Photo by Olga Kravchuk on Unsplash Dear Diary, Like any little girl, I've had this enormous passion for horses as a child. I drew notebooks after notebooks of horses, cowboys and ranch stories...

Dear Diary, On my way home, I saw the word "VEGAN" scrawled on a traffic pole. 😂 I thought this was very funny, considering that I considered herbivores to be rather gentle by nature. Aside from a few friends I know who associate their choice to be vegan to a social and political fight to … Continue reading The Luxury of Eating What You Want.

McDonalds lingered in my brain ever since my hubby made mention of it a few days ago, so I decided... why not. … Continue reading Late Lunch chez McDonald’s
Dear Diary, It's been a long while since I've written anything (funny or not) and now I am dusting off my pen to continue feeding stories and thoughts here. I wish I could say there were many great stories that I had written in the meantime but alas, there hasn't. At least, not funny ones. … Continue reading I’m back.
