Our family loves Christmas. Like for real. We have a forest of Christmas trees that are set-up each year…. and each come with their very own theme. Its for real yo. Christmas for us also means…. sweatpants, snuggling in front of the fire, Netflix, and any other word that emits extreme casual. While I respect…
I love me some Christmas. I love me some pancakes. So naturally, that would lead to Red Velvet pancakes. I’ve been itching to do some baking and (slightly) adventurous cooking these last few weeks … and this morning I did a little bit o that. I have no problem making a bigger dinner for one…
Last night I fell asleep with my Christmas tree lights on …. on purpose. I’m all for saving electricty but I just enjoyed gazing over at my tree from my crazy comfortable bed …. and trying to forget that I had to be up at 4:30 in the morning. I’ve been really busy falling in…
I took this picture yesterday morning on my walk by the beach Yesterday was my last day at my job. I really think its the first job I’ve ever quit. I’ve had a handful of jobs over the years (bookstore employee, lifeguard, auditor, graduate assistant, etc) but I don’t think I’ve honestly ever “quit” really…

I don’t think a bucket list needs to be long or especially challenging but there is something to be said for keeping it fresh. In the spirit of keeping things fresh, here is the evidence of my brainstorming last…
Things that I love. Free thing. Fun things. Geocaching ended up being both. A win win in my book. This past weekend I went geocaching with little brother and ended up having a really great time exploring an area that is incredibly close to my house. I set my sight on one cache in the Whitney and…
Like most people, I have a pretty active work week. I like to think I take mine to the next level by doing it in the big Apple…. but I’m probably being dramatic. One of the best things about the ginormous apple is that it affords me the opportunity to try new things. As a…
Normally on Mondays I am waking up at 5 in the morning to leave for NYC but this Monday I’ll be working from my comfy chair in the comfort of my bedroom. Pure bliss. Another example of pure bliss? The gorgeous weather we had this weekend in Boston. It was a great weekend of home…
so get ready. I f-ing love Christmas. At some point, I’ll write a post with perhaps a top ten list of my reasons but until then you’ll just have to trust me. My family is very laid back when it comes to holidays for the most part – except for Christmas. We love to decorate…
