So, at this point… its obvious that I’m in love with the North End … right? If not, please re-read any post subsequent to say November 1st. Well today is the anniversary of the Boston Molasses Disaster…. which took place in 1919. It was a very unfortunate event in which 21 people died and 150…
Yep, that glorious looking piece of quiche is my breakfast. And, it’s as good as it looks. I’m sitting with baby sister at one of the coffee shops in the North End, Boston Common Coffee, and we are just having some “quiet” time. It’s pretty great. Plus I’m wearing one of my favorite fleeces. Normally…
I (might) have a new favorite view. And it’s in a very unexpected location. A tourist location. And, I am not a fan of tourists. Weird right? But it’s gorgeous as you can see… and I didn’t Instagram that at all (unlike I did the other day). Since it’s been bananas cold in Boston the…
It got cold in Boston these last few days. Very cold. So cold, I haven’t run a lick. I’m going crazy. Wearing my wool socks seems no longer enough protection against the cold. I also moderately (significantly) refuse to turn on my heat. Quick mind flash to the window sealing kit… ok, now seems like…
I haven’t made anything myself recently … at least that I both remembered to take pictures of … and was worth writing about. It’s been a busy month or so apparently. I ended up working from home today and while that was super awesome…. it makes one a little bit stir crazy at times. I…
I’m warning you right now. This is a slightly picture heavy post. If you don’t like pictures, you should probably stop reading. For the last day of my vacation, I elected to squeeze in some more history. I’ll write about those days later but for now I want to be timely…. and I’m a little…
Another year on the books. Happy New Year. 2012 for real. There are so many things worth writing about these days … like so many. I’ve been on “vacation” essentially and it’s been awesome. Since Christmas I’ve done a lot of exploring new local sites. I’ve done a serious amount of coffee drinking. I solid…
My apartment is crooked. I knew this. You knew this. Hell, I tell everyone about it because I think its charming. Plus, in the event I drop anything that rolls… I know where to look for it. How many people can say that is a feature of their apartment? Well, I didn’t think my beloved…
Oh Boston. You and your gorgeous night lights are my vice currently. I’m a little confused by the fact that it hasn’t snowed yet – but I’m still loving this weather. Last week I invested in some super warm running pants and even cooler gloves from South End Athletic Company… since then I can’t get…
As I write this I’m tucked into my cozy bed, gazing at my Christmas tree and finishing a glass of red wine. Oh, and I’m interwebing to some Spotify-ied Christmas Jazz music. Can’t beat this. Whenever the weekend approaches, I make a list of all the things I want / need to accomplish before I…
