<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB” lang=”EN-GB”> While I’m not personally with child, nor have I adopted one of my own, most of the people close to me have expanded their families by way of baby. It’s made me realize one thing for sure: through the 2 a.m. feedings and the fact that breast pumps look like they […]

Needle points
Who cares if you can list 10 bands named for odd animals and random fruit? I sure don’t. The point is, it’s imperative you let your musical tastes reflect what makes you happy, the stuff that makes you hum along or tap your toe.

Have an inkling
Once you decide on the reflection of your personal tastes and how you want to brand yourself, it’s time to embark on the journey of putting it all together, whether that’s specific clothing, a hairstyle, accessories or using your body as an artistic canvas.

Top it off
I’m OK at partying, even if it does require me to be outdoors. My idea of nature is a covered patio with a mimosa no more than arm’s length away. Alas, my notion of living year-round in an allergy-free, moderately temperate bubble is quickly dashed when I consider the palpable loneliness I’d feel without my […]

Alcohol: A to Z in OKC

Pet project
Bailey, the aforementioned weenie dog, is an excellent napper. She’s good at disappearing into heaps of blankets and laundry. Above all, however, this lady is good at creating mischief when I’m not at home. Maybe you’re currently pet-parenting your own seemingly angelic pup. If you frequently return to overturned trash cans and chew toys that […]

The heat is on
Heat isn’t my thing. If I could fast-forward through summer, I would. The thought of that palpitating and near-delirious stretch of 100-plus-degree weather never gets any less uncomfortable for me. But the thought of working out in a sauna-type environment slowly began to appeal to me the further I got in my personal journey through […]

‘Immortal’ engagement
One of my memories that is most dear includes the blasting of “Bad” and dancing around the kitchen while baking cookies with my mother. While I’m aware that everyone has their own opinions on the King of Pop, I always have been and always will be a fan. So when I heard about Cirque du […]
