I can’t believe it’s been well over a year since I last posted here. In fact, I had several drafts started last March – 3 months into 2020, already thinking I had so much to say, but struggled to articulate it well enough to go through with it. I started this blog a few years…
Well, well, well! It’s been a minute since I’ve shared with you all on this blog. Throughout the Fall, I admit that I was more inclined to blog on our wedding website. But alas, the wedding is over. While we will continue to use that site for certain updates, like to share photos from our…
I’ve been meaning to put the metaphorical pen to paper and write this blog post for quite some time. I just keep putting it off because I know what I want to say, but I haven’t been able to figure out how to say it. But on a super rainy (and sometimes sunny) Labor Day,…
I’m not really sure how I want to start this post, or where I want it to go, so if you’re reading this… let’s see how it goes! First of all, Happy Father’s Day to all of the dads and everyone else who should be celebrated or remembered today. Also, praise be to Taylor Swift….

I’m not going to pretend to be an environmentalist, or even to be someone who does literally everything in my power to save the planet. However, I do try, and I know a lot of us out there are doing the best we can. Much like eating well, being kind to the Earth can become…
Long time, no blog, eh? Things have been busy as of late, but I have a lot of good stuff to share with you all, starting with some more recipes. I got some good feedback about the last recipe post, so I thought I’d give the people what they want! I know personally, I follow…
After a long winter of sicknesses and snow, Andy and I decided we needed a date day. Ever since they opened last October, we’ve been wanting to check out Two Ton Brewing. Located in Kenilworth, the brewery is owned by a fellow alumnus of Montclair State, Matt Barbiere (see page 54!). We first met Matt…
Today was a rare, elusive snow day, so I got to spend some time doing stuff around the apartment including mulling some spices and making Weight Watchers desserts. Ya know, the usual stuff. I also got around to writing this little ditty about a few things that are part of my routine lately. Some of…
I love to cook and bake. I love having control over something, obviously. It’s therapeutic and relaxing.

Below are some recipes for meals or treats that…
