Today's Bucket List

I pride myself on the fact that, despite my utterly frivolous ambitions, I do not have one magic gold plated and laminated bucket list. It is a list which grows and flourishes and even ebbs occasionally, when life and feelings change. Here is today's list:

1. Get my equine therapy certification.
2. Own a mobile business (food truck, art truck, music truck, what have you).
3. Write and publish a children's book.
4. Learn the guitar and write a song.
5. Pursue this mixed media art installation I've been tossing around in my head awhile.
6. Live in New York.
7. Re-discover my Spanish skills.
8. Create a night of art, food and music to give me and my girlfriends an excuse to wear/buy a cocktail dress.
9. Fix up a house worthy of someone's love and my wacky but heartfelt aesthetic.
10. Learn how to make my own green tea latte.
11. Live in Red Rock country someday.
12. Find a job that lights me.
13. Spend several weeks on an equine pilgrimage in Mongolia.
14. Please God.
15. Own a dishwasher.
16. Knit two gloves that actually look the same.

Utah Lake Adventure and Other Musings.

It's been a wonderful fall. It seemed every tree has burst out in bright, hypnotizing gold this year, with hardly any red or orange, and I've been able to witness a lot of it. I'm immensely grateful to have the sort of work/life schedule where I can go out and enjoy the crisp air and changing colors and shocking beauty of fall. Unlike other years where I've had to tamp down my agony about the colder weather, for once, I was happy to put the summer behind me and walk into the future. In all honestly, this past spring and summer were maybe the most difficult I've traversed in my happy, comfortable first-world life. It's been a bit of a transition, leaving behind a good career and bustling office for a better career but lonelier landscape. Saying goodbye to my mare and finding her a better fit ultimately led to me taking a break from what has been an emotional, physical, social, therapeutic outlet and passion for me for many years, which in turn meant losing re...

Tidings of Comfort, Victory, and GIVEAWAYS!!!!!

1.  My Cranberry pie finally won!  After a tragic finish at an ugly sweater party, and being overshadowed by the chocolate pecan pie at Thanksgiving, my Nantucket Cranberry Pie (which I took to the next level with a chocolate cream cheese icing)  got first place at the office holiday party Top Chef competition. I am happy. 2.  I also coincidentally won a caption contest on my favorite horse blog, and for my witty mockery was awarded a gift certificate for horse tack!  As I currently don't have a horse of my own, I'm giving it to Camp K.  I hope my mother and her 3 horses, 2 mules and 2 donkeys forgive me.  But I'm still claiming victory on that one, and relishing in being mentioned on my favorite blog in the same post as my international heroes. 3. GIVEAWAY!!!!  I was inspired by a number of blogs giving away x-boxes, TVs, designer handbags, and gift cards to the moon, but I decided that you don't actually need to be rich to share the lo...
