Welcome to My Fitness Journey Journal!
I've gone back and forth over writing this post but since I have already
written it a dozen times in my mind, I figure - WHY NOT! I never
imagined this blog becoming a journey of health/fitness and
transformation but what better place to share my commitment! Hopefully,
by sharing the ups and downs, being vulnerable and honest with myself

I love fonts, scripts, and typography! The way each letter appears and relates to one another is very specific and holds a lot of meaning. There is so much emotion in a script. You can type the same thing over and over yet it can produce a different feeling each time in a new script.
Installing new fonts is so easy! I literally have 100's I've collected.

Basil is probably my most favorite herb. Fresh or dried, it's an asset to any kitchen! If you properly prune your basil plant, it will continue to grow and produce those yummy leaves we all love. I've lost a few plants over the years due to improper pruning so I have made it a real mission to keep my basil plant healthy.

Today's review is about a recent experience and purchase with the online company thredUP. My sister in law sent me a coupon code and since I have some many little cuties to dress, I just had to check it out for myself.

Today I'm excited to share a project I have wanted to do for so long...get my spice drawer organized so I can actually find the spices I'm looking for! I have a spice drawer in my kitchen which isn't deep enough for the average spice jars, so they all end up laying there on top of each other. Well, not anymore!
