This dog was black as a puppy. We named her Pepper. She turns whiter everyday. Now every time someone remarks on her color change, I fire off a song from the Salt-N-Pepa playlist. Tonight’s was It’s A She Thing.

This indoor flower garden from Trader Joe’s was absolutely my best impulse purchase this holiday season. I have gotten such delight from watching the bulbs sprout and grow and now bloom.

I want to get a new family board game. We like strategy games like Catan. Throw me some suggestions and tell me why you like it.

Bought this book based off Adam Grant’s recommended new books. It is now a favorite. What set this book apart for me was how it starts by asking you to think like the reader, not the writer. There is a lot of crossover application with UX/UI, brand experience and other disciplines.

I just wrapped two intense client engagements. Over the past couple of weeks I realized how much I have neglected my personal life in the past year. I am in the guilt phase (of not working 24/7) coming off workaholic mode. Focusing that into neglected errands, home projects, car tlc, checkups-next up friend deficits!

Cleaned out the map pocket in my car door today. Found a little treasure trove of reminders for some of the hikes over the past couple of years.

This time of day is referred to as disco hour in my house. The sun comes through the window at just the right angle to hit a sequined pillow which pretends it's a disco ball for about an hour.

I love travel, but sleeping in my own bed is something I always miss. Most everything else that matters can be replicated while traveling. Maybe that's precisely what makes it so much better.

Listened to recent HBR Ideacast with Microsoft Head of Strategy Chris Young. He said they were “tracking 80 AI companies last fall, and this year, they are tracking 8000. “ 😳 Microsoft is tracking anything & everything in a key category. Down to tiny new startups. Predict more early acquisitions to come.

Came back from the beach famished and close to hangry. So I toasted a bagel and added cream cheese and gravlax to it while I cooked a fresh vegetable plate of squash & zucchini, sautéed sweet potato and corn on the cob. It sounds like a horrible mashup but was actually quite tasty.

One of my favorite times at the beach is the moment just before sunset. No matter the weather it always looks like a painting.

I don’t understand mayo in lobster rolls. Lobster Roll - lobster, butter, toasted bun - squirt of lemon only acceptable addition. My husband likes the lettuce, while it doesn’t offend me, I find it just makes it harder to eat as a sandwich.

“Choosing a career isn’t like finding a soul mate. It’s possible that your ideal job hasn’t even been invented yet. Old industries are changing, and new industries are emerging faster than ever before…Your future self doesn’t exist right now either, and your interest might change over time.” Adam Grant
