I Love Fashion

Fashion is defined as "a popular trend, especially in styles of dress and ornament or manners of behavior," but there is so much more to it than what the definition explains. The items of clothing we chose to wear are often times our most powerful and apparent forms of personal expression. What we choose to...

Video Blogs Continue

I've continued to post my daily video blogs on my YouTube channel TheGirlWithAQuirkySide , but because of the holiday, my blogs about them did not go up. This post is about the 3 video blogs that I did not write about yet. Today's YouTube daily vlog is NUMBER 27! I'm so close to the end...

Day 20 – A Day Filled With Baking

I was tired, but I had already committed to baking 3 loafs of beer bread as well as 6 pumpkin rolls. I had no choice but to follow through with my commitments. Thankfully the beer bread was a simple 6 ingredient recipe so it didn't take me too long to prepare the dough to then...

Day 19 – Cookie Exchange & A Trip to Winterhaven!

I don't know how I managed to accomplish hosting a cookie exchange party and visit Winterhaven during one of the busiest weekends, but I did. It seems that I've been living every moment of life to its fullest. It's been a little stressful at times but so well worth it. Hosting a cookie exchange only...

Day 13 – Let It Glow

Hundreds of fluorescent trees and neon halo lights "Let It Glow" throughout the Downtown Disney District at the Disneyland Resort. This whimsical, colorful celebration of the season was not a traditional one, but rather an innovative spin to the holiday gallery of trees that many are used to seeing. The trees vary in height and...

Day 12 – Let’s Tour Universal Studios

Christmas can be chaotic and crazy, but it is also a beautiful and meaningful time of year. I find that the most meaningful are all of the little things experienced with loved ones like baking, laughing, and taking in all of the sights and sounds of Christmastime. For the past couple of years my sisters...

Day 10 – Cleaning the Car for a Trip

Thursday, the night before I set out on my road trip has arrived. My original Thursday evening plans were to attend a holiday singalong, but the show was sold out by the time I decided to purchase tickets online. So instead of venturing out after work, I stayed home to clear out the car for...
