Thoughts, inspiration, balance… and randomness
I am officially one week away from the big 3-5. Every year, I think about what I've accomplished since the previous year. Have I done the 35 things I wanted to do by the time I turned 35? Well, I have one week to do it. 35x35 List 1. Find soulmate 2. Get married to … Continue reading 35×35

Japanese Gardens. Chinese Dim Sum restaurants. Some office buildings. Maybe your house. All places where one may find a beautiful (and endlessly hungry) koi population. According to http://www.koi-pond-guide.com, koi fish symbolize good luck, abundance and perseverance. In Buddhism, they represent courage. Today, koi are considered to be symbolic of advancement materially and spiritually. I think … Continue reading Koil Painting
Ha ha... I totally tricked you into thinking there is a yoga pose called Pastasana. It would probably be in the same asana family as carbohydrasana... because this post is all about PASTA. About ten years ago, I became very interested in fresh pasta. I was living in Seattle, and a little shop popped up … Continue reading Pastasana
I know, it's a stretch. But I wanted to talk about two things today: Heron Pose (Krounchasana) and Drinking Water. If you are from LA (or not from LA, but come to visit) you probably will notice the LA water. Being a Seattle native, I can say, it's not the best water. Most people I … Continue reading Heron Brockovich

I thought the article was fascinating, interesting and something that questioned my own self-awareness. A new book, The Secret Life of Pronouns by James … Continue reading Me, Myself and I (and You?)
I'm just imagining these songs would be good for crafting. I don't actually craft. Although, I should probably look into it. However, you could use this playlist for jewelry-making, bathroom cleaning, or maybe just chillin and grabbing some sun-time in the backyard. Many of the songs I find to listen to come from Jason Bentley, … Continue reading 14 Songs to Listen to While Crafting
JOG I actually hate running. I can't get into it. I always say to people who run Marathons, "wow, that is amazing, good for you! What an accomplishment!" And secretly I am thinking, "what kind of tortuous life do you live in where running is enjoyable?" I think running is reserved for Red Rover, getting … Continue reading Jog Dog Log Blog!
