I have a 73 year-old cousin in Paris
He writes a column and children’s books. COOL!
Also, my sister has sent me on a mission to find Leonardo Da Vinci’s last house, Clos Lucé Manor, near Amboise in Loire Valley. She wants me to find this book on cave dwellers in the bookstore of the house… I’m so down. She’s also requesting macarons. Done.

Boys are easy. Friendships are hard.**
Now, if relationships are as difficult as the people in them, what happens with two difficult people? Can you separate out and sieve through difficulties in a person in such a way that excuses said difficulties? Or is it impossible to just walk away from specifics behaviors?
This is one of those rare moments where I wish mathematical rules could be applied and two negatives is magically a positive.

A humble list (New & improved)
Yes, it’s still alive.
My name is Millie.
I enjoy yoga, traveling, cooking, reading and running.
And, sometimes I write.
If the computer is a bicycle for the mind, I can ride pretty fast.
