This past week has seen me spending a lot of unexpected time in and around various small towns in Connecticut. My dear little Oliver, as rambunctious as ever, apparently took a tumble while racing around over the long weekend that resulted in a dental/mouth injury that required a couple of follow-ups and surgical intervention as […]
Every once in a while, I like to do a little experiment here on ‘Coffee & Chiffon’ when it comes to featuring beloved local (and occasionally not-so-local) hotspots. That experiment, entitled “Operation: Once The Influencers Leave” is pretty self-explanatory. I visit a place that had previously been overrun with people trying to capture/share a photo […]
I am an advocate and activist when it comes to celebrating life’s little wins and accomplishments with a “Sweet Treat.” Made it through a tough day at work? Sweet treat. Ran all of your errands without procrastinating (too much?) Sweet treat. The forecast called for rain but the sun is shining instead? Sweet treat. Life […]
Greetings from the middle of yet another blizzard here in the Northeast!

Now that February is officially underway, I’m all about Valentine’s Day and Galentine’s Day plans and preparations. I’ve picked up the perfect card for my boyfriend, am putting the finishing touches on a couple of very cute outfits, and am getting ready for some wine and charcuterie at a vineyard outing I have planned within […]
It’s kind of wild, but mostly funny to think about my trips to Las Vegas throughout my early twenties – where the only places I’d ever frequent regularly were the Strip or Fremont Street regardless of the size of the crowds or the length of the lines that developed depending on the occasion/event, or holiday.

Greetings from Las Vegas, Nevada – and Happy September 1st! These last couple of days have been spent with plenty of sunshine (and I do mean plenty of it!) great food, visiting some of my favorite places in town, and getting absolutely spoiled by Troy. While I’ll have some photos and a recap to share […]
