April was a busy month! This year as a whole, so far, has felt like a blur. The only way I can actually recall what happened in April is by…

All the happenings in March!

February - even though there are 28 days, it still feels like a very, very short month! I'm not even sure where my time went! Thankfully it's officially March! And…

I honestly feel a sense of relief as January has finally ended. Throughout the month of January, there is a constant pressure to do things better, to do things faster,…

2018 – you were good. 2019, whatcha got for me?

One week into the year and I have yet to write a reflection / looking ahead post – it’s a necessity for a blog right?

Last week was quite uneventful for the most part. It was filled with lots of baking: cookies, cupcakes, macarons – i.e.: my happy place. I also reconnected with my colleagues and it was a nice chance of pace. It made me realize how happy I am with the decision I’ve made.

I think all this distraction was much needed to get away from the online rehashing of what happened in the midterm elections. The voter turnout and the results were definitely a sigh of relief for those of us watching from afar. All hope is not lost!
