I could write a love letter to the weekend. Any weekend, really. Those magical two days of mental bliss. No work stress, no “office hours.” Just relaxation and fun. Maybe a little sleeping in, maybe an adventure or two. I live for these days (and must work to fund them, but as the saying goes, […]
Friday is my favorite day of the week and today I have extra reason to celebrate because we have a fun weekend ahead! We are headed to New Orleans for a few days with my in-laws and I can’t wait to relax in the Big Easy. Not to mention all that amazing food! It’s been 18 […]
As a couple who has traveled quite a bit (19 countries and counting), my husband and I are always kicking around ideas of where we would like to visit next. The conversation usually starts before we’ve even returned home from a trip. Seeing the world is something that puts life into our veins. It helps […]
I love brunch. Just the thought of having an array of sweet and savory dishes plus coffee and cocktails has me workin’ for the weekend. Brunch is a much-loved tradition.

We had a little Valentine’s celebration at home but also made reservations with some friends for a fun night out. I already know that […]
So, you’re just a day or so away from embarking on your dream trip and now you actually have to pack. Nothing sucks the fun out of traveling like packing. At least, that’s how I’ve always felt. But packing is a lot like perfecting a talent – practice makes perfect. Over the years I’ve learned […]
How is it already mid-May? It’s this time of year that has us consistently heading outdoors. It’s not super hot yet, with mornings and evenings still cool and breezy, so you’ll find us living on a patio sipping on something. It’s been a while since I’ve posted because we’ve had some really fun weekend things […]
