I stopped making New Year's resolutions a few years ago, and instead began focusing on a word or phrase that would carry me through the year. In 2021, it was a toast "To Your Health." I thought it meant I'd be on the Peloton every day, watching my diet, and losing a few pounds. As it turns out, ...
Cheers to 2022
The last couple of years have been a little difficult to say the least! I'm wishing you the best this year. Whether you were surrounded by loved ones and bottles of Champagne, or if you were snuggled at home alone with a book watching the ball drop, I hope that this calendar flip brings us a ...
A Note on Cheese Week
There was a meme floating around the internet a few years ago with two stick figures side by side. One was smiling, wearing a Santa hat, and above, it read "December 1st-25th: Festive!" The other was slightly plump and holding a block of cheese with a miserable look on his face. Above, it said ...
Merry Christmas
From Bryan and I to you, Best Wishes for a beautiful holiday.

4th Quarter Reads
The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson: I picked this one up online after watching the Hill House mini series on Netflix. I'd seen the movie The Haunting in the 90's and was a fan of it for sure, and the mini series was great (and very, very well cast), but had never read the classic book. ...

I'm big on paper products. I don't mean that I hoard toilet tissue, but I take my stationery very seriously. Whether it's working with Lisa at Missive Press to make sure my personal note cards are always stocked and accurate, or choosing just the right thank you notes, I think that there are a few ...
Our Christmas Table
I believe that it was 3 years ago (maybe 4) that we bought every black and white buffalo check item that Pottery Barn released around the holidays. From salad plates to pillow shams, throw blankets and bed blankets, what gets the most use is the napkins.
Our house is- admittedly- a little ...
Deck the Halls
I'm sorry to report that my hall decking isn't the best this year. I'm continuously surprised how much larger this house is than our townhome, and that's never been more apparent than the weekend after Thanksgiving when I pulled out all of our holiday decor and didn't have nearly as much as I ...
Steam Heat
I. Hate. Ironing.
I don't know why. I have fond smells of standing in the basement laundry room at my grandparents' house, chatting with my grandma as she went through all the laundry for the week. My grandpa was one of those older gentlemen that wore a collared shirt every single day. No ...
