30 Before 30

I used to have an annual tradition of putting my yearly goals on these crazy mood boards with magazine clippings, glitter, bright markers...you get the jest. They're super fun to make, and it was nice to look up at it occasionally and count the things that I'd accomplished.

Bucket lists always felt a bit distant and slightly morbid (I know, ridiculous), but a 30 before 30 seemed like I could make really big goals and save up or work hard for those things. I've got 5 years to go, and my list so far is JAM PACKED. Here's a few of my at times ridiculous, occasionally food-centric 30 before 30 list
