I will often get laughed at that most of my favorite albums are nearly (or well over) 20 years old. This can actually be a cool thing for me since that means when these albums dropped, I was too young to care or listen. If […]
One of my favorite elements when traveling is making wishes come true. However small or silly they may seem. A good example is when I was in San Francisco a few years ago. Growing up, baby Mary dreamed of getting her picture in front of […]
I’m sitting outside on my patio at our new home. It’s a little gloomy, cool, and I can hear some rumbles from cars chugging by out front. Our surroundings are night and day compared to our previous home. Gone is the “family-friendly” environment (how our […]
It’s hard to believe it’s once again Monday. While I know I’m not the only one beginning to go a little stir crazy (or maybe you’re already there?), I’ve been attempting to keep busy. Easier said than done, I must say. I feel antsy. The […]
As the year comes to a close, that usually means one thing for me: my word of the year. While I’ve chosen my word for 2019, I’ve been reflecting quite a bit on my 2018, which was happiness. As I’ve had numerous ups and downs […]

I am so excited for another great Summer here in LA! Being an LA native, I love to find things to do (& when they’re free, extra perk). Below, I have compiled a list of 20 awesome events ranging from music to eating, to movies […]

You know me, I love concerts. I also really love music festivals like FYF & the fast approaching, Sunset Strip Music Festival, which I am SO excited to say I will be at for Press purposes for Along Comes Mary! 🙂 I last attended SSMF in 2010 […]
