Thoughts from a Thursday

Life Ramblings

-I have new books! As soon as I read Jenna’s post, I knew I wanted something good to read over Christmas and New Year’s. I’m currently reading The Blue Bistro, which is set on Nantucket, and I’m loving all the food descriptions. -I also have new icing tips – so excited to make something with giant blobs of icing! -My stomach feels better than it has since last year and my digestive system is…well…working again. I think my Christmas present…

Thoughts from a Thursday

Cooking Ramblings Shopping

-The sun’s out after days and its glorious. Those post-apocalyptic scenarios where the sun doesn’t shine anymore are my worse nightmare. -Matt had to travel this week, so I ate lots of bowls with toppings for dinner. My usual go-to combos over quinoa are: roasted broccoli, nuts, and veggie burger; black beans, corn, roasted sweet potatoes, avocado, salsa; mushrooms, carrots, spicy sausage, and Indian simmer sauce. This new one I had last night was incredible and included cranberries, sweet potatoes…

Wedding Weekly (Slash Monthly): An Update

Twenties Wedding

I haven’t written much about the wedding these past two months because I’ve been working on a lot of little things. Thankfully, all the big stuff is done! The details are my favorite part. Invitations When I first started looking at invitations I couldn’t believe how expensive they are! $600 for a piece of paper with black letterpress cursive? I knew I did not want that, so I went for a more modern and colorful invite from a small business:…

Wedding Weekly: Shoes

Shopping Twenties Wedding

There’s not much happening with wedding planning these days – all the big stuff is done and it’s a little too soon to work on the details. But, I have been dreaming about shoes! I love shoes (I mean, who doesn’t?), but I consider myself a pretty practical shoe shopper – I buy brown, black, and nude flats and comfortable heels, and aside from flip flops and the occasional summer wedge, that’s about it! Some of my friends have hot…

Another Season

Clothing Shopping

Another year, another Labor day; it’s time for that post again. We all love fall clothes, and every year, I take peak at the new arrivals online, and I fall in love. This year? Not so much. I had to actually do some digging and searching to find pieces that felt new and different, and even the picks below don’t feel particularly fall-ish. Perhaps I’m getting too picky or perhaps I need to physically see and touch the items? I…

Off My Shoulders (and Toes)

Clothing

I feel like a huge weight is off my shoulders. I’m finished with all of my assessment cases and IEP meetings. A few more counseling cases to see next week and I’m done and done with this internship. Whew. And it’s [fashion] Friday! I snagged these wooden shoes for $19 with a gift card at Urban. The color isn’t exactly what I was hoping for, but at that price, I couldn’t resist. And this toddler at the retirement party seemed…

Fashion Friday: Sailors + Stripes

Clothing

Good afternoon! I had a nice (but sleepy) day of work and I’m about to head out for drinks with Matt’s coworkers and then dinner at a restaurant I’ve been dying to try. But first, a new purchase I’d like to share with you!!!    I found this striped top when shopping with my grandmother last weekend and just had to have it. Horizontal stripes are everyone these days and they make me happy because they remind me of sailors.…
