(Disclosure: this post was made in partnership with Behr Paint – thank you the reader and my friends at Behr Paint for making this all possible!) The year was 2020… we made the most of entertaining ourselves every single day from the comforts (or confines) of our homes… and what came out of...
We all know there is little else I find better than living (and loving, and loathing) in the city of LA. While I love exploring the globe I love coming home to California and the City of Angels the most. Facts are facts, the West Coast is simply the “Best Coast”. I moved to...
LOVE & LOATHING… LAS VEGAS. Fact: I have traveled to Vegas more times than any other city – and I love it way more than I loathe it. I remember my first trip to Sin City like it was yesterday (don’t we all)… rolled into town all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, got drunk off...

So you didn’t get shredded and/or your pants are tight after 2020. *opens arms wide for a big hug * Join the club! But you know what you did do? You took care of yourself as best you could and you made it THROUGH. Hell, you’re still making it through so bra.vo. As we inch...
