Brunches and Bookstores…

The week is shaping up to be a pretty busy one for me, not only because we have another snowstorm on the way in the coming days ahead, but because Troy is visiting from California for a bit and I’ve been getting my apartment and schedule sorted out to welcome him back. We’ve been making […]

Snowy Strolls and Pizza Slices

Pre-pandemic, whenever it would snow- I would almost always go out of my way to avoid being outdoors. Despite being a born and raised New Englander, I’ve never done well in cold temperatures.

Super Bowls and Valentines…

What an exciting and busy past few days it’s been, filled with friends, family, food and football! With the regular NFL season done and in the books until the Fall (which is right around the time I’ll be finished paying off the money the Chiefs cost me on Sunday night!) I’ll have to find other […]

Dinner For Two: Rigatoni with Vodka Sauce

The Monday between a Super Bowl and Valentine’s Day is, in a word- brutal. Many of us are still recovering from a late night of nachos and chicken wings and know that in just a few short hours we’re going to be putting on our reds or pinks and diving into date nights or overpriced […]
