I was planning on writing about this adorable and historic little spot at some point in the Fall, since both it’s exterior and interior just scream “cozy season” that are perfect for coffee in a warm sweater on a rainy day or post-pumpkin picking relaxation with friends- but when I found myself driving through Harvard, […]
When my friend and podcast co-host, Stef, told me that her husband was going away for his annual fishing trip with his dad this past weekend, I had suggested we make it a “Girls Weekend” in their absence- even if it meant just having a couple glasses of wine and cooking something together on Saturday […]
