2013: A Year to Be Real

2013

2013. It’s already in swing.

I am just days late of posting this on New Year’s Day, but I just needed more time. Many bloggers posted a word for the year and it got me thinking… if I had a word I wanted to describe what I wanted this year to be about what in the world would it be?

Pretty on Paper: Stationary Goodies

Stationary

I love paper… I always have. I love writing, sketching, making lists & scheduling events. At the beginning of each new year I try to start fresh with new journals/sketchbooks, stationary, notepads & calendars (for obvious reasons). There’s something about jotting down a quick note to Kevin (or a family member, friend or client) on cute stationary or brainstorming new ideas in my journal that make my heart so happy!

28 Things…

28 things

Monday, February 6th, I turned 28! I had a fabulous birthday surrounded by family who love me…. it was pure bliss. Even though New Year’s is generally perceived as the ‘beginning of the year’, my birthday always feels like the beginning of mine. I am a big “birthday girl”. I love birthdays. In fact, I have a “birthday week” I love it so much!

It’s that time of year when you just want warm comfort food!! Being gluten free, sometimes it’s hard to come up with creative, quick and easy fall & winter meals…
