Hey y’all! We’re at Disneyland today, recovering from the Marine Corps ball. I’ll have more photos from the ball tomorrow, but I wanted to make sure everyone was aware of the new, awesome web series about the New York City Ballet, produced by Sarah Jessica Parker. It’s called city.ballet. and I can’t stop watching it! […]
Football was a big deal at my first high school — everyone went to the games, and the players were like celebrities. But even though I wore dresses and heels to school occasionally, Clueless-style, I don’t think I ever wore something like that to a football game. Football-watching attire is jeans and a sweatshirt, right? […]
As I mentioned, we went to Kentucky this past weekend for Toby’s homecoming. It was actually the first time I’ve seen his alma mater — we’ve been wanting to go, but hadn’t been able to until this year, when one of his good friends was being inducted into Centre’s athletic hall of fame. I was […]
I don’t make lasagna very often — in fact, I’ve only made it a few times, ever, and the last time was probably before I even met Toby. But when Toby asked me to make dinner for one of his Marines and his wife (because the wife is pregnant and on bed rest), I thought […]
OK, I know “Chunky Monkey” did not get its name from its power to pack on the pounds. But I also know that the delicious combination of banana ice cream, fudge chunks and walnuts is very hard to resist — and downing a pint is not exactly a ticket to Skinnyville. But, it is one […]
Happy Monday, y’all! We got lucky the other day when we were driving from Northern Kentucky down to Danville for Toby’s homecoming — it was an absolutely perfect day. So we decided to stop near Keeneland and take some photos with the horses. Obviously I was dressed pretty casually — we had brunch at Toby’s […]
If you’ve been near just about any body of water in the United States in the past year or two, you’ve probably seen people standing on boards, paddling around. I’m not sure when it became a thing, but I saw tons of people doing it in Hawaii last year and it’s hugely popular in the […]
Happy Dia de los Muertos! I hope you are celebrating the lives of your loved ones today. We are in Kentucky right now, but we went to a Dia de los Muertos festival in Oceanside last weekend. It was extremely crowded, but really interesting. Plus, we got to explore the gorgeous San Luis Rey mission, […]
Are you a lipstick girl? I feel like I’ve recently heard or read a lot of people saying they don’t like lipstick, but I don’t get it. I’ve loved lipstick since I was a little girl, and while I keep trying lipgloss… I always come back to lipstick (or maybe gloss on top of lipstick). […]
