Today I started my day off around 7:00am. I hopped on my bike and instead of going right today, I went left. A friend of mine was telling me how they do a few laps by looping around the mall a few times. What came to mine was, so your a “mall biker.” I couldn’t…

Strawberry Picking with Friends
My friends and I all have children around the same age which makes it fun for us to plan outings. Each summer we do something fun and meaningful with our children. From picking apples (upcoming post) in the fall or picking strawberries in the summer. Normally, I share about places to go in RVA, but…
Being Blown By the Wind
“And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair” ― Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet Lets reflect on a few months ago. In the Fall of 2015 I purchased a bike with the intent to begin exercising by bike. To date, my bike has done…
Coffee is not my Cup of Tea
A cup of tea makes everything better; its always a good idea. I will admit that I am not like the average American because I do not drink coffee. Was there once a time when I did? Yes, but it was merely 1 cup or 1/2 a cup per a morning work day. On average, 50%…

Henna Belly Blessingway
I love Art in all of its forms from the universe that lies before us (mother nature, creations), canvas paintings, sculptures, and murals, and tattoos to Henna, body jewelry and more. At first I saw Henna and just thought it was “cool,” but I also had some inclination that it was a traditional ritual within…

Curried Lentil Bowl
Oh how I enjoyed every bit of this! Richmond, Va truly has hidden treasures. I always come across small restaurants in the city that are quaint, comfy, and rich in healthy menu options. I had this dish at The Daily Kitchen and bar. Below are the flavorful ingredients and what I consider an average dinner…
CBS6 Best Shot
I sent this photo I took yesterday around 5:15pm as the sun was setting. I Showed my mother and she told me to send in in to send it to crose@wtvr.com and put Best Shot as the subject line. It just so happens that today CBS6 broadcasted it during this morning’s news announcements. I thought…
When Art Meets Nature
My friend sent me this photo of a beautiful mural located in France. Since I have been on a Mural Mapping mission, I have been receiving lots of photos and notices of where other murals are. This one is not from the Richmond Mural Project. The artwork is done by Nuxuno Xan. The photograph was…
