Never before have I seen so many blood orange recipes. I haven’t looked to see if anyone near us sells blood oranges, but the more recipes I see, the more interested I am in finding out if the fruit is worth eating.  I did try the new Chobani flavor, but it wasn’t life changing.  I [...]

The Inevitable Pinterest Post

I suspect that there are very few people left on the planet who don’t know what Pinterest is.  Granted, I think those 5 people read Relishments and I love them very much (Hi Mom!), but seriously, Pinterest is everywhere.  For those unaware, Pinterest is a “virtual pinboard” that lets you save images from all over [...]

Travel Alphabet

I stole the idea for this lovely travel alphabet post from Cynthia.  I hope you enjoy it! A: Age you went on your first international trip: In the spring of 2003, I went to London with a group from my high school.   It was a fabulous trip—several of my good friends were in attendance, and [...]

Remember Christmas?

Remember Christmas?  It was only 10 days ago, after all.  But for some reason (and I’ve only been back at school for 2 days) it seems like a lifetime ago.  Going from vacation to work again is like whiplash. So let’s go back a couple weeks ago, when I was in North Carolina wearing a [...]

Things I Learned While Creating My 101 in 1001

Last year, I made 8 new years resolutions.  Each month, I wrote a post describing my current progress and feelings about those goals.  And by December (actually, much sooner than that), I was really tired of doing so.  I felt like the posts weren’t especially interesting, I wasn’t making remarkable progress, I wished I chosen [...]

Goals In Progress: December and 2011 Overall

It’s hard to believe that it was a full 12 months ago when I first listed these goals on Relishments.  2011 was a great year but, as far as these Goals in Progress posts are concerned, I’m glad its over.  Posting my goals list and updating my progress monthly kept me from forgetting my resolutions [...]

Lessons from Relishments (+ a Giveaway!)

As I mentioned on Monday, a lot has changed since 2008.  I’ve also learned a lot since I began Relishments 3 years ago, both about life and blogging. Listing all the things I’ve learned about life would take forever, so I’m going to limit this particular list to just blogging lessons. What Relishments Has Taught [...]

What a Difference 3 Years Makes

3 years ago, I was 24.  I lived with my parents and worked as an assistant high school librarian/tutor at my alma mater.  I was 6 months away from my wedding, itching to get out of the house and bored out of my mind.  The job was decent–it provided me with the opportunity to spend [...]

Before and After

Before, we only had enough dishes for 8 people. You would think that would be enough, but when some of those dishes get used as serving dishes or aren’t all clean, it’s not always enough for company. Thanks to the generosity of my parents, we now have enough dishes for 12. Before, we only had [...]
