They said the snow would start at 7am today. First they said we'd receive 10 cm, then they changed it to 20cm. I made tea, raked up our last haul of leaves, and sat by the fireplace and watched the 40 foot birch in our front yard. Sometimes I feel like she and I have a lot in common. Although she has already released most of her leaves, prepping for her winter hibernation, she has this huge branch that is clinging to every last ochre leaf as if to say "I'm not quite ready yet". Goodness, I...

We are about to get our first taste of winter weather here tomorrow, so I am digging out our ski pants, mittens and scarves, but mostly it is making me think about the holidays. I absolutely love taking the time to get everyone that is near and dear to my heart something special, and guess what - you are one of those people. But who can wait until the end of the year - not me! So I wanted to send you a little holiday cheer this morning as we await our first snowflakes of the season and send...

When we lived back in California, I worked for a while in the neuroscience department at UC San Diego studying the science of wisdom. One day the professor running the department asked me if I wanted to join him at the healthy aging event the team was putting on that night. Man, if you want to study wisdom hanging out at events with a couple hundred seniors is your jam, so I was all in. The topic that night was chocolate and its scientific link to laughter and happiness. Hummmm . . . I'm...

For nearly a decade I considered myself the happiest coffee addict around. I loved everything about coffee . . . the process of selecting the beans, my morning routine grinding and brewing a perfect cup to perfection, the science and history of all things java, the unmistakeable taste, the heavenly smell, the everything really. Actually, scrap that. I didn't love everything, and you coffee lovers out there probably know what I am talking about . . . "those" mornings! Those mornings when you...

The summer of 2013 was setting up to be a bummer for me. My hubby had a work conference he was heading off to in Paris for a week. I had never been to Europe nevermind Paris, so I would spend my days and nights searching up little cafes I insisted he visit, or parks and museums he had to send me pictures from. "I'm there for work. I'll be super busy. I won't have time to do any of that. Plus, I don't want ot do any of those things without the two of you". Our daughter was one at the time, so...
