May 22nd, 2011 Emiko F. I’m reading a book now that I find really inspiring. It’s called “The Secret of Success is Not a Secret” by Darcy Andries. It is a brilliant volume of condensed biographies, about individuals in the world from different places who succeeded beyond a multitude of failures. Not one failure, or two, some people seemed to [...]
January 3rd, 2009 Alicia Well it has been sometime since I have blogged, before the birth of our second baby, Clover Alessandra. This topic, however, has to be blogged about. I started the Master Cleanse diet this past Monday, January 29th, 2008. It is a 10 day(min) fast where you only consume liquids consisting of a lemonade concoction and [...]

I think it could be hormonal… seems to be getting worse over the years. Dark, milk,white, cakes, cookies, ice cream — I will take [...]
November 26th, 2007 Alicia Motherhood for me has been such an interesting journey and my son is only 18 months old as of yesterday Nov. 25th. I knew it would change me and change my life but I didn’t know it would add so many layers to my life. Before Sebastian was born I thought I already had a [...]
November 26th, 2007 Alicia What is the meaning of blog anyways… ok this is my first post and I feel like I need to write something life altering. We have just finished a wonderful Thanksgiving in NC. I definitely ate way too much — need to look for redemption. I am hoping burn off the extra calories at my [...]

After reading the article, I have a feeling it’ll be [...]
January 30th, 2006 Frances When you walk on the streets of Manhattan you pass many people. On the days you’re not in a hurry, you can notice the many different expressions on their faces. Expressions that are sweet, sad, determined, peaceful, tense, angry, kind, happy, depressed, compassionate, anxious, strong, tormented, loving, etc. Sometimes someone will pass whose energy shifts [...]
