I’m the type of person that both loves and hates surprises. I’ll say yes to surprise cake or a surprise purse but not so much to a surprise bill. I loathe surprise bills. They’re like a Jack in the Box you’re not sure if it’s coming, you think it will, but you’re terrified the entire …

Pan de Maíz Puerto Rican Corn Bread
Pan de Maíz is one of my father’s favorite deserts ever. He knows where to find the best ones back home. If I ever crave it, I just let him know and he’ll hook me right up. This delicious cake is similar to a cornbread but it’s also seen as a dessert. This recipe …
Did You Know? – Learning to Let Go
I’ve been doing a lot of packing and unpacking lately. As I packed, I considered what I would keep and what I would not. This entire process makes you aware of all the stuff you own. Not everything I had was valuable. I ended up gifting some of my clothes to friends while other objects …

Did You Know? Treat Yo'self!
Today was Damian’s and I treat day. We don’t tend to have many but every couple of weeks we throw caution to the wind and unwind, we go someplace nice, and maybe splurge on a few bits. We aren’t huge spendthrifts so everything we purchase we’ll use but sometimes we buy something a little special.
Did You Know? Choose Happiness
I was reading this article about what not to say to people. It was an article riddled with paranoia and mistrust. Its tone overall was entirely negative. It was unpleasant to read, to say the least. I’m not a fan of articles that base themselves off negative feelings especially those who are meant to …
Did You Know? Saying No
As I grow older, I’ve noticed that I have a hard time saying “No”. On the rare occasions I do say “no” I am overcome by an absurd amount of guilt. It doesn’t matter if the request was absurd or if I just absolutely couldn’t manage to help an individual at that moment, I …
Did You Know? Kindness
Lately, I’ve been thinking about kindness and what being kind entails. I’ve heard a lot of people use the word. I’ve seen examples of kindness. I’ve been called kind yet I don’t fully understand what it means when people call me kind. What does it take to have that quality?
Fantasy Life: I'm Done With the Real World
Fantasy Life is practically everything I’ve ever wanted in a role-playing game. Okay, maybe not everything but it’s pretty darn close. This title was released to the US on September 2014 for the Nintendo 3DS and yes, I’m a little late to the party but whatevs. It’s an incredible little game that was developed by Level-5, who …
