Showing Yourself Self-Love

A Rainy London Romance

 

“The days are long, but the years are short.” – Gretchen Rubin

It’s easy to keep going and going until you break or you lose track of time. I hear so many people saying, “I can’t believe it’s almost __(fill in the month),” and I usually want to ask them “Why Not?” but I refrain from doing so.

Every day we spend on earth should be filled with magic and love. And I’m working so very hard to apply this on a daily basis. When was the last time you stopped and breathed?

I feel faint afterwards, and it’s because I don’t take the time to breathe very deeply daily.

Iowa Girl Eats Amazingly

Thursday, March 1st, 2012

This week we spoke to Kristin of Iowa Girl Eats. She loves to cook, exercise, and travel, so she’s my type of gal :o). Her site is full of scrumptious recipes and absolutely beautiful pictures that explain how to go from A to Z and make Peanut Butter Cup Cookies or Green Monster Spinach Smoothies (something that I will try next week!)

I hope you’re inspired by Kristin to do some home cooking, as she makes it look glorious, easy, and deliciously YUMMY.  

GirlHabits: Do you think you’ll ever stop traveling?

Kristin: Never! There are far more places in the world to see and discover than I have time for. I’ll never stop exploring!

GH: What can’t you live without? What do you wish there was less of in the world?
