I arrived at LAX more than an hour and a half before my flight. “Impressive,” my internal self-chatter beamed. I usually cut it a little closer to the wire giving myself an hour tops to wait, but this was somewhat of a mother’s day surprise so I didn’t want to take any chances. My preparation … Continue reading »

{My Favorite Things Monday}
It’s Monday, which usually brings the blues, but not today. Here are a few of my current favorites that are bringing me some joy on this gloomy day: 1. Wildflower Earthly Vegan Fare in Millville.

Couch Surfing – Part 1: Sleeping on a stranger’s couch?
Recently, I traveled for thirty days on a cross-country trip from Nashville, TN. to Los Angeles, CA. Though I was accommodated by bed and breakfasts and hotels on most nights, I also wanted to try a little something called couch surfing.
