Welcome to my photographic and prose-lined journey through the sweeter side of life. Sweet moments, sweet travels, sweet bakes, and at times… everything in between.
Formerly sunshineandyoga.com and sabrieking.com – I’m taking a new direction with this web page and feel very comfortable and at home with the decision. Just going with the flow to see what road unviels.
Thanks for joining me, in spirit and conversation. Much love.
