I'm getting kind of excited about spending some untethered time in NYC. I feel like circumstances are aligning. The sun is expected to shine in mild blue skies. The moon will be nearly full and, I predict, spectacular. I have a good idea about what I'm going to wear (cutoff shorts with footless tights, flat … Continue reading New York City, just like I’m picturing it

Yoga and the best shift ever
Have you seen this heartwarming video? I myself tried to resist the repeated postings and “likes” on Facebook, but finally caved a few days ago and watched it. I cried. There was something so touching about Chelsea’s story – her own recovery from an eating disorder, the support she provides to her younger sibling, her … Continue reading Yoga and the best shift ever

Crockpot suppers, roasted root vegetables and hearty stews are some of my favorite (and … Continue reading Longing for spring
