The Year to ACHIEVE

January 2, 2014 · 2 Comments

New Year’s Eve is often seen as a time of rebirth, the chance to start anew, and although I’m not one for resolutions, I’m all for reflecting on our life and setting goals, big or small, that we want to accomplish. Aside from being goals, these are passions that I want to make a reality, but my favorite part is that I’ve included friends and family in on these goals too. I’ll share with you the broader forms of these goals, as each one follows with smaller tasks, like getting more regular haircuts to making this the year the one I finally transform The Dreamery into an Event Styling and Specialty Dessert brand and business.  Last year, I decided my word for 2013 was Create, but this year I’ve decided to make 2014 the year to ACHIEVE! Whether you have set out goals for the new year or not, I hope that all your wishes are achieved and it’s a year filled with many wonderful moments.

  1. Don’t be so hard on myself, make myself a priority and remember to follow my passions
  2. Travel to old and new places, and see each place with a different eye
  3. Learn to not get overworked over the small things, remember to just breath when I feel frustrated and anxious
  4. Live more sustainably
  5. Feed my creativity
  6. Save money, and invest in the right areas
  7. Don’t hold myself back physically, push myself to try new things and fully commit
  8. Take and make an invested interest with others, and strengthen my relationship with family and friends
  9. Be present in the moment
  10. Give back to my community in a positive way, and get active about doing volunteer work that will impact some part of the world
  11. Continue learning as much as I can about everything possible
  12. Diversify my style
  13. Work on strengthening my photography skills
  14. Spend more time outside, and embrace nature through all seasons
  15. Get to know the area I live in a lot more, do as much as I can
  16. Turn my kitchen into an area of experimentation, while hosting more parties and gatherings
  17. Stop holding myself back from certain things, overcome my fears by not making excuses and just go for it!

Dreamery Headshot_2020

A Lover of Nature & Kindness, constantly smitten by the simple pleasures of life. Travel fills my soul with bliss & inspiration. Flowers are my weakness, a slice of homemade pie makes my heart sing. I love the outdoors & live for al fresco dinner parties, cozy candlelit romantic affairs with warm fires & blankets to share.

I dream about these things, it’s true. Yes, it’s all the small details in life that drive me & everything I do because we all deserve to celebrate every special moment in our lives…

This Soba Tom Yum Noodle dish, inspired by @chriss This Soba Tom Yum Noodle dish, inspired by @chrissyteigen recipe wouldn’t be considered traditional but it does celebrate the beautiful Thai flavors I love. I’ll take all the spice & lemongrass please🍜😋!! It’s certainly become a staple of mine, one I’ve recreated several times & I highly recommend you save in your back pocket because it will leave you craving more...& more!! 

I used to post lots of recipes on the blog ‘til weddings/events/design took center stage & hoping to do so more again. Get this recipe on the blog now!
I read something yesterday, that made me instantly I read something yesterday, that made me instantly stop & reflect..."Some people think that having Hope makes you naive, but in my mind, it's so much harder to choose Hope over being angry or frustrated..." As someone who considers herself quite a hopeful person, I've had this on my mind since. Let's not confuse Hope w. toxic positivity {in which negative feelings or hardships are pushed aside}, when there is Hope, we still acknowledge our worries, the drawbacks of life, the sadness but still know that there is good.

We've all been doing our best nearing a year into this pandemic; the lives lost, families broken, the uncertain long-term issues, jobs, livelihoods disrupted & most recently too many people to count, struggling after a natural disaster. My heart breaks & is w. all of you, but despite the darkness, what I've also seen during these trying times...is Hope & Love. Communities & strangers coming together to help one another however way they can, even when they too are struggling to get by. That right there, is Hope. Be gentle with yourself, be gentle w. those around you. We’re all doing the best we can🤍
