It can be difficult to find a job as a teenager. These days, many jobs are in high demand. Also, it might be hard to know what businesses will hire teens or younger teens. Today I’m sharing the story of my first job, where I worked and what I did as a teenager for work. […]

2021 Year Review

I’ve written a year review on my blog almost every year since starting my blog in 2010. But as I prepared to write this and absorbed the headlines and local news here in Cleveland, Ohio I felt like this year didn’t seem much different or special compared to the year before, and a far cry […]

Working Retail

Starting at the end of 2014, I worked a seasonal retail job at a department store from end of October through mid-January. To be honest, I still miss that job from time to time and my experience working retail. With having a daughter now, my schedule is still too crazy to work a second job. […]

2020 Year Review

Nothing like waiting until last minute to recap my year! For whatever reason I seem to put together a massive year-end to do list every year on the final day of the year. This is my 2020 Year Review. It’s been a tradition for me for many years now to write a year end recap […]

2019 Year Review

It’s the final day of the year. I’m baking some goodies for New Year’s Eve and writing my annual year in review post. A year ago I did much the same. I’m definitely a creature of habit. We had our second snow of the year today and tomorrow looks perfect for some playtime with our […]

2018 Year Review

As I’m writing this I’m making my second batch of (oh so addictive) Chex Mix this holiday season. We are spending the last day of the year at home as a family, nothing big planned here with having a toddler and all. We went to the gym this morning so I am ending my 2018 […]

What I've Learned

In April 2010, I began blogging. Today I’m reflecting, once more, on what I’ve learned from blogging. I’m still cleaning house on old posts – paring down 500+ posts to the current 350 posts on this blog. The oldest post in my archive is this one – which has me itching to make that recipe now that I’m […]

2016 Year Review

In the past I have written year in review posts based on how many miles I ran, month by month, that year. The last few years have been negligible in terms of running. In fact I think 2012 was the last year I kept track of my mileage. But that’s OK, I’m back with a 2016 […]

Meet Jake Gyllenhaal

Over the past few weeks I took part in a two different ice breakers where I was asked if I had met any celebrities. Everyone’s definition of a celebrity is different: from local TV news personalities, to regional chefs to A-List actors. But everyone has a story. Here’s mine of the time it came to […]
