Photos & feelings.
Welcome to my 3rd (4th?) annual Pumpkin Challenge! You are invited to join me in the documentation of a challenge that I have taken on since it was proposed to me by a friend many moons ago – the Pumpkin Challenge. For the month of October, I will endeavour to consume one item that contains…
Through the beginning of my blogging journey, I have enjoyed documenting a variety of topics: My trips, the restaurants I’ve visited, events I’ve attended, and personal goals and planning (with ideas for others included).I am passionate about my photography and my fitness and my food adventures, and I want those to all be aspects of…
It has been a turbulent few weeks for me as the school year has begun to gain momentum. I’ve struggled with adjusting to my new roles, likely as a result of the requirements laid out by some commitments that required completion within one or two weeks of the year kicking off. While I know that…

Summer time BBQs of veggiedogs and tofu kabobs! Mischievous kittens. Birthday sushi fun…
