Eleanor is my new roommate. She refuses to pay rent but also doesn’t take up much space so … I guess that’s okay. Plus, now at work I can use the phrase “I have a mouth to feed at home!”. I’m not sure if it would be worse for people to realize that mouth belonged…
My mom sent me an email this week articulating that she was tired of the food posts. I mean I guess that’s fair. Especially if you haven’t bought into the Downton Abbey themed meals. Out of the last 12 posts, only one was non-food related … and that was my 500th post. I can’t believe…
I spent this past New Years in Vermont with my friend Meghan. While we were sitting on couches across from each other one morning milking some cups of coffee (or maybe it was evening beers?), I realized that this was the 3rd New Years in row that we’d celebrated together. Then I realized that we’d…
A year ago I visited Norris River Reservation by myself one Fall afternoon. It was pretty great. I told myself that I’d be back soon. Heck, it was really close by and not streneuous … at …. all. Then, I moved to the North End. And when I came home to my parents’ house I…
I’m currently sitting at the airport in …. Ohio / Kentucky. My flight is currently two hours delayed and all I want to do right now is be looking at some Christmas cheer in NYC. Instead, the seat that I found near an electrical outlet is conveniently located near the moving walkway … which announces…
Last night I went to bed with my Christmas lights on in my bedroom. But because I refuse to string a tree with less than 300 lights … it’s a little bit bright. So, I also slept with my eye mask on. You’d think that the mask would negate the lights being on … but…
flashbacks to summer…. and neon tanks. It feels like it’s been awhile since I actually wrote something. Something of value and meaning. I have a lot of thoughts spinning in my head and heart but no real direction for writing them down. Maybe that’ll come to me this weekend. Until then, feel free to noodle…
It feels like I’ve been doing a lot of cooking in the last week. Even now, I’m trying to figure out if it makes sense to make “bagel bombs” this weekend. They sound delicious and pretty much have all my favorite ingredients – carbs, cheese, bacon, and salt. I feel like bagel bombs would make…
This is my weekend in six pictures. Ready set go. The sun through the Cherry Blossom trees in Christopher Columbus Park. I went home on Friday night and thanks to daylight savings and the whole planets rotating…. it was still gloriously light outside. Perfect for a quick stop to see the seals, enjoying the park…
Last night I got home from the airport at 10pm. the previous three nights, I went to dinner at 10 pm. Yep, ladies and gentleman I was a bit of a baller. That is if your definition of a baller is staying up until 1 am, taking cat naps by the pool, and at one point noshing on…
