Prudence is a virtue and for darn good reason: it encourages a pause for reflection, to integrate knowledge, to make a thoughtful decision. Hesitation, however, implies self-doubt, something I strive to run far from.

Intentionally, I chose to find ease in 2017 by taking the path of least resistance; utilizing the natural gifts and passions that I have to drive my actions. Imitation preceded creation in my first few seasons of real estate. Instead of finding success their way, I found it my way.

The layers were revealed to me with pride: the wainscoting, chair-rail, the new counter tops and even a miniature door for the tooth-fairy to visit. The best part, other than the aesthetic beauty? With each layer came a story from a moment in time for the home owner. We were told about the day when that new layer appeared and why. Seriously, like the rings of a tree, this home was a chronological landmark for the growth of a family. So yea, listing your home is a big BIG deal to me.

Great Expectations
If it is made of carrots it is good for you, I’m not open to hearing otherwise. We came for kettle-corn and left with a stroller full of baked goods …
Holy Crepe
No, not served on a plate, on a tray…next time I might just ask for a trough to eat out of- no fork needed. Little did Irina know, but as …
