    Wild by Cheryl Strayed – the Book I Read Because of Gilmore Girls

    Remember when we were all on that big Gilmore Girls kick over the holidays because Netflix released 4 new episodes? If you always considered yourself a Rory + Loralei nerd, lemme tell ya. You haven’t reached true Gilmore Girl nerd status until you read the book Wild by Cheryl Strayed just because it was part of…

  • New Year Resolution Ideas that Add Up To Big Changes

    New Year Resolution Ideas that Add Up To Big Changes

    If you’re looking for new year resolution ideas, try ditching the idea of the new year resolution. Last year, our church gave us a challenge on January 1.

    Always Look on the Bright Side of Life (insert whistling)

    Isn’t it funny how certain phrases will trigger entire songs in your brain for hours on end? The phrase “Always look on the bright side of life” will have me humming the song from Life of Brian for hours after I hear it. My mind will helpfully insert footage from the old Monty Python film…

    Like a Bird Napping in a Tree

    Sometimes, when I’m really tired, I’ll snuggle down into my hoodie like I’m a bird napping in a tree. I know it’s weird. I just got done telling you how tired I am.
