Savour the adventure and enjoy the taste of new cheese!


Savour the adventure and enjoy the taste of new cheese!


Although it may be scary, it is vital that we allow ourselves to enjoy new cheese once in a while! Now this cheese must be the right cheese at the right time; however I have decided that there is no such thing as knowing whether the cheese you taste is definitely the best cheese for you. We can only look at the facts, the cold hard facts, regardless of our emotions, and decide whether we are willing to risk giving up old cheese that has become stale for new cheese, that may, or may not, be the cheese we love the most!


Taking that first step, as Haw did in the story, is definitely the most difficult part. That first step takes us out of our comfort zones, makes us feel vulnerable (a feeling that many people inour society including myself LOATH), uncertain and insecure. None of those emotions are associated with a good thing, but they come with taking risks... even educated risks!


I challenge you this week to get out of yor comfort zones, no matter how little the task, and take a risk (that shouldn't physically harm or kill you :P) that you normally would not.
Have an incredible long weekend!
Love, Chanel

WHO MOVED MY CHEESE????




Change Change Change.... do you have any? A penny, a nickel, a life-altering choice to be made?

Change can mean many things! From changing a diaper to selling a house (or two) to changing your career or your socks.... it all needs to be done when the smell is getting ripe!

We recommend reading the book: Who Moved My Cheese? for EVERYONE. If you are being faced with any difficult changes in your life, or possibly if you aren't even aware of how stinky your situation is, may this book inspire you to embrace change in your life and move along the path that you were brought here to do!

It is a tiny book that would take approximately 2 hours to read.... but provides you with a lifetime of fulfillment... seriously INSPIRATIONAL without being "heavy" or "too much" or "very philosophical" or "hard to digest" or "DEEPLY and annoyingly thought provoking and depressing." This book does not make us feel continually inadequate or guilty, but inspires us to be happier better people through the telling of a simple parable: Who Moved My Cheese?!

Heather and Chanel: cheese lovers. Serious cheese lovers. We have made the decision to stop eating all of the cheese dangling before us, and to begin to be selective, "high class" dairy consumers (ie. mice), and choose our cheese carefully

Here's one for the ages: THE QUICKER YOU LET GO OF OLD CHEESE, THE SOONER YOU FIND NEW CHEESE.

It's true that cheese, like wine, gets better with age, but cheese, like wine, can also become acidic and moldy if left too long.
P.S. Cheese Whiz is not real cheese, and therefore does not count!


Think about it... madly, deeply, and grab some of the good cheese! (Wine doesn't hurt either...)
