I wasn’t sure what to expect. I knew there would be wine, and I was supposed to bring a yoga mat, but that was pretty much the extent of the research I’d done. I’d seen an Instagram ad for an event at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden (which is pretty much my NYC happy place) called…

Seven Stories That Have Shaped My Life: #5 – the one about learning to see

Seven Stories That Have Shaped My Life: #5 – the one about learning to see

I had the privilege of attending the Global Leadership Summit at Willow Creek this week, and one of the sessions was an interview with Ed Catmull, president of Pixar animation and author of Creativity, Inc (which is now most definitely on my reading list).  He said something so simple and yet so profound: “Art is not…

7 Quick Takes Friday (vol. 58): identity, dreams, beauty, and love

7 Quick Takes Friday (vol. 51): beauty, connection, and the thing about being a grownup

— 1 — I remembered shortly after publishing last week’s 7QTs that I’d forgotten about a couple things I meant to share and (due to forgetting) didn’t.  So this week’s first two takes are from last week, but hey, I’m clearly still thinking about them, so they totally count.   First, some autocorrect fun from…

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.
