I'm Richelle. My husband is Brian. Our two cats are Bjorn and Amira. I try not to embarrass them, but that's not always possible.

I have avoided blogging for four years, but I am back. I need an outlet that isn't my book. I drink gin, love cats, Bravo television, all murder-y shows, lipstick in every shade of red, mountains, the ocean, traveling and a bunch of other hobbies that I don't often have time to do. I hope you enjoy the words I have patched together to form stories of my life.

Did you know there are pages and pages on the Internet explaining how to boil an egg? The Burrito & I are still maintaining our healthy lifestyle (see, Absence makes […]
The rain is making a soft pitter-patter against the window. Each drop clears a trail through the dusty pane and then falls to the ground. Birds are happily chirping […]
I started blogging to put my writing out there and see what kind of feedback I got. I posted excerpts from my book and the response was great. […]
Removing. Restricting. Eliminating. Withdrawing. These are not kind verbs in their own right and adding them to my nutritional vocabulary has been stinging. You may have read my article, Absence makes […]
