About

Welcome to Eighteen Almonds!

I’m Bethany, an impatient, Type-A, FOMO-sufferer and aspiring entrepreneur attempting to find inner calm and contentment through meditation, running and food.  I started writing Eighteen Almonds as a creative outlet and a place to write about whatever came to me. I actually kept it a secret for a long time because I didn’t want to presume that anyone would have any interest in what I have to say.  And they still may not.  Which is ok.  The internet is too cluttered anyways.

My interests include petting puppies, twinkly lights, watching Fixer Upper, running half marathons, red wine, mountains, beaches, orthodontia, happy hour, pajamas, the great city of Columbus, spending Saturday morning reading a good book with a cup of coffee, and food – every single thing about food.  My fantasy is to achieve the kind of freedom that can only come from satisfaction with one’s place in the universe mingled with enjoyment of the journey. .

Because from what I’m beginning to understand, the journey is what it’s all about…
