I Love being a Delawarean. My state’s a small wonder. It’s home to beautiful beaches, tax-free shopping, and deliciously awesome communities. Most beloved, The Amish.

This picture is of my dog Star (left) and my Mom’s beloved Bebe (right) having a little puppy party just because I’d walked into the room. It’s good to be acknowledged for doing very little.

I’ve totally nailed weight maintenance! Oh, I’m supposed to hit goal weight before I start maintenance? Po-ta-to, Po-tah-to. I’ll get there. I know, you’re asking, “When?” Soon. I have newfound inspiration: the bikini. I have a girls’ getaway to one of Delaware’s finest beaches in 3 weeks. Weather’s been extreme already this Spring, so I want to […]
