Sharing sad news

October 14, 2016 By Jodi

black and white sea with fog

My dear readers,

With a heavy heart, I share the news that my father passed away yesterday. It is hard to be so far away from family in this time, and we hope to be traveling to Michigan soon to share in the love, comfort, and laughter of dear friends and family.

Several of my witty, talented friends have offered to share their words, photographs, and thoughts on Dear Sabrina about a whole host of topics in the coming days and weeks, so please keep checking the blog for new posts. I hope also to continue posting and sharing thoughts with you in this time, as I've come to deeply enjoy the small community building up around Dear Sabrina.

Have a lovely, lovely weekend, full of hugs and laughter with the people you love most.

Over the weekend I noticed an essay on Vox titled America is obsessed with happiness--and it's making us miserable. Obviously, given all that I have written about happiness here, including my own efforts to do a happiness project, the title jumped out at me. Even without reading the essay, that title gave me a prick of discomfort...

Thinking About Clothing

June 2, 2016 By Jodi 8 Comments

I have an uneasy relationship with clothes and style: I don't really care about fashion and I don't enjoy shopping, but I do like to look nice. I like the confidence that can come from wearing a well put-together outfit--I just can't be bothered to put one together!

A Morning at Denison Farms (Photos!)

October 31, 2017 By Jodi 1 Comment

It’s probably hard to believe that a couple weeks ago, I absconded one morning to a cafe for an hour of blog-planning and latte-sipping, no babies on board. I had more than a dozen ideas for posts I was excited to write—and then life happened, as it always does. Since that glorious hour of alone...
