In the spirit of YOLO, I finally bought myself this luxe bag. And I just love it! I've been putting it off for a year always concerned about the steep price tag. When people ask, "where'd you get that?" or "how much did that cost?" or "is it new?" I always get a little agitated. I feel like their questions are coming from a place of judgement and criticism. But as I grow older and more confident in my personal choices - whether it be an expensive shopping trip or the best way to grow your investment portfolio - I learn that it shouldn't matter too much what other people think. Especially if their opinions are only taking away from your life and not adding anything back to it. Trust in yourself and trust in your faith. Besides, you only live once! Do what makes you happy.

Although I love baking as a hobby, traditionally, I've always gone to my mom's house to enjoy some real, good home-cooking. But I've now started to enjoy my own home-cooking. I'm not saying I'm a full blown foodie, but I have started to cook each of my meals, everyday, with enjoyment. I went to the produce market the other day and was inspired to try some radishes for the first time in my life. I sliced it up and added it to my veggie stir fry with some potatoes, broccoli, carrots, mushrooms, etcetera. It was the best! I've also discovered rice vinegar courtesy of Martha Stewart which I like using in almost all of my stir frys now. So now that I'm on a roll, I want to try making a healthy version of take-out style shrimp fried rice. Like I said - I'm no foodie! But I'll keep y'all posted on my home-cooking adventures.
