By: Gabriela Yareliz One word: Exams. Whole Foods had gluten-free pop tarts as buy-one-get-one-free. It also had a sale on Coconut Milk “Nog.” There is true joy in Manhattan. I also managed to trek in 20-something-degree weather (for my readers outside of the U.S., about -6 C?) for kale. Kale. Kale juice. Kale in allContinue reading “Exam Madness Inspiration”

Sabbath Reading: Malcolm Muggeridge
I read this today, and I loved it. Malcolm Muggeridge was a journalist (he interviewed Coco Chanel for crying out loud!), satirist, and spy (during WWII). “I may, I suppose, regard myself as a relatively successful man. People occasionally stare at me in the streets: that’s fame. I can fairly easily earn enough to qualify forContinue reading “Sabbath Reading: Malcolm Muggeridge”
Friday Motivation and Glee: December 5, 2014

This Month’s Picks: November 2014

I was pressing some little purple flowers in a book, and I thought, it’s funny how something so temporary, like a flower, can have its beauty preserved, even after it’s lifeless. I once had a discussion with a friend who said there wasContinue reading “This Month’s Picks: November 2014”

A Wednesday Unlike Any Other
