One of my goals for 2013 – and, more specifically, for when I moved to Arizona – was to start an in-person book club. In my opinion, chatting about books is the perfect way to get to know someone. You have an instant ice breaker, and you also get to learn something about that person […]

Sam Says Yes To The Dress
Hello and happy Tuesday! I’m back in Arizona after a wonderful whirlwind weekend in New York and New Jersey. It was packed with beautiful views, not only of the city skyline but also of my best friend looking the part of perfection in a series of potential wedding dresses.
