Merry (Almost) Christmas, everyone! As we prepare to head into the long holiday weekend, and that weird, limbo-like space of time between Christmas and New Years, and before I share my annual year-end “Wrap-Up” posts next week- I wanted to look back on some of my favorite items/products, purchases and gifts from this past month! […]
When preparing to attend this past weekend’s Victorian Stroll in Troy, New York with Dan and his parents, and after looking through my closet and storage, I realized I don’t actually own any Victorian-era-inspired pieces (any corsets I possess are not exactly Winter wear!) and so I opted for the next best thing- something that […]
With Thanksgiving (and many Friendsgivings!) fast approaching, maybe even a little faster than I’m ready for, I knew I wanted to contribute something that was not only delicious for everyone- but also wouldn’t take a whole day to prepare or cost a fortune for the ingredients.

Although I’ve got my usual “end of the month wrap-up” posts lined up a little later on this week, including sharing some of my favorite things/products and highlights from these past few weeks- it’s worth mentioning (again) that I can’t believe the month is nearly over! Spring is struggling to break free of Winter’s icy […]
After a couple days of warmer temperatures and a little sunshine, we got slammed with another Nor’easter earlier this week that I’m still trying to shovel myself out of. The first day of Spring might be this coming weekend, but Winter is definitely not going to leave quietly! It looks like my snow boots are […]
Pre-pandemic, whenever it would snow- I would almost always go out of my way to avoid being outdoors. Despite being a born and raised New Englander, I’ve never done well in cold temperatures. I much prefer watching the snow fall from out my window and from the comforts of my couch while I’m wrapped in […]
