A Free-Spirited Chick’s Take on Today
Hop In! There’s room in the van
As kids, my brother and I rode through the mountains in a unicorn-decorated van, tagging along while our parents visited artists from their gallery and practiced mindfulness at Unitarian retreats. I didn’t know it then, but those adventures were quietly shaping how I see the world.
Now, I share little bites of blog bliss about art, nature, mindfulness, sustainability, and family life, all with an open mind. If you like curious thoughts and colorful ideas, you belong here.

I write about art, nature, mindfulness, sustainability, music, and family life, and quiet joys that make us human. With an open mind and a curious spirit, I share quick reads meant to inspire and spark connection.
