“What do I need to buy for my baby?” “What brands do you recommend?” “What could you live without and what are you glad you had?” These are the questions I often get from new mommies and daddies who are entering the world of parenthood. After reading a blog from a fellow twitterer, I finally […]
[continue]She walks in Beauty
November 18, 2007 By 1
I absolutely love British literature, and I wanted to share a wonderful poem that I came across by Lord Byron titled, “She walks in Beauty.” SHE walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that’s best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes: Thus mellow’d […]

William Blake states my daily routine so eloquently. I love mornings! It is truly the only time of the day when I can hear my thoughts.
