Everyone who knows me well knows that I love a good party, and when asked to plan one or assist in the planning of one- be it for a birthday, bachelorette party, Halloween, etc.- I take it very seriously. It may be because of my somewhat meticulous nature and peculiar eye for detail, but I […]
It’s hard to say goodbye to a month that has been so full of fun, friends, adventures, seeing new places and indulging in great food and drinks. I never want it to end, but end it must- and so now, with only a few hours left of June 2023- I wanted to give it a […]
I’ve been talking about doing this since I reached 500 posts here at ‘Coffee & Chiffon’ last month, and because it’s been a minute or two since I’ve had any type of giveaway/contest (I love being able to host them!)– but with work, travel, and Summertime plans being essentially non-stop over these last few weeks- […]
