Our lives were like pie. Or more like my grandmother’s macaroni and cheese. You know the kind of dish that is a family secret; simply incredible in its taste and texture. That’s what he and I were like; amazing in texture with many layers having to be swirled in a bowl together in order for …

Of The Things I Miss: Me
Me. I have been missing. I apologize. I get into this cycle where I write as if my life depends on it and then life somehow interferes and I am left to somehow intertwine my love for letters back into my reality. Most times I feel lost without it. Writing that is. To be completely …
French Friday: Gage
So, in my quest to indulge in all things French, I am still discovering more French music. Of course, to many French/Canadian natives or any other enthusiasts like me, these songs are not new. However, like Christopher Columbus (joke intended) I have discovered these great songs.

Recently, I visited the Max Brenner: Chocolate by the Bald Man restaurant on 15tth Street (between Walnut and Locust). …
My French Addiction
I have been learning French. It dawned on me as an adult that I wanted to learn a new language. As a traveler I am always fascinated by different cultures. From their fashion to their food, I feel like a child when exploring. Inquisitive and curious all the while wanting to know how different we …
The World Is My Backstage: Mommy Makeover
We all have amazing people in our lives. Sometimes they are within our midst and we do not even recognize them.

The Role of Mothers
We all rest in our thoughts at times. More recently, I have decided to share some of the thoughts that linger in my mind throughout the day with my friends and family via Facebook. Of course not all things are meant to be placed on social media, but the musing of my mind at times …
