I was recently summoned for jury duty. Again. This is my 4th year I have received a summons since I registered in the state in 2012. Yup, I am one of the lucky ones. After a 1 year period from the date you are summoned, you can possibly get called again. However, I have never served on [...]
So I have a confession to make, 6 years later: Once I left Minnesota and moved the LA, the first 3 years of being here I loathed my hometown of Minneapolis. I felt like my friends and family were stuck and didn't know how move on. I was being exposed to such a different culture in [...]
I cannot believe Thanksgiving week is already here! Where has the time gone? :) I usually spend Thanksgiving with friends, I don't go home to visit with my parents.

In recent months I have gotten some emails from readers wanting me to give them advice about dating in SoCal. After all, it is one of my categories on my blog! Most of these women have been between the ages of 28 - 39. I've been dodging it, but I think it's time to speak. [...]

Hopefully you already use these and enjoy them just as much as I do or might want to try them out! Here are my body products [...]
Ahhh...fall. My favorite season of the year: the crisp air, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and a chance to throw on a cozy sweater...when it's not so hot out like it has been in SoCal the past few years of course! I love when it does eventually get cooler outside. Here are 10 fall trends I am [...]
