A Mindful Migration

So Yeah. I’m Moving Back to … Minnesota

October 7, 2019 by Tanya // 16 Comments

I’ve known for some time but haven’t publicly talked about it on the blog for multiple reasons, mainly because I needed to accept that it was happening. It’s not a bad thing. Nor is it necessarily awesome. I mean it’s October. You know what’s coming. Winter. And unlike GoT, winter in Minnesota always kicks ass. And again, depending on your perspective, that’s a good thing or a really bad, bad thing.

3 Things: That I Like and Dislike

September 27, 2019 by Tanya // 14 Comments

Sorry I haven’t been around much. It’s been a mix of low blogging mojo, insomnia, allergies (and medication drowsiness that somehow makes my insomnia worse) and hunting fleas (thanks Max) and flies (thanks Fall). It sounds so very dramatic but it’s not. Well, it is in my mind but in the real world – it ain’t no thing at all. 😀 And it’s finally starting to get under control … sort of. So I’m back. Sort of. I have zero ideas of my own but my buddy, Rebecca Jo from Knit by God’s Hand, recently posted this so … you know. Feel free to grab this for your blog as I’d love to learn 3 more things that you like and dislike too!

August Bookshelf: The Whoa Month

September 9, 2019 by Tanya // 18 Comments

Whoa I read. Whoa I liked some books. “Whoa …”, said Joey Lawrence. And woe is me, if you don’t know why that’s hilarious. Cuz it is. Super, super hilarious. Or not. Seriously, who knows. My humor is weird but what I read last month wasn’t … that weird. I don’t think. Some self-help. A little murder. You know, the normal.

Coffee Talk: What’s New with Moi, Volume 9

August 19, 2019 by Tanya // 11 Comments

My blogging has once again been somewhat erratic. It’s not intentional but sometimes blogging simply falls to the wayside. Also sometimes I feel like if I did blog I WOULD WRITE EVERYTHING IN CAPS AND BE SCREAMING CONSTANTLY at you, which I do not want to do. You’re welcome.

July Bookshelf: My Birthday Reads

August 12, 2019 by Tanya // 46 Comments

July is my birthday month and I’m sad to see it gone, although I ate everything and it shows. Maybe I took that indulgence thing a little too far, but it’s my birthday and apparently I’ll eat if I wanna … and boy, did I ever. Weirdly and somewhat unfortunately, I read a lot less than I ate and probably should have done the opposite, which is why hindsight is 20/20.

Five Cheese Ziti al Forno

I am a carb lover. PERIOD. My love affair with carbs began … as soon as I started eating solid food? 😀 It’s delicious and addictive. And it was my chosen birthday meal this year in large part because pasta will become an occasional meal as part of my get healthy plan. It won’t be eliminated but more of a special occasion treat – like my b-day!
