When some people think of Fall, they think of death, decay, and the beginning of darkness. I tend to see the opposite. I think that Fall is a magical, bright, and bountiful time filled with possibility and change. It is a time of year when we get the chance to redefine our goals and how we present ourselves to the world. It is also the time of year when the delicious starchy and sweet crops that were planted during the summer ripen and nourish our bellies and souls. I absolutely love going to the farmer’s market during this time of year and seeing the colorful and lush assortment of apples, squash, gourds, potatoes, dark leafy greens, carrots, radishes, and nuts. The rich greens, reds, oranges, and browns of the season are as comforting as the warm blankets, soft knitted sweaters and accessories, and hot cups of spiced cider or tea that I begin to crave and utilize the minute the air turns crisp and chilly.
This Fall is especially special to me, because I launched Bonded Forever this past September. All of my hard work has yielded my company’s first batch of jewelry. Please go to www.bondedforeverjewelry.com to pick the first fruit of my labors. I look forward to seeing how people respond to my crop so that I can fine tune the growth cycle for the next season.

A couple of weeks ago my Dad and I filmed my video promo for Bonded Forever. I’m so luck to have such a talented and patient father that I can collaborate with so effortlessly. Stay tuned for the finished product!

Beadworks is my absolutely favorite bead store in Philadelphia. I love walking around the store and looking at all of the beautiful assortments of beads and metal findings ( I mean seriously, what girl doesn’t like to look at pretty, shiny things?) There is so much eye candy there that I sometimes get too overwhelmed and leave empty handed. I’m so happy that I was able to focus today and find some beautiful strands of beads. There is nothing more satisfying than walking home with a clandestine big brown paper bag filled with my handpicked treasures. I can’t wait to turn these beads into one of a kind jewelry creations for Bonded Forever. Stay tuned!

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mother’s out there!
I’m so lucky to have an awesome mother and grandmother. It is also such a blessing that they are both still here. I wish that I could have celebrated the holiday with them today, but I unfortunately was on call for work and was not allowed to leave the area. I’m happy that my mom was able to text me this picture. They both look so good (I especially love my Mom’s new haircut)! The only thing missing in this picture is my sister and I.
Although I couldn’t be with them today, I was able to have two nice phone chats with them. My Mom reported that she had a really nice visit at my Grammy and Grandpa’s house, a long relaxing walk along the Jersey Shore, dessert at a gourmet ice cream shop, and a fancy dinner at a restaurant that overlooked the ocean. She totally deserved to have such a nice and relaxing day. She works so hard and has been through so much.
Thank you, Mom, for being the best mother that a daughter could have. I appreciate all of the sacrifices that you have made for me, your helpful advice, and your unconditional love. You always proudly said that being a mother was your greatest achievement and that one of the best rewards for it would be if your two daughters could always like AND love you. I like you and love you, Mom!

To play along with the theme from yesterday’s photo inspiration post, I thought that this picture also symbolized resilience and hope. I also think that the blades of grass and the divide between the two pieces of cement can represent the breakthrough towards wellness.

I’m so fortunate and lucky that my boyfriend, Travis, and I moved into a beautiful house this past January. We have the most amazing view of the Philadelphia skyline from our roof. I remember the moment when our realtor took us up onto the roof for the first time during our tour. The chilly winter air and view took our breath away. We both looked at each other and mentally said, “Sold!”
I absolutely love Philadelphia and I can’t imagine myself living in any other city. Whenever I’m feeling down or low on energy, I know that I can go up on my roof, breath in the crisp air, take in the silent energetic pulse of the City of Brotherly Love, marvel at the skyline, and know that everything will be okay.
