day 4: venice beach

day 5: portland ladies who launch book event

day 6: portland TV, radio, vintage shopping + book event

we’re hOMe and happily resting after a tough red eye. those flights are brutal but allowed me to get back in time for evening MSW classes *and* we were blessed with an empty middle seat. guess who got to sleep the whole 4 glorious hours? yep, this girl.

a BIG thanks to all the lovely ladies who came out to support the many events over the past week. it was such a treat to meet you in person, hear your stories, and exchange hugs. missing the california fruit cups already – heaps of papaya, watermelon, strawberries, mango topped with spices. yum!
