Blog Update: November 2026

Over the last year, life slipped into periods of chaos, resulting in the abandonment of my blog. However, I’ve decided to jump back in with a fresh update and explain the future of my blog.

I’ve decided to focus my blog on the things that make me happiest in life: cooking/baking, reviewing films, books, and music, providing updates on my personal life, and travel as we begin to approach the new year.

About two months ago, I finished my poetry book and sent it for consideration to the publishing company I dream of working with. I have about four more months before an answer is expected, and I want to focus my writing here.

I plan to share recipes to help you when you just don’t know what to make for dinner, travel ideas when you’re itching to leave town, and movie reviews that open your mind to genres you normally wouldn’t consider. I plan to publish at least once a week, but hope to continue posting more regularly.

I decided about a month ago to open an Etsy store in the mean time as a way to use my creativity as a potential side hustle. Here’s my link if you’re cool and want to purchase something: https://mtnlorealternative.etsy.com . I update this daily with new designs, so give me a follow and I hope to see an order from you!

For those who have checked in and encouraged me to come back to this, thank you. Your support has meant the world! Hopefully I won’t disappoint.

Stay tuned later this week for a travel review that I’ve been drafting!
