Today is the Army-Navy game, and this is the first year since 2009 that we won’t be attending. And we aren’t even throwing a game-watching party, since Toby is out of town! Of course, I will probably still wear some blue and gold (and some anchor jewelry), but I wanted to share some of our […]
Lest you think all we did in San Francisco was shop and drink tea (sounds like my normal day…), I wanted to share some of our other photos and activities from our trip. The first night in town, we ate dinner at Wayfare Tavern — Tyler Florence’s restaurant. We started with deviled eggs, then I […]
You KNEW my mom and I were going to go to tea during our girls weekend in San Francisco, right? It looks like there are several places for afternoon tea, but we chose The Rotunda at Neiman Marcus. It was actually a little weird, because my mom made the reservation online and there was some […]
My mom and I went to San Francisco this weekend for a girls weekend of shopping, sightseeing, eating… and more shopping. We actually lived in the Bay area for a few years when I was little, but I was so young that I don’t really remember it. And the last (and only other) time I […]
Some people can wear all black, all the time, and look fabulous. I am not one of those people. It’s not just because I find black a little boring and like to spice things up with bright colors, either. It’s also because I don’t look good without some color near my face — which is […]
It can be a challenge to take the time to read during the holidays, when things tend to get really busy and we’re all spending even more time shopping and baking than usual. But if you’re flying, or going on vacation, or even just trying to relax a bit, this can be a perfect time […]
It’s Nov. 30, which means it’s the end of National Blog Post Month. You may have noticed that I’ve posted every day this month except Nov. 27. I hope it wasn’t too annoying for you. It was definitely a challenge for me to find or make enough things to post, and some bum recipes (combined […]
This is the kind of outfit that really isn’t necessary in San Diego, but perfect for a snowy Thanksgiving in Detroit. I’m not a fan of cold weather, but I do love warm, fuzzy flannels, wooly sweaters and boots. Especially when the sweater is bedazzled and the boots are covered in flowers. As you know, […]
We went from a sunny 70 degrees to 23 degrees in just a few hours yesterday… and somehow managed to run 6.2 miles in the snow this morning without slipping and falling. And I got to wear my tutu! I got some compliments on the tutu while I was running, and while it did […]
I was going to do a post today about pumpkin pie marshmallows… but that recipe needs a bit more work. Sorry. Instead, how about some ideas for what to do with the leftover turkey, cranberry sauce and other delicious Thanksgiving dinner foods? That way, you can pick up any ingredients you need before turkey day. […]
