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 Case of The (Birthday) Mondays…

When I told my friends and family that I was going to be at my office on my birthday (today!) nearly all of them said that I was crazy, and that I should have taken the day off to celebrate- or at the very least relax and sleep in for a change. But, there’s really […]

Comforts of Home…

Having spent so much of October away from home and far from the Northeast, and this past weekend being the first “full” few days where I was back in my apartment, in my town, and in my region for an extended period of time- I wanted to do a little more than simply catch up […]

Last Lobsters of The Season…

With a planned trip to New Jersey and the Jersey Shore happening in just a few short days (and I’ve been keeping an eye on Hurricane Lee’s path as it starts to make its way up the East Coast,) this week is all about tying up loose ends at work and with errands/last minute to-dos […]
