Hey!
I’ve been thinking about you. How are you? I’m good!
You ready for 2012? I AM!!! I’m excited. I think it is going to be a great year. I have lots going on… I’m taking an acting class (for fun), I’m finishing up a leadership program that I started in the fall, I’ll be working on getting certified as a life coach, and generally just doing some awesome stuff.
As for Brownies for Dinner… I’ve got ideas. I feel like it’s time for a facelift. So I’m redesigning and I’m not sure how long it will take me to finish re-arranging the furniture. So please be patient with me.

I hate when bloggers disappear for months then come back saying “Sorry I haven’t written in a while” and “Hey, I’m still here”. It just seems… silly. I mean, we all get busy. And blogs are like friendships: sometimes we are in constant contact and other times… well, not so much.

Then this morning I was looking for an article on Whole Living that I saw in the current print issue but did not find it online. Instead I came across an article that I had read a couple months ago about “Cleaning as Meditation” and found myself re-reading it. But this time, it clicked.

Thanks to everyone who left comments. It has helped get me into the Christmas spirit (and sometimes I do need help). I loved reading about your best presents ever… everything from time with loved ones to diamond necklaces. I seriously got a warm fuzzy feeling from it which is a gift in itself, so again thank you all :)
And now for the winners…
Congratulations Allison and JoJo!
Christine from Neo Cocoa invited me to tag along with the Sweet Mafia on a private tour of the TCHO chocolate factory. And you know, when the mafia is involved, you can’t say no. So I took the train to San Francisco on Wednesday and met up with Christine and part of the sweet mafia at La Cocina where a few of them make their magic. We carpooled from there to Pier 17, the location of TCHO.
Normally, I would be worried if a mafia member drove me to a pier… I mean, that seems like a good way to end up swimming with the fishes. [Continue reading...]
