An Apology


A few things have happened very recently that makes me want to talk about apologies. I had a very inspiring conversation with Elissa Kravetz of The Farley Project, she is so inspirational and uplifting, and my amazing friend Miya was there with me. If you know Miya, you know she is one of the most positive and genuine people you'll ever meet. We all talked about bullying today, about emotions, and about apologies.

OOTD - Mini Skirts and Crop Tops!

As much as I love lounging around in tees and leggings, and sporting my favorite casual chic styles, I really love to get all dressed up for a night out! In this case it was for a luncheon and then dinner party later that afternoon. So bring on the mini skirts and high heels I say!

For those of you out there on a cleanse, or if you're gluten free, or vegan, this one's for YOU! So the night Fr. Leo came over to cook up a storm, one of our friends was on a cleanse (I know right, I felt so bad that all this carb dense food was staring at him!) and my daughter is a gluten free vegetarian, soooo we had to make something that wasn't all carbs and meat haha! This dish was refreshing to our palettes and diet friendly to our friends. Win win baby! So lets get cookin shall we!
