A Whimsical Adventure…

It’s not very often my boyfriend Troy and I get the same weekday off from our respective jobs unless we plan for quite some time in advance. While I’m usually a strict Monday through Friday girl with my weekends off for me to make plans and arrangements, his schedule rotates and evolves, so we usually […]

Wine Flights and Time Capsules…

Anytime a weekend includes time with friends, family, good food and some spontaneous adventures (and getting some rest, too, of course!), I consider it a success.

A Day at the Beach and A Day at the Farm…

Every once in a while I’ll see those click-bait headlines come across my social media algorithm that read something like “Legislators Pushing For a Four-Day Work-Week!” or “Politicians Debating Making All Mondays a Federal Holiday!” and although it’ll likely be something I’ll never see in my lifetime (or the next), I wish more than anything […]

“An ocean of violets in bloom…”

Out of all the museums in Boston that I adore, The Museum of Fine Arts is by far one of my favorites. It’s a place I can get lost in for hours as I wander from floor to floor, room to room, and I’m always stumbling upon something new or unique that I’d never seen […]
