My path crossed with a beautiful Buddhist this past spring. By June, he’d invited Opie and me to spend July at his summerhouse, a place as wild and beautiful as him. I felt like I’d entered the nature version of Willy Wonka’s chocolate room the first time he welcomed me into his secluded paradise. Butterflies,… Continue Reading
SmartBuyGlasses Review
Almost a year ago, I wrote a SmartBuyGlasses review, which turned out to be one of my most popular blog posts. I don’t write many reviews, but when SmartBuyGlasses contacted me a few weeks ago to offer me yet another pair of designer sunglasses in exchange for a SmartBuyGlasses review, of course I said, “yes, please!” Who… Continue Reading

I’m of two minds about the Denmark divorce process. On one hand, it’s extremely straightforward, quick, and affordable. On the other hand, I think it’s a little… Continue Reading
Thrift Store Score: A Vintage Pocketbook
This was supposed to be a blog post about the divorce process in Denmark.
