“Staycation, all I ever wanted…”

Happy New Year, everyone! I’m back home, back at work, and back to blogging here on ‘Coffee & Chiffon’ after a lovely and refreshing long weekend in Boston where I rang in 2024 with great food, a couple of cocktails, and the comfort of satin pajamas as I watched the ball drop from my hotel […]

A Year to Remember: 2023

Happy New Year’s Weekend, everyone! A good indication that someone is getting older is the amount of times they say things like “time flew by,” or “it feels like just yesterday when…” etc., etc. as it relates to days, weeks, months and years.

A Month to Remember: February 2023

February might be the shortest month out of the year- but it is certainly one of the mightiest and most memorable- especially here in the Northeast where we typically get unpredictable weather, fluctuating high/low temperatures and the occasional glimpses into the Springtime in-between Valentine’s Day and the end of the regular football season. There’s a […]

A Few of My Favorite Things: February 2023

You’d never guess by the layer of snow/ice outside my window right now, but we had a few days these past couple of weeks (pre-storm, of course) that truly felt like Spring- with sunshine and higher temperatures that had me removing my jacket and throwing on sneakers instead of my boots. I’m already starting to […]
