Here, you’ll find honest reflections, hard-earned lessons, and practical strategies for creating an authentic life that you enjoy. If you’re trying to do it all without losing yourself in the process, you have found your sister in the struggle!  Continue reading to discover some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world.

Friday Tip: Free Donuts

If you hadn't heard, today is National Donut Day! I don't know how I have lived as long as I have and have missed this sacred day.  Although, I am generally a fan of healthful eating, I have never met a sale that I didn't like.  And as everyone knows, free makes everything taste better!

Apparently national donut day is not simply an ode to fried pastries that are covered in glaze.  It is a tribute to Salvation Army workers who distributed free donuts to soldiers during World War II. Apparently, the donut is a pastry with a purpose.  Who knew?!

The Huffington Post ran an article today listing places where you can get free donuts today. You can access the article through this link: Places to Get Free Donuts! 

For those in Pittsburgh, you can honor the holiday at a number of local locations, including Giant Eagle. Giant Eagle is making ALL DONUTS just $2.99 a doz.! It's a cheap way to host a Saturday breakfast if you're having guests.  Also, you can get a FREE DONUT with purchase of a hot or cold dispensed beverage. Check out this article for more local locations: National Donut Day Pittsburgh Style.

If you use Twitter, check out hashtags "#DoughnutDay or #DonutDay". Also, there's a website devoted to this holiday called, appropriately, "Donut Day USA".


Here's a video to tell you everything that you need to know about the holiday. ENJOY!!!
