Welcome to Pleasure Notes!
I created Pleasure Notes in late 2008, when I was in a dark period and needed a place through which to find some light. It has since become a place where I chronicle this crazy, joyous, bumpy ride called life. In sharing my experiences, outlook and aesthetic, I hope to put a smile on your face, touch your heart and make your day a little brighter. May Pleasure Notes inspire us all to be the most delicious, authentic and pleasure-filled lovelies we can be!
