I’m leaving today! Can you guess where I’m headed? Source Bobby and I are off to New York City! We are incredibly excited – Bobby has never been there and I’m looking forward to exploring with him, especially at Christmastime! We’ve got a busy agenda courtesy of my best friend Sam. Here’s hoping we can […]
Tidbits and Treats
It’s Christmastime In The City
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and last night Bobby and I celebrated City Christmas! Our tree was decked out rather nicely this year, if I do say so myself. City Christmas is what I have dubbed one of the most fantastic nights of the holiday season – the one where Bobby and […]
Back to December: Three Organizational Tools
How did we get to December again? On this day last year I was posting the first recap of my honeymoon. I suppose our trip does seem like a faraway dream, which helps justify the fact that we are now only a few weeks from a new winter season, two major holidays and, ultimately, needing […]
The “S” Word(s)
There is something so calming about being on one of the many trails in the Arizona desert. If you stop walking and listen at any moment on your hike, you will hear a glorious sound (and see a glorious sight). Silence. (And saguaros.) Maybe it’s because I live in the city, where I am surrounded […]

It’s a big job, and you love it, until one day a letter comes along that you can’t avoid opening. And once you do, you find […]
Traveling Pans: Pansgiving
Pansgiving terminology courtesy of Mara, who has already written a fabulous recap post. The Traveling Pans were at it again Sunday night. This month’s theme: Thanksgiving!

V-I-C-T-O-R-Y
That’s the Wildcats’ battle cry! 🙂 We just returned home from an exciting day at Ryan Field. Northwestern beat the Rice University Owls 28-6! If we can hang on for two more games, we may squeak our way into a bowl game. Fingers crossed! Following our victory, Bobby and I decided to visit an old […]
