Watching other people live life
They call them vlogs, those videos where people show you how they are living their lives. They take you with them to the grocery store, the camera perched in the child’s seat in the shopping cart. They take you out with them to Starbucks, and you can see exactly how they order their drinks. They…

I gave up indecision
Hello, I am indecisive. This has been my plight for years. I have been that person who just closed her eyes and waved her finger over a menu to finally make a choice, and then regret it and try to switch yet again. I have struggled for years, so much so that I started to…

The easier you make returns, the more likely I am to return as a customer
One luxury that I can’t live without: easy returns. Based on the content of this blog, you, like I, might have thought that I would say something like skincare or fragrance.

Breakfast at Nobu?
Yes, the famed sushi restaurant is open for breakfast as well. (Well, some of the locations are.) The menu is of course different, but it still has the Nobu flare. During my experience at Nobu Atlanta I decided to order the Breakfast Roll. With the reputation of the restaurant, I sincerely thought this was going…

Start small, like a puppy
Puppies. That is the first thing that came to my mind. I am just following today’s writing prompt. Now what to do with that. Puppies are baby dogs. Wow this is an amazing post. But they are also little rascals. They bite everything. Fall asleep everywhere. Tear holes in brand new shorts. But they grow…
