I write like it's my job - because it is! I have a Master's in English and love words: crossword puzzles, Scrabble games, Wordle, and, of course, good, old-fashioned books.
I'm a writer and editor at OnlyInYourState, and a contributing writer at Cincinnati Magazine. I love the Great Outdoors and am endlessly awestruck by this beautiful country of ours. Coffee keeps me going, yoga keeps me sane, my kids keep me grounded, and my writing keeps me inspired.
There are some places that haven’t simply stood the test of time; they’ve grown, thrived, and become legends in their own right. Helen Bernhard Bakery in Portland, Oregon, is one of those places. Since 1924, this bakery has been providing Portlanders with some of the tastiest treats in town, from breads and pastries to cakes and cookies. Over the last century, Helen Bernhard Bakery has been owned and operated by just two families, who passed the bakery baton from generation to generation. It’s a formula that’s worked, with the bakery a bona fide Portland icon.
