sarcasm and the single girl

Today’s guest post in our series on singleness and the church is from my friend and fellow-blogger, Jen. Jen is one of the most beautiful people I know, inside and out, and she approaches being single the way she approaches everything else: with a positive attitude, and a heart that looks for the beauty in…

three men and a journal: reflections on pursuing the one relationship that matters most

Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve talked a fair bit about the drawbacks of online dating.

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.
