Are you familiar with on-line magazines? It took me awhile to get the hang of them. I subscribe to only a few print magazines, but I like to curl up in bed or relax in a bath with them…. not quite as satisfying when you do the same with your computer (not to mention: slightly [...]

I enjoy Halloween. I don’t love it. Some people LOVE Halloween, but I’m not one of those. Especially when it comes to decorating. I have pumpkins ready to become jack o’lanterns sitting on my front step, but around this time of the year I’m more like to decorate for fall than specifically for Halloween. HOWEVER, [...]

I’ve resisted long enough. It’s time I admit that it’s BACK TO SCHOOL TIME! I officially got stuck behind not 1, but 2 school buses the other day. Then I stopped at Staples to make a copy and found it was packed. Like 20 people at the checkout packed. I should have run the other [...]

If you love French culture you’re a Francophile… If you love Italy you’re a Italophile… If you love Spain are you a Spanophile? I can’t seem to find any way to corroborate that online, but I’m sticking with it. Obviously I’m on a bit of Spain/Travel/Adventure kick this week thanks to my mama’s big trip [...]

Technically I’m supposed to be knee deep in fall and holiday prints right now in preparation for the next season. And I kind of am. But I couldn’t help just one more stab at summer and so I threw a Lemon print in with my new collection. If you have a friend who’s like me [...]

We all met each other when studying abroad in Ireland and cemented our friendship traveling around Ireland, France, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain and Scotland. We’re still planning a big trip to Greece and Italy called the “Tan Plan”. That may [...]

It’s hot. Very hot. I looked up weather.com yesterday and underneath the temperature it said “Very hot”. Geez, thanks for the heads up. I love my home, I really really do. But it was built in 1923 and still has radiators. Radiators mean no central air. No central air means I’m hot. In case I [...]

This post is near and dear to my heart for two reasons: 1) I have on more than one occasion purchased a wedding gift to keep it for myself (side note: it was not purchased off a registry, I strongly dislike when guests purchase off of a registry then don’t give the gift, but it’s [...]

Summer gives you so many opportunities to curl up with a book: on the couch during a thunderstorm, at night in bed with the fan on high, or laying on a blanket in the park. The latter is where I need to be in about 10 minutes while I save space for a concert in [...]

Sorry this post is so, so late today! Last night (my big crazy birthday night) consisted of me hitting up a Cheesecake Factory for dinner (by myself) and falling asleep at 7:30p (I really have no excuse for that except that it felt like 8:30p because of the time change?). As such I didn’t have [...]
