Adventures at home – cooking
Baby I went from hating cooking to actually really loving it recently, so listen up. Why I started trying to like cooking You have to eat to live. That’s all. And I realized I was spending about $500 a month eating out (my eyes are covered, I’m embarrassed) which is $500 I could be saving…

Dreams that wait….
Not every dream happens overnight. I’m in this weird place right now where I decided to go on a long, indefinite backpacking trip. Yet I am finishing out my semester of dance, staying at my job I love a little longer, spending time with family and friends a little longer. And it freaks me out…
