sharing tamales ~
i lived in santa fe, new mexico until i was in 4th grade ~ it wasn’t so much a city to me, but an expression ~ an expression of color, cultures, cooking, an expression of sharing all of this with those who were around you ~ my first taste of tamales was in santa fe….
words to live by ~
if someone could describe you in a word, what would it be? what if someone remembered you by something you said? what comes out of your mouth can travel a long way, and fortunately (or unfortunately, in some cases) can cause profound changes in how you are viewed. “where is she going?”, you might ask…

life as we know it
today, I am writing a different sort of post ~ one that I will dedicate to my husband and all the other HARD working military members ~ you know who you are ~ you got up and out the door by 5am ~ after getting home at 9pm the night before, with no lunch break, no…
