Constantly fascinated by the world around me. I've got the dreamer's disease... and I believe that a truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

I spend most of my time reading, writing, cooking & planning my life on Post-It notes. Music, wine, food, art & travel are my favorite fuel; spending time well wasted.
I began writing this blog because I think that every day we have something to be celebrated, shared, something that sparks creativity, inspiration & ideation.
Although I'm quite optimistic, I'm more judgmental than I'd like to admit. Here's to overturning assumptions.

René of the Day // 12.5.11 // Fireplace DVD


Perhaps the best $5 I’ve ever spent. I think I got it on sale at Border’s after the holidays a few years ago. Since I refuse to have cable (did you know you burn less calories watching TV than sitting in a chair doing nothing?) it’s nice to have some motion in the background as I’m cooking and reading. I like the jazz music selection best, without the crackling noise feature, but more than anything it’s a great backdrop. We only had a fireplace when I was really little and my parents just bought one of the fireplace entertainment centers – I love how it actually produces heat! But search on Amazon – a fireplace DVD truly is the next best thing to the real deal.
