Drinking ‘Round the World

Disney World really IS the greatest place on earth. As a Florida resident, we not only get to enjoy the beautiful beaches and tropical weather all the time, but Disney World is in driving distance. Even though I have only been a handful of times to the most magical place on earth since I moved here in ’97, its still nice to know I can go whenever I want to (and at a not-so discounted FL resident rate). Every fall for about 2 months they put on the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival. How can you not be intrigued….

Sobriety & Creativity: Do they go hand and hand?

0

*WARNING WARNING* Mahhhm post ahead! Before I got pregnant, I guess I would classify myself as quite the lover of alcohol. I’ve been drinking consecutively for a good 10 years. Alcohol was my buddy. We did a lot together. Watched T.V, football games, alcohol even accompanied me to parties and even got me through some bad times. The day I found out I was pregnant, all I wanted was a stiff dirty martini. We kept my pregnancy a secret till I went to the doctors to confirm there was a tiny kidney bean floating around in my belly. When ever…
