With a bag of chia seeds in my left hand, my keys and cream colored gloves in the other, I pushed open our front door. “Robert!” I called out. Letting him know I was home. No answer. “Robert!” I screamed again. That’s when I saw it. Our small wooden table placed strategically in the doorway. […]

“I can’t wait to have more than one closet! We need to move!” I pronounced for the dozenth time that week as I handed Robert his coffee. “Why haven’t you found us a lake house yet?” he said, half joking, half seriously, as he walked out the front door of our one bedroom row-home in […]

I never thought I would appreciate kickboxing this much… I never thought I would be able to tell the difference between a push kick and a snap kick or how to execute the perfect elbow. Honestly, I never really thought I would care. From the first moment I met Robert, I knew that martial arts […]

I forgot. I am embarrassed to admit it, but I forgot. I forgot what it feels like to have my sisters there with me every single day. I forgot what it sounds like to live my life along side them and share anything and everything that comes to mind. I forgot how much I counted […]

“I am going to be a food photographer” I assured myself as I sat on i95 on the way back to Western Mass. “That’s what I want… Right?” I sighed. I couldn’t help it. I’ve spent the last 10 months putting all of my time, energy and heart into becoming the best food photographer possible. […]

I’m not the yoga type. I’m really not. I’ve always been the High Intensity Cardio kind of gal. The idea of breathing deeply in a warrior pose with my eyes closed really didn’t interest me. I like when my heart rate sky rockets and my feet are going nearly as fast as my mind. I […]

“Do you want to know where we are going?” I asked as Robert as I looked over at him. He was all dressed up in his gray suite and blue tie looking as sharp as ever. He hopped into the passenger side of my KIA SOUL. “Nope, just drive and I’ll find out once we […]

 “Tail!”  Robert yelled as he started running through the tall, unkept grass.  “What?” I said as I followed. “TAIL! I saw something with a tail” OH NO! Robert zipped by me making a path for me to follow, my adrenaline kicked in and I was on the move. As we rushed through the trees and […]

“Aunt Yael. Do you want to go to the Five Dollar Store with us?!” My six year old niece, Ayelet asked as soon as Rob and I walked in the door.  “We would love that” I responded. Her face lit up. “Can I get a hug now?!” I asked. She giggled and hopped into my […]
