Welcome, everyone! My partner and I are officially homeowners and we got to sign our paperwork in a haunted law office. Absolute perfection. We won’t move in for a bit because there’s painting to do and flooring to replace, but I’m feeling very emotional (in a good way) about the whole thing. The notion of not renting anymore and being able to customize whatever I want feels so freeing! The possibilities are endless! I’m also … Continue reading Links: Podcasts, Cheese, & More→
Welcome back, everyone! Brian and I close on a house officially tomorrow! We are so excited, but definitely are having some sticker shock with closing costs + updates we want to do to the house before we move in. However, I’m so excited to start molding and shaping the space into something that feels like ours. My biggest projects: creating a little coffee bar in the kitchen and designed my peachy neon gamer girl paradise … Continue reading Links: Cat Tours, Cross Stitch, & More→
Welcome back to Wednesday Links, everybody! I love hearing about all of your yummy fall foods. I do have to make a point to pick up some candy corn soon. I am an unabashed candy corn and candy pumpkin lover. How do you feel about Halloween candy? Any distinct favorites? For me, fall means lots of dips and soups. I love a soup or a molten lava hot dip with a crunchy little chip. Ugh, … Continue reading Links: Romancing the Vote, Yarn, & More→
Welcome back to Links! Thank you all for the well wishes last week. Engaged life has been great and I’m still basking in the bliss of celebrating with my person. I was also able to usher in the fall season with my first batch of chili! We have a family recipe (it’s nothing fancy) and it really hit the spot, complete with some crusty bread for dunking. Do any of you have a favorite seasonal … Continue reading Links; Fashion, Cat Cafes, & More→
Welcome back to Wednesday Links! How is everyone?! Big news for me, as of Monday, I’m engaged! It’s very exciting. I’m recording the next RT Rewind with Sarah tomorrow and I’m sure I’ll talk all about that. There has been lots of champagne consumption since then and there’s something so particular about a champagne hangover headache, as my now fiancé has learned. I want to thank you all for your exercise suggestions. I know a … Continue reading Links: More Romance Bookstores, Knitting, & More→
Welcome back, everyone! Have the seasons changed yet for you? We’re getting there in New England. We’re certainly in the transitioning stage where it’s cold in the morning, but warms up by midday. I’ve lived here for over a decade and I have yet to master the art of layering. Oh, well! I’m also trying to be more active, but that’s a struggle. Exercise bores me and I haven’t found a method of moving my … Continue reading Links: Music, Glass Blowing, & More→
Welcome back to Links! I very much enjoyed the collective snarking in the comments last week. I love it when a community comes together! For those in the States, I hope you had a pleasant Labor Day weekend. For us, it was mostly a weekend of rotting, jut hanging and vegging out at home. How did you spend your weekend? We’re starting to feel a hint of fall in New England and I am so … Continue reading Links: Cover Songs, Cover Models, & More→
Welcome back to links! How are we all doing? My brother and his wife finally landed back in the States for his new assignment and his wife is speedrunning American franchises. She loves trying out American chains. The biggest hit for her so far has been In-N-Out Burger and she’s discovered she’s not a fan of refried beans. As a reminder, she is Korean and my brother was stationed there for a while. She also … Continue reading Links: Slime, Meet Cute Bookshop, & More→
Welcome back to Wednesday Links! How is everyone doing? If you need some super cute news, I’ve managed to get Fig into a baby sling wrap so I can play video games or do work and still “hold” her. Before, she would yell at me and try to climb up my body until I held her like a baby. Does anyone have similar needy pets that you’ve designed clever little work arounds? I also appreciate … Continue reading Links: Exhibitions, Cat Games, & More→
Welcome back to Wednesday Links! How are we all doing? It is a week of ups and downs for me. My partner and I bought a house – yipee! It happened much quicker than we intended, but of course that comes with all the extra inspections, repairs, closing, etc. It is a lot and I’m incredibly thankful my partner is someone who doesn’t mind getting on the horn to talk to everyone while I swaddle … Continue reading Links: Colleen Hoover, Auctions, & More→
Welcome back to Wednesday Links! I am dragging today, so as you’re reading this, I’m probably brewing an afternoon cup of coffee on this somewhat dreary New England day. My house is also staggeringly devoid of a little biscuit or treat to munch on while drinking. A shame! Do you have a favorite coffee or tea paring? I love hearing about people’s food rituals, especially for more soothing meals or snacks. … Bree Bridges of … Continue reading Links: Embroidery, Dragons, & More→
