Christmas is over, the tree is sadly dragged to the curb, the decorations are put away. The house feels a little empty now. Despite all this, we found some time for a little more Chrirstmas cheer in the form of the Broome County Festival of Lights. We obviously started with some hot chocolate, we tuned […]
I hope you had a Happy New Year. I spent New Years Eve playing Quidditch Pong with my husband and New Years Day walking the empty streets of Corning, NY with my Mom. Saturday I celebrated Christmas with my immediate family and met my new niece for the first time. We opened presents and ate […]
Guys, I have a confession to make. I’m one of those people that LOVES Christmas. Like by the time October hits, I’m ready for the decorations, the tree, the music, and entirely too many cookies. I plan my Christmas shopping all year long. I drink what can only be considered an inappropriate amount of eggnog […]
Sometimes you just need to go on an adventure. Even if it’s a dumb one. If you’ve been following along you know that me and my husband bought a travel trailer over the summer. We’re hoping to be able to travel more often and with a pandemic in full swing, what safer way is there […]
I have too many fresh vegetables. Really, I’m kind of stressing about it. It’s my own fault, there’s something about fresh vegetables in the summer that makes me snatch magpie like an anything green as if it were gold.

I don’t know if you guys know this, but the original Star Wars trilogy are probably the greatest movies of all time. I also don’t know if you know that May 4th is the world’s unofficial Star Wars Day (because May the 4th be with you–get it??) This Star Wars day I had planned a […]
Today it was cold and rainy. I don’t mean like a little drizzle. I mean RAINY. Like the dog just holds his bladder all day rather than get soaked while peeing. Like our garbage cans of sticks that we put out to the curb on Sunday nights are 10 pounds heavier with rain water. Like […]
Happy Easter! My cousin sent me this article which is a great read if you have a few minutes. My question for him was “Do you have any plans for doing things differently/changing things when it starts going back to “normal”?” I have that question for myself as well. And I don’t have an answer […]
Today I was thinking that you’re only ever one day away from the worst news of your life. A global pandemic has essentially shut down life as we know it, a family friend just found out he has a brain tumor, a co-worker’s mom just had a heart attack, an acquaintance just committed suicide, a […]
What is there to say about all this COVID-19 business that hasn’t already been said? Life in a pandemic goes on much the same as regular life. Well, with a few small differences. I went to work I got a haircut at my local hairdresser. I went to kickboxing class I got rolls at my […]
