7 Quick Takes Friday (vol. 15): the Saturday edition

— 1 — Yes, in the interest of full disclosure: this is the Saturday edition of #7QT.  I meant to write this on Friday.  I really did.  I have tabs open in my browser that I have kept open almost all week because I wanted to write something about them on Friday for my 7QT post.  And when…

I love the way God sets things like this up. My friend Faith has a friend who has a “book blog” who reviewed Dan Brennan’s book, Sacred Unions, Sacred Passions.  Then my friend Sara, who found Kathy Escobar‘s blog years ago, sent me a link to one of Kathy’s posts about this conference at which she…

Meet Happy
Simple Felicity is, at its heart, a blog based on the unshakeable belief that happiness really isn't all that complicated. It's often found in the simplest of things: good food, good books, and good company. So those are the things I write about, along with a few other things that really matter to me, including faith and feminism. A bit about me: My name is Happy. I have an amazing talent for misplacing my keys, a deep appreciation for whomever looked at the coffee bean and thought, "Hey, I wonder what would happen if I roasted this?", and road trips to Michigan are pretty much my favorite.
