About MAL’s Blog
The Lady Who Lunches started as a simple concept - Me, the American lady, traveled to England to live with my boyfriend, the Englishman and became a lady of leisure - i.e. "a lady who lunches." Since this lady can't sit still for more than 10 minutes at a time, I wrote a novel. A year and a half passed and we're now back in the United States. Next adventure - traveling for two months around the states, selling novel, finding apartment, job and moving to Chicago.I Also Write Here

Familiarity and Mind Numbing
Being back in familiarity makes the mind numb. Makes my mind numb…or perhaps just comfortable. Every day flies by so quickly and leisurely for I know my surroundings so well that I don’t have to think. I know my family … Continue reading
Reality Strikes, Now What?
We’re back in Baltimore, Maryland. Our month long escapade across the roads of America is over. My month long escape from monetary, artistic and logical goals has quickly caught up to me. And here we are. Here we are in … Continue reading
Travel and A Book
Just finished writing fairly long post from jock’s iPhone, which probably wasn’t that long but considering the tapping on one finger – it was long enough. I left my laptop at home to be more “in the moment” during our … Continue reading
