what I've been up to

Do you engage with people you pass by?⠀
⠀
(This post is not about crystals but I think my little crystal bowl is preeeetty.)⠀
⠀
I have found, mostly since I changed my lifestyle habits/job/joys, that I say hello to people who I meet in the elevator, pass in the hall, pass on the street (provided I'm not on the phone or keeping a kid from a meltdown).⠀
⠀
It's a simple act but I find most of the time, you get a "hello" back and well...it's really nice!⠀
⠀
Why don't you try it this week and see what happens?⠀

When I worked at Food Network in NYC, I used to treat myself, only in the fall and winter 😂, to a Starbucks skinny vanilla latte on my walk to work. (simple joys, yea?)⠀
⠀
I was never a coffee person so I guess that's why it was a cold weather only treat.⠀
⠀
Anyway - I didn't know then that skinny things meant chemical things. Now, if I'm going to have something sweet - I go for something naturally sweetened (ie dates) or just plain ol' sugar.⠀
⠀
If I want my coffee creamy, I will use oat or almond milk. (I just really hate the taste of cow milk - it tastes like metal to me; but if you are going to have it - go for the real deal, not skim.)⠀
⠀
ANYWAY, the point of this post - you can also MYO spiced, sweetened coffee. ☕️⠀
⠀
STEP 1: Brew your coffee with these new-new brewing spices from @simplyorganicfoods (found at @vitacost my fav store ever)⠀
⠀
STEP 2: Buy or make your own milk and heat.⠀
⠀
STEP 3: Add liquid sweetener (I'm loving date syrup lately) to warm milk until it tastes sweet enough for you.⠀
⠀
STEP 4: Make a ratio of coffee to milk in your mug (I like 50/50 unless it's cold brew concentrate, which I would use way less of). ⠀
⠀
Top with cinnamon and enjoy! If you have a batch of brewed coffee and a batch of milk, you can make these really easily any time, right?⠀

Today is my 35th birthday!⠀
⠀
(Yes, I am that old.)⠀also I imagine this is what I looked like👆🏻
⠀
In this time, I have turned my best friend into my life partner - exposing all of my crazy at the outset, and he still stuck around! 🤪I've had many careers, from ad agencies to liquor slinging to marketing Food Network magazine, to owning my OWN. I've had 2 babies, with one more on the way. I've mentored a sorority at Temple U for a decade (xo @tudeltazeta). I've met some amazing people and have been offered the most wild, engaging opportunities, and have built a mother-f-ing event that inspires and changes lives with my two girls Jen and @Kate.van.horn (dreams come true @thegoodfest). I plan on building many more things. I've somehow maintained a solid BFF relationship with @newagenesting through it ALL (love you!)⠀
⠀
Thank you all for being a part of this adventure. ⠀
⠀
Keep me young.⠀
⠀
Please?⠀
⠀
xoxo⠀

I just got this grooming oil for John from @brothersartisanoil and it smells like a fresh, minty, herbal spa experience. I've been so focused on my products over the last few years and JB is over here fending for himself. 🤷🏼‍♀️⠀
⠀
Anyway, this self-proclaimed apothecary creates skin and hair products for all genders...less floral, more woodsy and herbaceous, with only therapeutic grade essential oils (no "fragrance"). In fact, it's for John but I like the scent myself so I used some on my hair and hands.⠀🍃
⠀
For guys - this can be used on skin, beards or hair - to make everything soft and scentsy.⠀
⠀
Also, the packaging is dope. Check our their whole line (body washes, beard oils, and more) if you are still in need of some gifts! They are also avail on amazon which is key with prime shipping 👌🏻⠀

OMG they were so little here. ⠀
⠀
People always said "the days are long but the years fly by"⠀
⠀
Ain't that the truth.⠀
⠀
Is it crazy that I'm already worried about them as teenagers?! ⠀
⠀
I am. I hope they are nice.⠀
