I had a wonderful weekend in the Gateway City, filled with family, food and fun. As I hinted at in my last post, I had the opportunity to meet a very special someone: my cousin Lisa’s daughter, Morgan! I had not been back to St. Louis since the baby shower and could not wait to […]

Keeping Things Pinterest-ing
Happy February! I’m thrilled to share that I will be participating in #FebPhotoADay, a challenge I came across on – did you guess it? – Pinterest the other day, and have been excited for ever since. Here is what I’ll be documenting over the next 29 days. Today was reserved for my view. Though it’s […]
Crofton On Wells
I’m glad you all enjoyed my 2012 book list! Looking forward to crossing off some stellar reads. My weekend was filled with a lot of writing (some new thoughts and direction on my book have me very excited). On Saturday, Bobby and I took a break from our to-dos and visited Crofton On Wells.

Do You Fondue?
Why yes, yes I do. 🙂 Actually, I had never been to a fondue restaurant until Sunday night. My friend Lauren recently spotted a Groupon for Geja’s Cafe, a Lincoln Park area restaurant known not only for their amorous atmosphere (which we found amusing) but also their amazingly melted foods. Unfortunately, the dim lighting left […]

I know there will be plenty more to talk about as these changes continue to be proposed, and I truly appreciated the discussion. My readers are amazing! We’ve had a very low key weekend here, which has been wonderful. […]
Dinner + A Movie
I’m currently blogging from a wi-fi zone in my building. It’s wonderful that they have it, but not quite so wonderful that our wireless has been down since Friday. What started as an apartment-wide issue transformed into a apartment-specific issue as of Monday morning, and the technician can’t come out until Wednesday. It wouldn’t be […]
I Miss…
I mean, really. Who wouldn’t miss this smile, and the laugh that comes along with it? I am finally back in Chicago after a wonderful (almost) two weeks with family. As always, it was bittersweet to say goodbye to Arizona, wildlife and sunsets included. I miss it already. We enjoyed some delicious meals during the […]
‘Tis the Season
What a week! Between the gorgeous Arizona weather and quality time with family, I am one happy girl. Bobby and I arrived on the 23rd, and it has been a whirlwind ever since. The festivities began just before sunset on Christmas Eve, when Bobby, Papa Bender, Eric and I ventured out for a scenic mountain […]
