The Knockoff

I have to admit, it's rare that I buy a book solely based on the cover and who's been posting about it on social media. Before long, though, this gorgeous orange spine began popping up all over Instagram, I got a closer look at the Kentucky ...
On Logan
Friday, we had to put Logan to sleep.
I'm sorry that that seems so blunt, but I'm not really sure how else to begin.
We noticed, about a month ago, that almost overnight he seemed to have become an old man. Bryan mentioned having to tighten his collar during a walk. His once very muscular neck was ...
Dinner at the Pump Room
It's rare that a meal solicits a vocal and emotional response from the man. Usually, he eats, carries on conversation with me about one thing or the other, and finishes his dinner. Last week, however, was the first time that food made his eyes open wide, made him have to pause for a minute to take ...
Going Public
Admittedly, I put way too much thought into where to stay while on vacation. There are a few bucket list overnights I'd eventually like to check off (the original Langham in London, Plaza Athenee in Paris, The Pearl in Rosemary Beach), and there are a few, "Oh, we always stay at..." (Cosmopolitan in ...
Papaw’s Cars
I recently stumbled onto a collection of photographs of my Papaw's. My parents hadn't yet cleaned out the two rooms he clamed while living with them, and 5 years after his passing seemed like enough time to let those two rooms sit unused, so the cleaning out process began. In his den, tucked into ...
The Lucky Hat
In 2004, I attended my first Kentucky Derby. I was 20 years old at the time, and my grandma, being the clothing-obsessed gal that she was, decided that I just couldn't walk into Churchill Downs on that super special day without a proper topper. We drove to Louisville one weekend and hit up all of ...
Doris Salcedo at the MCA
Almost every trip to Chicago- or any other city for that matter- I make an effort to take in something I can't get at home. Whether it's as simple as Chicago deep dish (now a tradition) or a production on Broadway, a visit to the Grand Canyon, or simply a sit-and-look of the Eiffel Tower (still on ...
Easter, 2015
The Easter holiday always passes by too quickly. I love the welcome of Spring, the promise of a sweet, glazed ham, flowers on the patio. This year, we were joined by my parents and our Mississippi family (a couple who moved here a couple years ago from the south and have become very best friends), ...
Brunch at Gralehaus
For several weeks, I've been drooling over Gralehaus's Instagram photos of their meal items. Sure, I've stopped in time and again for coffee with clients or cookie crepes and beer with girlfriends, but I'd never actually sat down for full-fledged food until a couple Sundays ago.
The Bryan and ...
