So a couple of days ago I bought a bottle of good Portuguese wine since I will be going to a conference in Portugal soon and need to figure out beforehand how the wine situation is. The person at the register asked me for my ID. Did I get annoyed? Why would I? My question…

What’s for Supper?
I cleaned my kitchen cabinets this morning to just get an overview on what I have hoarded. The fridge, freezers and storage cabinets are full with stuff and I still end up going to the store to buy more. Well, I actually realized that I don’t need to buy food at all for weeks. Seriously,…
Real Money Talk.
Petit Joel and I just needed new toothbrushes and almond milk. Just two effing bamboo toothbrushes and almond milk from Whole Foods.That’s it. I am a minimalist. Nothing more, nothing less. The problem is, this store is just awesome since it has it all. Natural alternatives, organic food, a huge variety of cheese and fish…
Yoga Stories.
I have lost some weight (yay!) because of my new eating habits and thought about starting running again more often or taking some Yoga classes to get back in shape. I enjoy running a lot but Yoga helps me to relax more. I searched for Yoga classes in my neighborhood but haven’t found anything I…
Food Changes.
I love to eat. Food, food, food. Since my gallbladder issue, I have been in a food transition to a mix of raw/vegan/vegetarian mostly. I haven’t had an attack for three weeks so I reckon I do something right. Overall, I feel great and I even enjoyed some of the food we prepared for Christmas…

Stress Is Bad – My Academic and Overall Stress-Prevention 101.
It has been pretty quiet on my blog these days. From writing daily to writing once or maybe twice a week is a pretty drastic change for me, too. This year was somewhat crazy. A lot of changes and adjustments but there has been one thing I have spent a lot on. Making sure that…
Artistic Intercourse and Self-Care.
Fence Post Shadows – by Judith Lockett Ottawa is a breathing, living city where inspiration seems to be around every corner. I think it is just a center for culture and art and even wandering the streets in my neighborhood is one of the most rewarding experiences. The unexpected discoveries are the best, in my…
Me Working Out at the Gym.
I received a message today from a friend who is so happy because she purchased an at-home exerciser. Wow, congratulations – this is a great start of self-improvement. But finding a free workout video on Youtube is even better. Or running in the park/nature. It all sounds awesome. Give yourself a pat on the back….
