What is a year?

The 77 day challenge – weighing in

I read an article by Melanie Stefan the other day that proposed a radical idea, to make a CV of our failures. The publication argued that making such a document would bring to light that not all paths are black... Continue Reading →

Yeay for victory!

Board games are one of my family's big passions. I think that is evident from the fact that I made a card game for my husband's birthday. Whenever we can, we'll play a bit. Sometimes we even invite friends or... Continue Reading →
