From the Editor: Welcome to Burning the Midnight Oil

Things that we love can plague our brains  to near obsession at times.  I know I’m not the only person for whom, during a creative spell, sleep abandons. My brains inability to stop thinking (obsessing) until a beloved project is completed or taken to the next stage is fueled by rich thoughts, insominia, adrenaline,  and [...]

All Things Girl:  Reflections

Welcome to Reflections (March/April 2011)

I’m sure I’m not the only person thrilled that the calendar page has once again been flipped.  I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for the month of March, as it brings to mind fat robins, Saint Patrick’s Day, and the first day of spring.  March reminds me that though there still may [...]

A: This basically means we are a “work in progress”. It allows us to work on the site live and implement changes as [...]

From the Editor: Welcome to Mother Nature, Father Time (Sept/Oct 2010)

It’s hard to believe that another seasonal change is on the horizon.  It seems like only yesterday we were celebrating the Spring Equinox and in the blink of an eye, the Autumn Equinox will be upon us.   The ancient cultures believed in the forces of nature as the soul of their culture, and within this [...]

From the Editor: Mid-Issue Update of Heart and Soul

We are mid-way through 2010.  The Summer Solstice will soon be upon (at least for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere).  The soft breath of spring upon the earth will soon become the sun-baked days of summer.   Summer love, soul-wrenching good-byes… Tell me, what has captured your hearth so far this year?  And better [...]

The Dog Ate My Homework or why the March/April Issue of ATG is late

Everywhere I turn these days, I see studies on how women are over-worked, over-committed, and overwhelmed.   We are expected to bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan, and leap tall buildings in a single bound. Women are incredible at multi-tasking and sheer amazing at the way they balance the worlds of work, [...]

Mid-Issue Update: Harmony

I’m sure I say this every year, but I can’t believe it’s already December!   Before you know it, we’ll be flipping the calendar page and greeting 2010.  Like many of you, the women that make up the All Things Girl family are focused on family and winding up the year and planning for the next [...]

From the Editor: Welcome to Harmony (November/December 2009)

When planning themes for All Things Girl, we try to balance out something inspirational while matching the time of year.  The end of any year brings  Holy Seasons for many religions of the world as well as the spiritual and secular impending New Year.   “Harmony”, we hope, covers both of those areas for each of [...]

From the Editor: Welcome to Lost & Found (September/October 2009)

School is beginning and I’ve been thinking about the Lost and Found at the various elementary schools across the world.  How long will it will be before they are overflowing with forgotten lunchboxes, jackets discarded on the monkey bars, and trodden upon book bags.  Life is like the lost and found of an elementary school, [...]

Mid-Issue Update: One for the Road

Summer in the Northern Hemisphere is growing stronger, even though the calendar is telling us that we are *almost* at the end of the season.  Families are doing last minute vacations as thoughts of school loom in the near future.  And many folks are having pool parties and other gatherings to enjoy the season as [...]

From the Editor: Welcome to One for the Road (July/August 2009)

It’s summertime in the Northern Hemisphere, which makes me think of one thing:  Summer Road Trip.  Road trips are filled with adventure and perils as well as comfort and destinations.  This is exactly what we were thinking when we planned the July / August  issue of All Things Girl is about; the happenings along the [...]

From the Editor: Welcome to On Display (May/June 2009)

I believe it was Shakespeare who said “All The World’s a Stage”.    When it comes to life, there are moments in which we stay in the background, and then there are the moments that we choose to stand out.  This is exactly what the May / June issue of All Things Girl is about; [...]

Mid-Issue Update: Wilderness

As we move from the March winds and into April showers, we cannot help but think of nature as the earth is reborn.  There are cultivated flower boxes and well kept lawns emerging around us, but in other places, we find the wilds, where Mother Nature flourishes.  With those thoughts, we are thrilled to bring [...]
