About Me:

Twenty-seven, managing editor of a handful of craft magazines. Nothing makes me happier than craft beer, trips to the library, crafting, doodling, cooking (and eating), or singing along to ridiculous 80s soft rock.

I'm passionate about life, and the past year has been a year filled with finding myself, my true interests and pursuing my dreams. My quick-witted, adorable, boyfriend (who I live with) is my number-one fan and puts up with all the craft supplies I hoard and the self-empowerment books I read.

My blog is centered around my life, which is truly becoming a life I'm proud of. Cooking ... crafting ... photography (albeit crappy photos) ... words of inspiration and hope ... it's all found there.

All in all, I'm a pretty nice person.

We should be friends (I'd be friends with me if I didn't know me).

What makes you different from other bloggers?

I absolutely love life and all that it entails ... the good ... the bad ... the ugly. I try to be a source of positivity to people who may need it. I try to make people feel like they're not alone. I try. All the time.
