Although I was rooting for the 49ers (and specifically, Jimmy Garoppolo,) during last night’s Super Bowl- it was still really fun and pretty intense to watch- and I’m happy for my friends from Kansas City who have been undoubtedly celebrating all night and well into the early hours of this morning. If your team isn’t […]
Another blogging tradition I’ve tried to keep alive and well over the years is reflecting on the month that was as it draws to a conclusion. With tomorrow marking the beginning of February (and Valentine Season-) I wanted to take the opportunity to revisit the past few weeks. I know we’re only in the very […]
When the end of the month approaches, I like to take a little bit of time to share some of the things I particularly liked and enjoyed over the previous weeks.

Every year, when Pantone announces their Color of the Year- I like to try and incorporate it into my daily looks- be it with some new makeup, on-trend accessories, or fun fashion pieces. It’s always exciting (and sometimes even a bit challenging!) to inject a new color into my wardrobe or cosmetics collection- especially when […]
With my birthday just a couple of days away, I admittedly haven’t done much in regards to planning anything special to celebrate. I rarely do when it falls during the week, really- since work and daily responsibilities take precedence over anything else with every year older I get. Gone are the days of disappearing for […]
Although I’ve been living in The Pioneer Valley since May of 2019, I still find myself getting acclimated to my new(ish) community and surroundings. There are so many performance spaces/venues, art galleries, museums, restaurants, shops and oddities to discover around every corner- and I thought that every once in a while it would be fun […]
