Monthly Favorites | December

1. When I visited my family in May, my sister passed on this Naketano Long Hoodie to me.

I bought one online (from leftover stock) and my sister…

Our Christmas

Our Christmas

The weekend before Christmas, I finally got around to baking some holiday cookies and since it’s just two people eating over here, I stuck with one of our favorite cookies: Vanillekipferl.  Saturday night, we walked the ‘Fabulous 40’s’ to look at all the Christmas lights. It’s always fun to see how many people go all…

December Link Love

December Link Love

Around the Interwebs I found this interesting: The 3 core skills that every person needs for a healthy romantic relationship. The American Dream is killing us. The 2010’s have broken our sense of time. No kidding. I am looking into this: The only five email folders you need. Does someone use this system? I think…

A wish list

A wish list

I admit, I am kinda late putting my wish list out there, haha, but in all honesty, I am not expecting any of this under the Christmas tree. I am just having a little fun. I love the holiday gift guides that are popping up all over the Internet this time of year, and I…

What I read in November

What I read in November

Let me liken my reading routine to a roller coaster, my friends. It’s been going up and down and right and left and I am just hanging on for dear life.  But I lied in my last post. I finished not one, but two books in November. Imagine my delight when I realized that. I…

Our Thanksgiving

Our Thanksgiving

Before we’re midway through December and have all but forgotten about Thanksgiving, let me recap real quick: four glorious days off and nowhere we had to be.  We stayed put over the holiday weekend and it was the best decision. This year, I finally decided to run the “Run to Feed the Hungry” Turkey Trot on…
