Boho Souls Gather Here

Some of us like our peace more than people. Let’s just start there. We’ve made our own beds—soft, quiet, sometimes with too many blankets and an unreasonable number of pillows. And sure, we stretch out like we own the world. But even the fiercest lone wolves feel the ache of wanting to be understood. Not managed. Not fixed. Not shown off like a trophy. Just gotten. Let’s not pretend that…

Biscotti.. a scrumptious treat that pairs perfectly with a hot and creamy cup of coffee.. Quick breakfast or anytime snack.. and while it’s good anytime, fresh baked and still warm just can’t be beat. I found this recipe on the side of a quick bread box.  Today I made cranberry orange biscotti but you can use any quick read for the same results. I sometimes add nuts or chocolate chips into it…

Picking Your Eggplant (Don’t Screw This Up) Eggplant is like dating: pick the wrong one, and it’s bitter, seedy, and will ruin your night. Here’s what you want: Firm, glossy skin: If it looks dull, it’s old. Light but not hollow: A good eggplant feels sturdy in your hand, not like a sad sponge. Check the cap: The stem should be green, not brown and crusty (red flag energy). Prepping Your…

What book could you read over and over again? Whil some people find solace in the familiar, I thrive venturing into the world of the unknown. I do sometimes reread a book, but  the world of literature is a vast ocean, filled with undiscovered treasures and uncharted territories just waiting to be explored. Every new book is a portal to a different realm, beckoning me with its unique allure. My…

As I pour out these words, it feels like I’m peeling back layers of my soul, revealing the raw truth of my existence. I’ve been holding onto this secret for so long, afraid to admit it even to myself: I think I’m dying. Not in the dramatic sense, but in the quiet, relentless erosion of my spirit. For as long as I can remember, life has been a series of uphill battles, each victory overshadowed…

What activities do you lose yourself in? The activities I lose myself in? It’s more like jumping from one exciting adventure to the next. One moment, I’m knee-deep in renovating my whole house, organizing every nook and cranny with obsessive detail. Then suddenly, I’m immersed in the world of photography, capturing moments with the intensity of a seasoned pro. As someone with ADHD, it’s like…

What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times? More than 5 times? I can’t even name anything I watched probably more than once. TV and I? We’re like oil and water. It’s been a good two decades since I bid adieu to cable, and honestly, I haven’t looked back since. There’s just something about television that doesn’t quite click with me. It feels fake, pretentious even, and I’m just…

It’s hard to avoid hearing about the migrant crisis these days. Whether you’re sipping coffee with friends or sitting in a corporate meeting, it seems like everyone has something to say about it. But amidst all the noise, there’s a group of us who feel like our voices aren’t being heard. We know that America is a diverse place, full of people from all over the world. And while some folks are…

Write a letter to your 100-year-old self. My dearest older self, Writing this letter brings a flood of emotions knowing you’ve reached the incredible milestone of 100 years. Our journey has been anything but easy, battling mental health and depression our whole life.  There were moments when the darkness threatened to consume us, but somehow, we found the strength to just keep going. You’ve…

What is one question you hate to be asked? Explain. Ah, the age-old question: “Are you a witch?” It’s a query I’ve grown accustomed to, often met with a sly grin and a twinkle in my eye. But am I a witch? Well, let’s just say I’ve dedicated my life to a journey of learning, dreaming, and connecting with the natural rhythms of the universe. You see, I’ve always felt a deep kinship with the…

It’s beyond time that we have a real talk about something that’s been weighing heavily on the minds and hearts of many: the housing crisis in America. It’s not just numbers and statistics; it’s about real people, real families, facing the terrifying prospect of losing their homes. But here’s the thing – it’s not enough to just talk about it.  We need to roll up our sleeves, come together and…
