i love this photo. i hate this photo. i both it.

This photo. Hmmm. I love it and hate it all at once but I'm working on letting the love flow and releasing the hate. Kevin snapped this of Ruby and I while we were in Hawaii this past April. He loved that she and I were laying in the same position and just how much alike we looked. … Continue reading i love this photo. i hate this photo. i both it.

fall style flow.

Today is the first official day of Fall which happens to be my favorite season. I love how colorful and cool it is. I love the traditions of the season and being cozy in my favorite sweater while watching football; so terribly cliche but it's true.  Dressing my little one is among my most favorite … Continue reading fall style flow.

let’s go fly a kite, chase bubbles & eat lollipops!

This past weekend our neighborhood had a kite festival we enjoyed with some sweet friends; it was SO much fun. We are thankful to be part of such a warm and inviting community. The wind chose to rest much of the day but we were still able to see our kites fly intermittently. Rubina enjoyed it … Continue reading let’s go fly a kite, chase bubbles & eat lollipops!

see resh run.

I started running again recently, as in...yesterday. It was likely my 3,289th restart. I hate it. Running, that is. I suppose it's possible that if I were to run regularly and keep it up, for once, I might eventually fall in love but I just don't see that happening. I once ran consistently for about 3 … Continue reading see resh run.

Ballerina | Writer | Soccer Player

I have always been a pretty big dreamer. I've had a lot of them come and go throughout my life. There was a pretty long list of things that came to the forefront of my mind, as a child, when asked "What do you want to be when you grow up?" In no particular order, below is a list of some … Continue reading Ballerina | Writer | Soccer Player

that watermelon freshness.

As fall draws near, I am clinging to the last remnants of summer and summertime salads are a big part of that in our home. I'm sure you've heard of combining watermelon, feta and mint leaves into a salad. Haven't we all? Being the watermelon purist that I am, I was hesitant to try it... That is … Continue reading that watermelon freshness.

When Two Became Three, and One Became Whole.

Anyone who knows me knows I love the fact that I'm adopted; that I wear the title of "adoptee" with pride. This is primarily because I came from an impossible living situation in Calcutta (now Kolkata) and was blessed to be adopted into a loving, accepting family. Growing up, I cared nothing about genes because … Continue reading When Two Became Three, and One Became Whole.

i see you, patterns. in everything.

   I'm pattern and design obsessed. I see seek out patterns and textures in everything; even in pavement and paper towels. I fully recognize that it's strange to stare at a your paper towel and be drawn to it's design but, to be honest, this occurs often in my life. Rubina and I look for shapes and patterns in everything! She loves that the mountains look like triangles … Continue reading i see you, patterns. in everything.
