For whatever reason, it feels like the end of the year snuck up on me. We were moving slowly towards Thanksgiving, then- BAM!- here it is, New Year's Eve, and I'm not remotely prepared.
I looked back, just now, at the goals I'd set for myself in the last several years. I found everything from a ...
Holiday Weekend Shopping: The 8 Best Purchases I’ve Made this Year
Featuring two small Louisville-area businesses for your Small Business Saturday support!
Away Weekender- While I don't consider B and I to be globe trotters at all, we do tend to travel quite a bit. From regional baseball tournaments for him, driving a triangle around the midwest a few times a ...
Thanksgiving
A friend and I recently agreed that Thanksgiving was our favorite holiday; when you remove the stories of pilgrims and Natives from the history of it, you're left with a holiday without pretense- simply coming together as friends and family to share a meal.
