Welcome to my new home on the internet! I hope you like what we’ve done with the place.

When I started blogging eight years ago I was not a girl, not yet a woman and Peppermint Bliss was my time, the moment that was mine, while I was in between. I am so grateful for all of the good things my little blog with the silly name brought to my life, but I wanted a fresh start as I venture out on the other side of 30.

I have for you, on this first day of 2017, a month by month shmampling of the highlights from a year full of high-highs and low-lows. As I dip my toe into this new year with a robust level of anxiety, I want my dot com to be a place to share delights. Consider this life through the gaze of the Snapchat flower crown filter. Pat Altschul’s casual kaftan. The 3rd hour of The Today Show.

I’ll be there for you, in my own special way, and I thank you for being here for me lo these many years.

And big BIG thank you to Hanna for my slexy, high-functioning new site! I hope y’all enjoy all of the special features she cooked up for us.
