Home. Life. Work. Ease.
Snapshot is a periodic series about what’s going on in my life right now—what I’m eating, reading, doing, loving, and my favorite links from around the web. Oh hi! I totally missed you. You know those times when life gets really messy and things that are normally really important (like writing blog posts) get put on the back burner because you suddenly discover something really, really important that you
As promised last week, here is a suggested ritual for deep relaxation and powerful embodiment. I like to do this in the bath. But feel free to do it anywhere you are comfortable. Laying on the floor, in bed before sleep or when you wake up…your body, your brain, your call. Start by closing your eyes and taking a few deep, lungs-filled breaths. Then start with thanks to your feet.
Sometimes is the simplest, most available tools at our disposal are the most powerful methods to rejuvenate our tired breath and bones. In a world that is utterly saturated with stimulus, doing less rather than more is often the answer. All you need is your very own bathtub. Preferably clean. Additional perks like fresh flowers, candles, essential oils, bath salts, music and/or your lunch tray delivered by sexy husband who
Snapshot is a periodic series about what’s going on in my life right now—what I’m eating, reading, doing, loving, and my favorite links from around the web. I had a life-changing caramelized onion, fennel and bleu cheese quiche at The Blue Heron in Winona recently. I went back for seconds later in the day, and it was gone. I’ve been obsessed with recreating it ever since. I just bought
I use swear words in my blog posts! I have gotten emails and messages from people (usually right before or after unsubscribing) who, for reasons of religion, propriety, professionalism or otherwise, relate that they cannot continue to read or condone a blog which uses the language that sometimes appears on my blog posts. I am writing this to explain that, while I hear you and I respect your opinion, I
Snapshot is a periodic series about what’s going on in my life right now—what I’m eating, reading, doing, loving, and my favorite links from around the web. Okay, you know those meal services where you get ingredients delivered to your house, and then you make the meals? Yeah, I’ve been trying a bunch of those…and I’m going to be sharing them with you on the blog next month! So far
I’m having trouble wrangling my brain into producing a blog post this morning (she doesn’t want to work today), but I very much want to say hello. So today, I’m doing something a little different: sharing one of my favorite poems. To be honest, I’m not a huge poetry fan. Most of the time it makes me feel stupid and uncultured for not immediately understanding the hidden meanings. (Is that
**Please note, this giveaway has ended.** This post is part of a blog series in which I review books I’ve read—and then give them away to one lucky reader when I’m finished! In part because I love to share the books I’ve loved myself; and in part because I sure don’t need to keep all the books I’ve read. If you’d like to recommend a book for me to review,
Snapshot is a periodic series about what’s going on in my life right now—what I’m eating, reading, doing, loving, and my favorite links from around the web. I’m not gonna lie, I’m still eating roasted Brussels sprouts. In case you missed last week’s post, go read it now. Then go buy a pound of Brussels sprouts, and send me an email gushing about how right I was about how easy
I have been on vacation for ten days. It has been amazing. In this time, I’ve been thinking all these profound thoughts I want to share with you. About new years, about visioning and goals, about relaxing resolutions, about where this ship called Rosy Blu is headed. And also, all those thoughts are still a jumble.
