There are some real ups and downs this week, and I’m grateful for them all. A lot of people I love celebrate their birthdays this week—happy birthday!! I put in an offer on a property in Newport Beach, and I’m the first backup. It feels like such a bummer, but it’s okay too. There will be…
I want to be Olivia Pope, only not in Washington, just in life. It took me a few years to start watching Scandal (and I haven’t watched this season yet), but boy did I binge-watch once I did! At last night’s Oscars, Kerry Washington looked every bit the power player in her black-leather-bustier dress with a flowy…
My squad in Austin last weekend was insane, even if the trip ended in food poisoning that still has some of us down for the count (damn sensitive bellies). I don’t know how it took me so long to come up with the idea, but I’m going to post photo recaps of FGF on instagram…
UPDATE: The winner is MARA! In the interest of looking flawless like a faux celeb should, I am constantly chasing the perfect face makeup. For a clean beauty lover, mineral makeups are a go-to. In the past, though, I’ve chosen to go more traditional, using Paula’s Choice or Urban Decay because I don’t care for the texture. However,…
Um. Imma be honest about what I’m doing here. I’m backdating this Feel Good Friday. I got called out on it today: Friend: maybe do a double this friday? idk you’re the celebrity Here’s what I would have been grateful for had I actually posted on Friday and before the weekend took place: Good humor,…

When you’re so busy starting a new job and already taking time off to travel because of a pre-planned trip(s) so you set up a blog post for feel good friday because you just have to keep up your gratitude lists but literally forget to hit publish. Feel good Tuesday! Here’s me. I started a new…
A week off is a wonderful thing. Reset, recharge, relax. And play all the sports! So grateful.
The Texans are 100% my NFL football team, but lost in the first round of the playoffs (playoffs! made it, suckas!) My #2 team is the Denver Broncos, on account of my Colorado time, and friends who love the donkeys. So we know who I’m rooting for on Saturday. Here’s what I would be wearing…
I’ve been making this stupid simple soup for over ten years (before ‘paleo’ entered anyone’s lexicon), but it had fallen out of my regular routine until I was cold last week and wanted something warm to bring for an engagement party potluck. This is the analog recipe: fatfree.com/recipes/fruit-soups/sweet-potato-pear-soup (how embarrassing) SWEET POTATO PEAR SOUP 1/2 onion, diced…
