October is turning out to be a marathon…in a good way. I’m starting to figure out the work-at-home mom thing (such a gift, but comes with its own challenges). I’m discovering where my creative side can stretch and grow again (hello crack-o-dawn writing sessions). I’m cleaning up the “what-ifs?” and “should-haves” that have been gathering dust in the back of my mind (less obsessing and worrying, more speaking my mind and letting go). And in the midst of that, there’s a lot of cooking, mama-ing, writing, and traveling going on.
October has been a tiring month so far, but a rewarding one. I’m grateful for all the delicious meals that have been coming out of my kitchen courtesy of Crazy Sexy Kitchen. I’m pressing pause on my to-do list to take walks with my daughter and read her books and soak in the ups and downs of her toddler-hood. I’m celebrating unexpected thrills like being mentioned in the latest issue of VegNews Magazine and holding a hardcover copy of Crazy Sexy Kitchen for the first time. And I’m reveling in the happy exhaustion that comes after a day well spent–when I’ve worked hard, tried to be the best mom and wife I can be, and taken care of myself as much as possible.
That’s all we can do and the rest can wait til tomorrow.
❤,
Corinne

I love this Corinne! “less obsessing and worrying, more speaking my mind and letting go…” couldn’t have said that better myself! Been contemplating the crack-o-dawn writing sessions too. Nicely done for getting the job done, girl. Not easy to do. PS: i’m SO looking forward to Kris’s book and all the crazy sexy cooking.
Hey Jodi! The ability to do crack-o-dawn writing sessions comes and goes. I feel best when I can make it happen though! You’re going to love Crazy Sexy Kitchen. Enjoy! xo
What an absolutely gorgeous site you have, Corinne. I just love stopping by here and soaking up the creative flow.
Thank you so much, Alia! It’s wonderful to hear from you:) xo
