  • Hiking

    What are your favorite physical activities or exercises? My favorite physical activity is hiking. Theres just something about being outdoors and seeing views that makes the “exercise” seem like it isn’t a chore. Hiking can be incredibly challenging for me due to my physical limitations, but I do my best not to let these limitations

  • So, yeah, I have been a bit MIA lately. As some of you know, I moved over 800 miles back to New England about a month ago after a brief, 2-year stint in North Carolina. We are now in Manchester, New Hampshire. Before we moved to NC, we lived in Massachusetts. We have had a

  • Beach With a Mountain View

    Why choose when you can have both? Our favorite beach in the lakes and mountain region of New Hampshire is Ellacoya State Park in Gilford.

    This was a tough question as I have only been living in my current city for a little over 2 weeks now, but of course I have already been to the Manchester City Public Library.

  • Finders Keepers!

    This was a tough one and it took me a while to think of a good one. That being said, I think the coolest thing I found and kept (had to buy it though) was the Joy of Cooking 1953 hardcover version. I love this cookbook and used to have a newer version but it

  • Daily Routine

    There isn’t any part of my routine that I try to skip, at least on workdays. I am a creature of habit and like to have my mornings structured to mentally set me up for a good workday. I also have fibromyalgia and mornings are tough. By establishing and following a routine, I don’t forget
