Essays and insights about the joie de vivre–food, travel, running, the writer's life and laughing at life's little absurdities … because, well, it's cheaper than therapy.

Yay! So excited by what arrived today 💗💗 @_alicavanaugh_ #portrait #watercolor #supportart

So I did three things for the first time today: holiday lunch in the AT&T Stadium suites and I gave blood for the first time. Oh and I had an adverse vasovagal reaction for the first time, which was very unpleasant and caused me to miss the stadium tour. But at least I got these cool socks. I think Friday is officially a wrap. #holidayparty #donateblood #socks

Never has this felt more true as it does right now. This year would have been a much bumpier ride without the acts of kindness of true friends. Thank you #ProjectHappiness for the reminder to “pay attention to the supporters of your life, instead of those who drag you down.” And thank you to each one of you who has been a true friend to me. I hope I can do the same.

This may be the funniest and most awesome weight loss “tip” I have ever received. #loseit #holidayeating #weightloss #eatmorecake @loseitapp
