From Missouri to Wisconsin, with a pitstop in Nashville for Elle’s. I have moved many, many times. To dorm rooms and college apartments and intern housing and a place in New Orleans with a black-and-white checkered floor. None of them not a single one have ever quite felt like. But here’s the bottom-line, at the end of the day: the sadder ...

My mom, seester Aunt Peg came to see me this weekend.

Google be damned, there will be a rack of brochures on that city’s random tourist attractions (The Cheese Haus! My fa...

When The Fam Comes To Town. Life is a Fiesta! On Anxiety, Jesus and Bradley Cooper. May 2, 2015. Y’all, I have quite a treat today. My dear friend Catie, a mish at Mankato in Minnesota, is sharing her complicated, layered story on battling anxiety and coming to terms with God. Her honesty is beautiful.

Twilight = The Selection. Which is to say, I loved them, and have less respect for myself as a result. And I am PUMPED, because I loved this one but wanted more. If it is about ballet...

May 12, 2015. For the past two years, I’ve chronicled my life as a missionary. For the past two years, I’ve presented the message of the Gospel to young women and been inspired by how they’ve responded. For the past two years, I’ve worked on a team. A team of four. Two very, very, very different teams, who taught me very, very, very different lessons. I’ve prayed the Rosary. And gone to Daily Mass. And done a million other things I always thought only very strange people did. I’ve lived in New Orleans.
