Yoga Room

June 21, 2021 by Karen Filed Under: Healthy Living, Personal Leave a Comment

Yoga Room

Today is the International Day of Yoga so I'm sharing my new yoga room! A few months ago I finally decided what to do with one of the basement rooms that we never used. When we purchased the home the sellers had a massive wall-to-wall TV in front of the window with a big leather couch in … [Read more...]

Book Review: Eat the Yolks

The first decade of my life was spent in South Alabama in the 70s with access to rural farms. Summers were spent in rural Florida on my grandfather's farm. The food I had then was real food. Fresh from the farm food. Along the way, we moved to the big city and with two working parents, the 80s and … [Read more...]

Blue Apron vs HelloFresh vs Sun Basket

Blue Apron vs HelloFresh vs Sun Basket

Let's talk subscription meal kit delivery. Do any of my readers do this? Blue Apron, HelloFresh, Sun Basket, Plated, etc etc. They seem to be popular these days. But, I'm not really one for following trends or being popular. Just ask anyone that went to middle school or high school with me. … [Read more...]

Water Bottle & Straw Review

Water Bottle & Straw Review

A girly girls review of water bottles and straws. Exciting stuff eh? I have a love/hate relationship with water bottles. I use them for all manner of liquids (water, Coca-Cola, iced tea, smoothies, etc) and that may be why my relationship with them is so tortured. Some are just not geared for the … [Read more...]

I 💗 sending and receiving happy mail! One of I 💗 sending and receiving happy mail! 

One of my very favorite artists, @emily_jeffords, has started a monthly fine art collectors club by mail. June is my first month and it is focused on finding inner peace and the value of a life full of pleasure. 

For $12 a month, it includes beautiful artwork titled “When She Smiles”, a letter full of thoughts, a touch of perfume of the month to inspire your senses, affirmation or poetry of the month, and a curated music playlist. One day, I have a dream to actually own an original piece but for now these small prints will do. 

I framed this month’s artwork and took it to work to join the other framed pieces I have in my cubicle. Why have an ugly cubicle?

Hey y'all! I'm Karen, a Gulf Coast of Florida based purveyor of Southern sass. I'm an Indiana Jones & Anthony Bourdain wannabe. I'm introverted and usually found with my nose in a book and pen/pencil in hand. I'm addicted to yoga, lip gloss, dumplings, and have an intense love for Scotland and Paris.
