Read MoreThe Piercing Saga Continues…
So, if you’ve been playing along, you know that I got my nose pierced this summer and it has been infected and annoying since then. My piercer told me to just clean it with soap, keep my fingers away from it, and use salt water if it gets infected. It didn’t seem to be working,Read the whole post >>
Read More32 Hours on a Bus Will Do That to You.
(I always feel like I’m catching up with friends when I click, “New Post” and start typing away. I kind of like you guys.) After 32 hours in a bus, two days of walking, a bit of rain, and an amazing experience – I’m back and completely rejuvenated and inspired. (Minus my body, whichRead the whole post >>

Read MoreI Just Realized I Might Be a Failed Neurotic.

Read MoreFoolproof Granola.
I haven’t had much time to cook lately, so I made sure to spent lots of time in the kitchen this weekend. I made cupcakes with peanut butter frosting, pumpkin pancakes, scrambled tofu, and an amazing pizza. And….granola. Oh, granola. (Cooking with bad lighting can’t be helped. Alas.)

When I was in high school, I became quite religious myself – leading retreats for other high schoolers, reading my Bible, praying, and being aRead the whole post >>
