YAY! First post of 2016! Lucky for all of us it’s a healthy-ish one. After completely destroying my stomach during the holidays with the consumption of dairy (in vast quantities), I decided I gotta give my gut a break…for a week or so at least! Don’t worry, I’m not trying any of the “new me […]

Ooh la la! That time of the year when “the best of” lists start popping around has come, friends! 2016 is here! (well, almost here) and holy shit did time go flying. I must say this year was one for the books in terms of work and overall life lessons, and happy to say they […]
