Hello Friends! After yesterday’s post, some positivity is needed!  I’m not gonna lie..doing all of that research on the topic got me pretty upset with humanity and I just wanted to lock my door and never leave (this hotel room?).

Hello Friends! It’s FRIDAY!  I always have mixed feelings about the weekend. In my waitressing/coffee catering days, I worked weekends, so while it was cool to not have school…I still had to get up at 4:30am a lot of Saturdays to work the farmer’s market or work Saturday nights at the wing-n-beer joint.  Now I…
