I have a favorite number. If there were going to be a pop quiz about how well you know me?  That would definitely be one of the questions. What is Breida’s favorite number? (don’t worry, it’s not really a quiz) 518 I also LOVE vintage locker baskets.  (that would also be on the quiz) LOVE [...]

Let Your Heart be Light {on finding ways to banish stress & anxiety from the most wonderful time of the year} {9}

When I was little, when we all were little, the very idea that Christmas was a whole year away gave me a little pain in my heart.  For truly, I thought, I could not bear to wait that long.  The time from one Christmas until the next Christmas was at least 3 years.  Or so.  Right? [...]
