A Few of My Favorite Things: May 2024

I only just returned from Maine yesterday evening after what has been an absolutely incredible and action-packed weekend, and am already jumping head-first back into work and all the missed voicemails/e-mails that were received during my slightly-extended holiday absence- but despite how tired and how unmotivated I feel right now (and it should quickly be […]

What’s In My Festival Bag?

Boston Calling kicks off next weekend, and while I’ll only be attending one of the three days of the festival this year as opposed to committing to the whole weekend like I normally do (Troy is visiting, so we’ve made some other plans while he’s in town!) I’m still extremely excited to spend a day […]

Tiki Drinks and Tidying Up…

It’s a late-afternoon post here at ‘Coffee & Chiffon’ which can only mean one thing – your girl is busy, busy, busy! Between an uptick in my caseload at work this week, accommodating my space and schedule for Troy as his extended stay continues here in New England, and trying to stay on top of […]

A Few of My Favorite Things: October 2023

L. M. Montgomery once wrote “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers,” and I’m sure many of us Fall Girls can relate. I know I’m repeating myself, maybe for the hundredth time here on ‘Coffee & Chiffon,’ when I say it is my absolute favorite month out of the year- […]

This Is Halloween, This Is Halloween…

It was only a matter of time, but we’ve come up on the last couple of days of my extended West Coast journey. In a little over 24 hours I’ll be boarding a plane back to New England to ride out the remainder of my vacation before it’s time to return to work, colder weather, […]
