Last night I had the rare opportunity to tag along on a business dinner. It wasn't for my business... I was just a bystander.

Kale Chips and Sales Tips
I'll admit it. It's pretty random that I have a blog that is so fluffy and light and beautiful and touches such amazing things like photography, flowers, yoga, and organic food.
