*exhales* It’s finally Fall. Now, Fall never used to be my favorite time of year. I used to affiliate it with the looming depression that was to come with winter up until I started taking vitamin D like every day. Now I associate it with my favorite flannel shirt, soup, and trying to figure out…
Do you believe in just one soulmate? I don’t. At least, I don’t think there is just one person out there for everyone. Instead, I believe there are hundreds of people out there in the world that you’re meant to know at different points of your life for whatever reason that may be. They’re not…
See, despite the feeling of trying to make way in the middle of a rainy wood, feeling utter defeat, I know there’s always sunlight over me. I know that it gets better. I have said to myself, “but I am SO sick of telling myself that it’s going to get better.” Okay, so then what, girl?
This year felt like four different years. I felt like we truly lived in 2021 in quarters or in seasons at time. Each one bringing some unique kind of chapter or story to it. Some kind of new wave or page of live being unfolded before us. What an adventure. I say that with joy,…

This may be only my second travel guide, but I have been to Galena, Illinois more times than I could count! It all started way before my mom even graduated high school. My grandparents purchased a home in The Galena Territory (home to Eagle Ridge Resort & Spa), and the rest is history. Well, history…
Since becoming a realtor over the last year, the number one question I am asked is why I decided to become a realtor. I will have to say that 99% of the time people are truly interested and I give my best answer. And I am going to share that with you. You see, I…
My family has a special relationship with caprese salad. We say it in all types of ways, but “CAH-PRAY-ZEE,” is probably the most popular way we say it amongst my “CAH-RAY-ZEE” family. My brother, Michael, though has taken it to a new level. One word: BURRATA. My brother is a champ in the kitchen and…
Oh, this year. What a year. There are good years, but are there bad years? Sure, depending on how you look at it. I won’t call this a bad year. You know why? It pushed me harder than I thought I could be pushed. It stretched muscles that I didn’t even know I had. I’ve dealt with anything…
