“Everybody has to leave, everybody has to leave their home and come back so they can love it again for all new reasons.” ~Donald Miller Dear Universe, It’s hard to believe a month has gone by and I’ll be returning home later today. When I booked this trip I wondered if a month would be too long. There were moments …
Ode to Selfridges
“It is not down in any map; true places never are.” ~Herman Melville Dear Universe, Well, it’s official. I love Selfridges. (Don’t worry Big Ben, I still love you too.) The very first time I came to London in 2011 my mother introduced me to Selfridges. She explained I had to see it, had to go, had to spend quality …
List-less
Dear Universe, About a week and half ago I was catching up with a friend of mine here. He asked what my plans were while I was in London. I started rattling off different possibilities. Museums and movies, festivals and fairs, exhibits and excursions. He stopped me before I could finish. “You have a list, don’t you?” I cringed and …

I decided it was the perfect time to check out some of the markets London has to offer. It started with a return …
Days of Our Lives
Dear Universe, I’m a fan of soap operas and I am not ashamed to admit it (on my anonymous blog!) Ever since I was a child, I grew up knowing how many Emmy’s Susan Lucci was nominated for (21) and I was watching that fateful moment when she finally won in 1999 for her role as the unforgettable Erika Kane …
Regent’s Park
Dear Universe, Let me start off by thanking you for this incredible stretch of gorgeous days! Nothing is more motivating to me than waking up to a sunshine filled sky. It inspires me to get up, get dressed and go out and do something. Anything. So today’s morning adventure? A walk to Regent’s Park. It turns out this gem is …
