if not now, then when…

Hi! Welcome to my corner of the internet. I started this blog simply to document my life, in a more permanent way. A platform to showcase what I am creating, meals I am eating, and places I am going. A place to allow my creative self to have some fun.

I live on the Connecticut shoreline with my boyfriend, Dylan. I am a registered nurse by day, and I work in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. I absolutely LOVE my job; it is challenging, thrilling and so rewarding but I always feel there is a side of me that I don’t get to focus on. My creative self. I love life’s simple pleasures: Good food. Simple interiors. Beautiful places. I hope to highlight those areas of my life here. Be sure to connect with me on Instagram (@michaelaparise) or send me an email at parise.michaela@gmail.com. I am so glad YOU are here and I hope you leave at least a little inspired!
