Do You Believe In Christmas Miracles?
“This is the season for miracles.” I always believed miracles can happen around Christmas. But, I use to think the statement; “this is the season for miracles” was more of a holiday cliché. Until 1 year, I received a Christmas miracle…. Unfortunately, I got laid off from my job and had to pay cobra. Even […]

Tis the Season: Festival of Trees
It’s that time of the year. And, I love it and couldn’t be happier. Last night, I brought the Christmas tree (there’s nothing like the smell of fresh pine throughout the house). Every year, my mom set up a special theme for the tree. She uses different color combinations like red and gold, green and […]

Gratitude Challenge – Thankful For My Car
Today I am thankful for my car. I know it sounds a bit materialistic, but I truly love it (and that’s an understatement!) I have always loved cars since I was a little girl. I’ve had a dream car since I can remember. My love of cars started early because my father used to […]
NYC Holiday Events: Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade
I’m dropping another thing into your bucket. Of course, I mean your travel and adventure bucket list. I know its customary for you to visit relatives, eat turkey and watch football on Thanksgiving Day. It is for me too. Matter of fact, I’m going to be eating and watching football with 50+ family members (with […]
Are You Giving Back This Thanksgiving?
I have a confession to make. Every year, I always donate food and/or give money to the Thanksgiving food drive. However, this year for some reason, I completely got caught up in my own agenda that I didn’t do what I intended to do. You see, every year at my church we have Harvest Sunday, […]
