Every person serves a purpose...

Not long ago a dear girlfriend of mine said that people would enter my life and serve a purpose in the moments of need. I have to say that I'm a firm believer in her wisdom.  As all my close friends know, it wasn't long ago when I felt my world collapse right in front of me.  I had a very heavy heart, and was pretty sure that it would never feel complete, let alone full again. Well, there was the perfect person that entered my life at the perfect moment, and ended up guiding me in the direction of how to love and trust again.

There is a definite silver lining to all things in life.  It's how we chose to see them, if at all, that makes the difference.  It can be very easy to go down the path of feeling sorry for yourself, or becoming sad when events that happen in your life don't turn out as planned.  However, making the decision to rise above it and learn something from them is what can make for the better ending.  While I had hoped things with this wonderful man who was lucky enough to capture my heart, would've turned out differently, I was so fortunate to have had such a wonderful time, and amazing memories with him.  The caring will never stop, and hopefully the friendship will continue on its journey.  The silver lining was the fact that I was able to keep him as a friend.  I'm so grateful for his honesty, his openness, and his ability to allow me to see the better side of things.

I wonder what will come next! :)

Not a Cloud in the Sky

Sunshine is finally here!! It has been 70 and sunny in the bay area over the past week, and the northern Californians are breaking out the sun dresses and sandals; along with their light jackets of course. This weekend James and I had the pleasure to watch our friends pooch, Stella. As usual she was amazing and couldn't wait for the walks during these beautiful days. We walked for blocks admiring the city that brought us much love, great food, and fabulous friends. New restaurants have opened up that look amazing. One in which I visited recently, and the name; SPQR, is just one of the out there attributes that defines it. The food was so good in fact that I ate two en tree's. Now if that's not tasty, then I'm not quite sure what would be. There are new eclectic boutiques that I will definitely be hitting up for new obsessions I'm thriving for. Let's be honest though, every store here has a style you can't pass up. I am so, so, so, happy and thrilled to call...

Great Deals

Just like anyone else out there, getting a good deal on clothes, electronics, or travel is always a plus.  Especially with the economy being how it is today.  On my walk with my friend Susan yesterday, she told me about a website that can give you promotional codes for pretty much anything you might be shopping for.   Typically when you want to get a great deal on something you have to sign up and give your personal information.  By the end of the process your mailbox is fluttering with junk mail just because you were trying to save a few bucks.  Well, there is finally a website that just lets you click on the item you may want, and up pops your promotion code.  All you have to do is go the the website of your product and type in the code.  It's as easy as 1,2,3.   Here is the website:  www.promotioncodes.com Enjoy!!

Roasted Vegetable Pizza

Image
This pizza is a delicious option for a healthy dinner. It literally takes less than 30 minutes to make, and when you're either working, in school, or a homemaker; time is somewhat important. Like a lot of people out there, pizza is very treasured dish. I can't get enough of it, and could probably eat a different recipe every night, however, my wardrobe probably would disagree with me after a week of it. I decided one night to use left over roasted veggies from the night before as my main toppings for this pizza recipe. I think it turned out fabulous, and hopefully you'll agree after you've tried it. Ingredients: Roasted Veggies 1 Small Zucchini 1 Small Yellow Squash 1 Small Red Onion 3 Minced Cloves of Garlic Ingredients: Pizza Roasted Veggies 1 Cornmeal Pizza Crust 1/2 Jar of Marinara 1/2 Cup Grated Italian Cheese Blend Directions: Preheat oven to 375 Degrees. Throw all vegetables in a medium skillet with a little olive oil, so they won't stick to the pan. Sa...
