2020-02-06 A Serious Reality Check
Spoiler Alert… It’s not all rainbows and butterflies (though I’ve had a lot of both very recently). There is a story that most of us are taught, about life.

2020-01-24 One Way to Start a Friday
I woke up shortly after 3am and was immediately consumed by thoughts about everything going on. A veritable Rolodex of current events. 1. 8 days until the wedding. 😱 2.

2019-11-19 Signed, Sealed, and (being) Delivered
Today’s post is brought to you by the least bridezilla bride to be of all time. Yours truly, Miss SugarCookie. I literally have to be the most easy going bride to be of all time. Either that or I have not hit that wall yet where I’m freaking out about every detail getting sorted. Don’t…
