Hello, August! How did you show up so quickly this year?! I blinked back in February and now it’s August 1. Every month when I work on this post, I remind myself to not repeat the phrase “I love a new month” but I really do love a fresh start. That’s as close as I’m …
Somehow, it’s already the last Sunday of July. I feel like this month took a minute and an entire year all at once. It’s probably because post-Europe vacation makes me happy and exhausted all at once? I feel rejuvenated from taking time away (I still worked on my trip), but also excited for a return …
Happy Sunday, happy Sunday! We’re back on track and back in the groove, officially. I’m at our house in NC, heading back to Charleston tomorrow morning! I came back up midweek last week to go to the most fun stitching event and stayed through the weekend. Today’s agenda: cooking, laundry and the World Cup Final!! …
Bonjour! It’s Monday? Who knows what day it actually is. The days/week post-vacation blur together in a way that I just STRUGGLE with. What a trip was had, though! We started in London, trained to Paris, bopped to Reims and Le Mans and then back to Paris. A HOT trip, with no air conditioning the …
Bonjour! Happy July from Paris, France! We all know I love a new month and a fresh start. Now add that to a vacation and you have a recipe for a sweet treat for me! I’ll be back to Charleston in about ten days and I can’t wait to do all the things Charleston offers …
Oh hello from . . . the airport! I missed this corner of the internet so much the last two weeks but I was in . . . OMAHA.(For reference, I am only saying Omaha like Florence sings FLORIDA in her song with Taylor)I flew out this past Thursday for the NCAA College World Series. …
First Sunday of June, what a treat! I am really leaning into an easy breezy summer, even with everything I have planned and on my calendar. There’s so much to look forward to this summer and I’m so excited for it all. But I’m also excited for lazy(ish) summer days, long al fresco meals and …
Happy June 1!! I’m writing this from the lounge at the Pittsburgh airport, coming back from my West Virginia long weekend (almost a week!). I am so looking forward to June: an aquarium event, longer days, al fresco meals, and finally we leave for London in a few weeks! What are you looking forward to …
Happy last day of MAY! What a month this was! Coming at you from my house in Morgantown, where WVU is hosting an NCAA regional baseball bracket (let’s go!). They need to win at noon today in order to advance (and then win TWO MORE TIMES through Monday). I really love my Morgantown getaway weeks, …
Happy Sunday, happy Sunday! What a dreary few weekends we’ve had in Charleston lately! Chillier weather and rain . . . what?! It makes me want to hibernate, but I’m not the best at hibernating and doing nothing (not new news). This week was another packed week with work & play, and the weekend was …
