You may or may not have noticed that I haven’t been cooking …. pretty much at all. There are probably a few reasons for this of which none are really valid. Sometimes an english muffin just feels right and sometimes I don’t feel like doing dishes and sometimes it’s just too warm out. For example,…
In about a month I will be turning 30. That means I’ll have been around for 3 complete runs of the series Friends – which was on for 10 seasons. I’ve been thinking about turning the big 3 times 10 for about 8 months I would say. I’ve even gone so far as to take…
This is a story of how I killed the yeast and brought it back to life. There is only one picture of the entire thing because I was quite convinced the entire time it was a slow moving car accident. Over the past few weeks, I have been attempting to purge my apartment of things…
There was most certainly a point in my life when I considered flowers a waste of money. While I most certainly meant that at the time, it could not be further from the truth now. Yesterday I bought myself these peonies from Trader Joes along with some other necessities like naan, frozen tuna steaks, and…
Two years ago I met someone who told me they collected postcards off eBay. Vintage postcards of their favorite place in the world, Christmas Cove. Instantly I was intrigued and thought it was an amazing idea … and also like the most romantic thing ever. If you don’t think so, you must have a heart…
I’ve always been a little enchanted by macarons. They are one of those things that just scream simple elegance – which perhaps is the opposite of how I would describe myself.

Like I mentioned in my Memorial Day wrap-up post, I took a quick little jaunt to the Holly Hill farm in Cohasset over the long weekend. It’s a cute little place that has horses, a goat, buckets of chickens, and a bunny. I’m sure there are other living things as well …. but I’m pretty…
I’ve just eaten about 7 Dove Promises and it’s Wednesday … which means it’s not a long weekend anymore. The weather this Memorial Day weekend could only really be described as bipolar. Pretty much every weather forecaster in Boston is trying to tell us that Memorial Day is the start to summer. For about 70%…
Back in March, I had the occasion to be in NYC with a small group of friends. Being the early riser that I am, I mentally jumped at the opportunity have a little warm breakfast available when people slowly made their way into the kitchen. Thanks to a big ole chili dinner the night before,…
Yes, it’s been far too long in between posts. And while I know that in my own heart, it’s always nice to have someone else remind me. I got this message at work yesterday from my friend’s hubs: “tell whatjendoes that she hasn’t been doing anything” Message received. It’s been a weird and busy few…
