The Tale of the Kite
Will was so excited to fly his new kite last summer. It was special — a sturdy, large fabric kite that would soar high. He waited and waited for the wind to be just right. Then, one day it was so he took the kite to the beach for its first flight. Once he had [...]
Review: The Paradise Guest House by Ellen Sussman
Before we jump into this review, I have a little confession. I didn’t love Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. In fact, while I really enjoyed the Eat section, the Pray section wore me out and I never made it far into the Love section. I tried to read the book on several occasions — [...]
How to Be a Curly Haired Girl
This probably won’t come as a shock to anyone who has ever gone to the beach with me. Or the pool. Or seen my hair after a bit of rain touched it. But I have wavy-curly hair. However, if you have ever seen me beyond the confines of water-related places, maybe you don’t know. Lord [...]
Can You Learn To Be Organized?
When it comes to my work, I am a master of organization. My prop cabinet has shelves organized by prop type (linen, bowl, accessories, etc). My computer files are divided into folders by type and client. I have spreadsheets for tracking everything from social media stats to income. They are up-to-date, and constantly monitored, to [...]

Fun at the Library
I discovered the library one summer when I was a little girl. My voracious appetite for reading had grown so much that buying books just didn’t make sense. I read them too quickly and then craved more instantly (a good problem to have, as Cate says). So, my grandmother began taking me to the library [...]

The Best of Us by Sarah Pekkanen Review
Two weeks ago, the kids and I had our first beach picnic of the year. It felt great to dig my toes into the sand and listen to the whoosh of the waves. And tomorrow? We’re supposed to get our first 70+ degree day of the year. Do you know what all this adds up [...]
A Letter to My Shadow
It’s surprisingly easy to look in the mirror and see what you want to see. Or not really see at all. And because of that, it’s easy to ignore how putting on weight pushes you farther and farther away from the self you recognize. But shadows? Shadows don’t lie. They are just dark on light. [...]
