Oh, sweet readers. You've heard me say that aside from Derby, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I love full days of friends stopping by with bottles of wine, never-ending rounds of Trivial Pursuit, questions of "want another piece of pie?" It's been- especially the last few years that the man ...
Our Home: Before and After
Yesterday, the man and I woke rather early and watched for several hours as all of our possessions were loaded onto a moving truck to head across town to our new home.
The last view I had of our old house- freshly painted, shiny, and perfect- was a striking contrast to where we moved in... A ...
Back on the Horse
Greetings my sweet readers, and if you're still there, tuned in, thank you. It's no secret that this summer has been ridiculously difficult on us all. Between the fright and worry surrounding Covid, the intensity of race relations in the light of recent events, and a general feeling that we are ...
To all the Derbys we’ve Loved Before…
Wednesday, I took the opportunity to deliver some homemade Bourbon Balls to several of my agents throughout the Louisville area. My morning took me from the inset of our neighborhood in St. Matthews, out past Goshen and into Pleasureville. As is often common of Spring in Kentucky, the weather ...
A Little Quarantine, A Little Hope
How does one get their thoughts down on what's affecting the world right now?
It seems strange that only a few weeks ago, my biggest worry was whether or not I could survive a master bathroom makeover (which I'll update you on soon) and what to wear to Derby (a worry now moot). Suddenly, our ...

My company, Semonin Realtors, calls home a full floor in a chic, modern building in Louisville's East End. Last year, as we shifted a few offices and and desk spaces around, I was fortunate to move into a corner office overlooking the parking lot on one side, and a large, deer-filled field on the ...
Our Wedding: Rye on Market
This is my last wedding post, I promise, and I promise also that it will be a short one.
Bryan and I went back and forth on whether or not to have any sort of public celebration for ourselves. Getting away to Chicago for several days and having the quiet time there we had hoped for was ...
But What if it Were Palm Springs?
I mentioned a couple of weeks ago in our wedding story that Bryan and I sort of thought about two potential wedding scenarios: Chicago at Christmastime and Palm Springs at the end of summer. While I'd always had a vision in my head fo what a Chicago wedding would look like, it took some time, some ...
Derby: 100 Days Out
This year, at Derby, we have an issue. A big issue. My beloved ladies at The Hat Girls have relocated... and they're only a few blocks away from my house instead of on the other side of town. This is dangerous for my bank account.
I realize I just said that I needed nothing as a resolve this ...
