess. Enjoy! July The Hunger Games Series Suzanne Collins Dystopian 10/10 Quick Review: Yes, I read all five Hunger Games books in 1 month, and I’d do it again! Will I…

.almost everything i ate in Mallorca.

My husband and I recently took a weeklong trip to Mallorca. It was such a nice vacation! We spent time by the pool, lying on the beach, checking out different sights, and, of course, eating! We typically made our own breakfast, but ate out for lunch and dinner. Every meal was delicious, so I figured…

.15 years.

About my hair… I don’t usually write a whole blog post on this subject, but since I’m in my blogging era and 15 years seems special (because it ends in a 5), I’ll write about my hair this year. Fifteen years ago, I cut off all my hair. When I was young, my mother would…

.a view on Strangers.

I don’t expect this review to be too long, but it’ll be too long for a “quick review”. I picked up Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage by Belle Burden after watching a review from Chelsea Fagan of The Financial Diet on YouTube. I don’t typically read non-fiction because I don’t usually find that genre to…

Curtain Up!

My first show in 3 years. Before I haven’t performed in years. When I moved to Philly, I had no idea how to get into the theatre/music scene there, but I was so busy working, honestly, I felt that exercise was the better option anyway, so I’m not upset. I did manage to do one…

.after 6 months, I’ve decided to start running again.

Last September, I ran the Copenhagen half-marathon, and although I enjoyed the route through Copenhagen’s city center, I was absolutely depleted after that race. I wasn’t shooting for a specific time; I just wanted to complete it and feel good. Then I ran the Philly 8k during the Philadelphia Marathon weekend in November. I felt…
