Greetings from Milwaukee, Wisconsin! Home of the Cheeseheads! (I’m seriously considering buying a cheesehead hat before I leave Milwaukee. I would totally wear it at home. I <3 cheese.) Thankfully, all of my travels went smoothly today: Home —> Taxi —> Boston —> Detroit —> Milwaukee —> Taxi —> Hotel. Not a single travel hiccup. [...]

Hi, friends! Here’s a little preview of our kitchen. Check out the shelf we hung over the stove for our spices. The previous owners had it on the wall in the living room, but we moved into the kitchen since the black shelf we used to have there no longer matched. Cute, right? Mal and [...]

Seriously delicious dinner last night! I may or may not have eaten it at 4:45 in the afternoon, but, hey, I was hungry. Mal was too, which is why dinner was finished cooking so early in the evening. When I got home from my second NRT appointment (more on that later), I arrived home to [...]

Hi, friends! Happy Tuesday! How was your President’s Day? Mine was really great—here’s a recap!
