Different. Unique. Me. You.
Happy last Sunday in March for 2020! By now, you have probably been in self-quarantine for a few days or so. Isn’t it amazing how we take things like going to the movies or eating in a restaurant for granted? The news and social media are keeping us up to date on the negatives of …
Well technically there are three sides: 1) POV from person 1, 2) POV from person 2 and 3) the truth! The truth is usually ascertained by whoever is listening to these two stories. The story of coronavirus also follows suit. Story #1 Coronavirus, according to Britannica is “any virus belonging to the family Coronaviridae”. These …
“While these changes are immediate, the situation is fluid.” “Wishing you the best in this time of uncertainty.” “Fluid” and “uncertainty” are two words that have definitely seen an exponential increase in usage over the last few days!

My February has been packed and I literally have been …

This past Friday, I was in a “baking mood” and gave making cupcakes another go. My previous attempt was lackluster at best, so I was out for redemption. The final result was much better this time and I almost nailed the buttercream frosting. When butter and powdered sugar is overmixed, the butter begins to congeal …
Somebody’s watching you…in a good way 😉 This week I was reminded of event that happened a few years ago (I can’t remember if I wrote about it on AD or not). I arrived back at my dorm room and noticed that someone had left my lipstick in the door’s caddy. Apparently, I had dropped …
