By the end of last year I was able to come up with a pretty consistent posting schedule. Then it all came to a halt. What happened?
I got pregnant.
A (Big) Little Update
2021, My Low Buy Year
I’m not a minimalist. Nor do I aim to be. But 2020 was such a year of indulgence when it came to online shopping for me, that I feel like I need to take a step back and refrain my consumerism.
Basically, I’m so full of stuff I need a shopping diet.

10 Lessons I Learned With 100 Blog Posts
Time flies when you’re over 25. Years, not posts. I started this blog two years ago and it feels like it was 3 months ago, max. The past post was my 100th. Even though I feel like I haven’t learned all that much, after 100 pages of content, I must have some lessons learned, right?
