Recently, I had the opportunity to join my husband on his business trip to Paris. While my husband set off to work, I decided to venture out and visit a cafe nearby. Everything in the vicinity was tourist-friendly and I felt comfortable. The next day, I decided to visit a cafe farther away because they […]
Last week, I met a friend for lunch. We ordered our food and sat down to catch up. She’s one of these friends where we just pick right up where we left off, no matter how long time has passed by. Life usually only lets us see each other every few months, so we jumped […]
My kids have been back at school for 2 weeks now. The weeks before are always filled with anticipation- and dread. They eagerly await the email that says who their teacher will be for the year. This year, my son started middle school, so he had a full on schedule with 8 periods and their […]
