When Meg invited me to answer the following question in a blogger round-up today for The Well, it was a no brainer.
The question:
What did you purchase in the past year that became invaluable to you?
My answer:
My slow cooker, hands down. How I ever lived without one for almost 30 years, I'll never know.
Moving to the suburbs has had many pros and cons. One of many welcome changes was getting more closet space. Somehow I got my husband to agree to letting me have the walk-in closet to myself (Another post on the power of persuasion might be in order!).
I have a lot of clothing, shoes, and accessories, so it's important to stay organized.
As a blogger, I get a lot of emails from friends, friends of friends, people I've just met, and family members asking me to promote things for them on my blog or Instagram.
A few days ago, my friend Hallie emailed around an article from the New York Times called "How to fall in love with anyone". Um obviously that sounded pretty exciting.
She summed up the article perfectly on her blog: "It explores the idea of mutual vulnerability and how that fosters feelings of closeness. Or more specifically, whether intimacy between a set of strangers can be created and accelerated by having them ask each other a series of personal questions — 36 of them, to be exact."
I've obviously already fallen in love but the idea of going through this process with my husband intrigued me.
Earlier this week I was complaining about Polar Vortex 2.0 and counting down the days until March when I'm heading to Tulum. I'm still counting. 49 days.
Being my crazy self, I've already made preliminary my wish list for the trip!
