There is a ton of work being piled on my plate right now, and my stress level is definitely creeping up there. I’m actually welcoming my over-booked weekend because I think all the people and activities will offer a nice distraction.

Apple picking is not much of a thing where I’m from. As you creep closer to North Georgia you may find corn fields and hay rides, but in the Lowcountry that stuff is a bit harder to come by and apples are not one of our major crops…which would make picking them nearly impossible for…

I’ve been taking it very very easy this week in preparation for my big 10K this weekend. I’m not nervous yet, but I’m sure I’ll be singing a different tune once it’s actually race time. Have you ever seen a green plum? Me neither. But they exist, and I found them at Trader Joe’s. And…

Football may be in full swing, but UGA actually had a bye for the second weekend of the season. With the extra time, I headed to Hoboken for a much needed night with my best gal, Steph. We may have had plans to tear up the town but instead ended up sitting on the couch,…
