First Fridays in Indianapolis are evenings filled with art, music, culture, drinking, dancing, friends, new people, new experiences and … Continue reading
I had a discussion the other day about friendships. Old friendships and new friends…best friends and acquaintances. I feel so lucky to have friends that have been by my side for years and years now. Take my friend Christina for instance. We’ve known each other for 15 years; through boyfriends, breakups, living across the country, good … Continue reading
When I was in elementary school, I used to tell my parents that I was going to live in a purple motor home in the Carmel High School parking lot and work as a cashier at O’Malia’s as a profession. I don’t know why being a grocery store cashier sounded like so much fun, but … Continue reading
As long as I can remember, I’ve never wanted to have kids. I was never really a babysitter when I was younger, it just wasn’t my thing. I was a lifeguard, and that was hard enough having to be around kids at the pool all day. When I think about little kids, all I can … Continue reading
For the past couple of weeks, I’ve been living like a middle-aged woman. I’ve been going to bed early, staying in on the weekends and buying lots of presents for kids’ birthdays.

This morning, I woke up early (8:00 am, which is early to me…don’t judge) and went to the gym. I haven’t been the best at keeping up a workout routine, and by that, I mean I haven’t been to the gym in five months. When I hurt my back, I went to use the pool … Continue reading
I’ve been attempting the perfect pot of chili for quite some time now. Every pot I make always tastes different, but not amazing. I’ve scoured Pinterest and picked the brains of my faithful Tweeps, and I think I’ve finally perfected my own signature chili recipe. Ingredients: 2 pounds ground beef Beer of your choice (I … Continue reading
Let’s talk a bit about customer service, shall we? As a business, I feel as though you should try to please loyal customers. I’m not talking about giving away free stuff or treating them like royalty, but simply keeping them happy. These return customers obviously have money and want to spend that hard-earned money with … Continue reading
