A few weeks ago, I took a morning drive to downtown Zebulon, NC. A while back, when I had taken a painting class in Wendell with local artist Amy Richards, I had asked her if there were any hidden jewels in Eastern Wake that she thought should be highlighted.  She gave me some wonderful ideas, but the one that piqued my interest the most was the Mona Pants Mintage shop. So, I recently spent the morning exploring a shop where serious animal rescue efforts meet eclectic vintage, and I am so excited to share this fantastic store with you!

Do you ever have those times in your life when you know you’ve been slowly putting on weight or maybe losing some strength and endurance, but you just kind of shove that feeling down?  Right?  It’s easier to tell yourself, “Eh, I’ll weigh myself tomorrow,” or, “My life is so busy right now, I don’t have time to deal with this and get into the mess of dieting and exercise.”  But then, one day, you finally do step on the scale, and all of your fears you subconsciously know are happening are confirmed.
