30: This was NaBloPoMo 2019

30: This was NaBloPoMo 2019

Another NaBloPoMo comes to an end. While I would never ever want to always blog daily, November has kind of become a good once-a-year exercise in brain-storming, organizing and writing posts for 30 days in a row. It kinda feels like I have a system down.  It was exciting to see more people joining NaBloPoMo…

29: Monthly Favorites | November

1. I got this Cinnamon Apple Cider candle* at Target. I had bought a similar one there last year and I just love that smell. It’s a perfect scent for fall. 2. I am enjoying a trial subscription of the New Yorker*. There was an ad for a three month trial for $6, including an…

28: Thankful

28: Thankful

Photo by Debby Hudson on Unsplash My friend Stephany posted three sets of prompts for a series of gratitude posts and I thought I’d jump on the bandwagon, because it’s Thanksgiving and a good time to reflect on gratitude. I picked 10 of the 30 original prompts to share with you guys today. 1) I’m most thankful for…

27: Who I am (at the moment)

I have, again, dropped the ball on the ‘who I am (at the moment)’ posts, but today is a good day to change that, don’t you agree? So here’s a little glimpse into my brain these days… I am … … cautiously excited about my work situation, as I will start working on a new…

26: More German Idioms, hooray!

  People have told me in the past that they love these posts, so I’ll make an effort to keep it going (until I run out of fun German idioms, I guess). Enjoy! And make sure you check out the other round-ups of idioms here, here, here, here, and here, here, and here. I’ve always…

25: Holiday Card Roll Call

25: Holiday Card Roll Call

Believe it or not, it’s almost December. I know, some of you have already put up their trees (I’ve seen it on IG, don’t lie to me!) and Christmas decorations and I’ll be getting on that soon.  I’ve been trying to get into preparation mode for the holidays and that also means that it is…

24: Recipe | Light Spinach Pappardelle Alfredo

If you’re looking for a quick, easy and filling weeknight dinner, I have something for you.  It’s no secret that we’re big fans of carbs arounds here. Don’t come at me with your “carbs are bad for you”-lecture, because I don’t subscribe to it. Carbs are life and I will not stop eating them. And…

23: Some Ventura Love

23: Some Ventura Love

Last weekend, Jon and I went down to Southern California to spend some time with Jons family. Jon grew up in Ventura, which – if you’re not familiar – is a beach town between LA and Santa Barbara.  We briefly even lived there when we transitioned from LA back to Sacramento and even though it…

21: What I bought at Trader Joe’s Vol. 10

It can’t believe it’s been a whole year since I last shared some of my favorite items that I’ve bought at Trader Joe’s. We do most of our shopping at Trader Joe’s and even like their produce (maybe that’s because we’re in California and a lot of produce comes from more local sources), and I…
