This past Sunday, I finally made my favorite Autumn treat for the first time this season. Usually, I would already have made a bunch. But things have been a little crazy lately. Thankfully though, our move is complete & we are mostly settled in our new temporary home. So I busted out the Kitchen Aid [...]

A healthy dinner complete with salad. Brownies & Ice Cream. Catching up with family. A competitive game of cribbage. The warmth of a cozy fire on the first chilly fall night. Laughing. Feeling content. Feeling connected. Good conversation. Feeling loved. Making plans for future adventures. Indulging in memories. Simplicity at its finest. Coming home to [...]

Well, I lied! Not on purpose, mind you. But at this moment, Nick & I are living amidst the chaos of boxes half-packed & piles of to-be-thrown-away-or-sold stuff. October 31st is the magic number, the end to life underground. Now I know you don’t care are dying to know why the sudden switch when in [...]

I wouldn’t recommend trying to dry soggy wet sneakers by your car heater… Why, you ask? Well if you’ve tried it, you know exactly why….or maybe my experience was uniquely mine. You see, this seemed like a BRILLIANT idea yesterday morning. It all started Sunday afternoon, as I traipsed about in the drizzle and the [...]

…when you don’t tell anyone what you’re up to, you never have to feel bad when you don’t do it. Or guilty. Like I do. Good thing I didn’t tell anyone that I was planning to go to a workout class this evening & am instead, sitting here at home, writing this blog & chomping [...]

Just about a week ago, I remarked on how quickly August was going & how it was almost September. I spoke too soon it seems because it’s STILL August! This last week or so seems to be dragging on despite the adventures of an end of summer hurricane (no problems here, just some minor power [...]

September 22. That is the first day of Fall this year. September 11. That is my birthday. I have always considered myself to have a fall birthday. Turns out, my birthday is actually officially in the summer. I thought I would be happy at this realization. But as it turns out…I’m not. Because right now, I am in [...]

I cut my hair today! Merely 2 hours ago my hair was down to past my shoulder blades with long layers. Currently it is shoulder length….with bangs! Eeek :/ I was so nervous to do it, but I have been feeling for a very long time that I wanted to do something different with it. [...]

I have discovered a new autumn drink & it is quite delicious. Mix about .5 shot of butterscotch & .5 shot of apple pucker all in with a full cup of warm apple cider & there you have it. It’s delicious people. I do not lie. Try it. I am happy it is October. However, [...]
On Wednesday afternoon my mom & I took off on a semi-planned trip to Freeport, Maine. Our mission: a getaway & L.L.Bean outlet!! There were lots of things to be thankful for on that trip… Sand between my toes :: crisp fall weather & a lil sunshine :: ben & jerry :: kerplunks & good deals :: [...]
