One of the last things I moved from my old apartment were my fire escape pots. The delay was in part because my previous landlord tried to steal the pots for himself … which was less than cute. But now they are back in my possession and where they belong. I have grand visions of…
I’ve lived here for maybe 2 weeks now but it some ways it feels like less and more all at the same time. Like any relationship, we are still learning about each other day by day. The bedroom is phenomenally dark in the mornings. This is great for sleeping but not great for waking up.…
I’m at that point in the moving process where I probably hate you if you ever gave me a present. Why do I have so much stuff? Why doesn’t it look like I’m closer to be doing done? I think I’ve officially given up on the kitchen. I’m now willing to pay the movers to…
About two weeks ago, I bought 20 boxes off Amazon. 10 “office” size and 10 medium. If you count the boxes that they came in, plus a few others I’ve accumulated I think I have 25. I am relatively determined to move in these 25 boxes. I am ONE PERSON. But, I’ll be honest. I’m…
One year ago, I was doing this. I’ve been thinking a fair bit about how I wish I was doing that again… and now. I miss Italy. But, I’ll go back… and I’ll eat just as much gnocchi, prosciutto, and prosecco … if not more. Instead of going to Italy this April, I’ve been filling my…
I’m currently in LA for a few days … and soaking up all that translates to. I went for a run yesterday morning on the beach. I’ve been drinking ice coffee. I talk about the traffic. Those are LA things as far as I’m concerned. But, the best part of going someplace nice and warm……
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…
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’s Fall. And I’m adjusting to it. I always get sad when Summer ends. I remember all the fun adventures. Walks outside. Roofdeck beverages. Endless ice coffees. But then, I remember the Fall means I can wear sweatpants and fleece. And it means brewing an entire pot of coffee on a weekend …. for myself. …
Guys. I’m tired and my apartment is so hot. It’s not even hot outside but I’ve been baking shit for like a long time. Well, not really. But, when your oven is as old as mine it takes a super long time to get to 400 F. God help you if you want to get…
