-I LOVED reading your comments on my last post!! Thank you!! -Em had her first appointment since the pandemic started and was definitely a bit nervous. It’s so strange going out into the world now because it’s so rare. We had a good time being out just the two of us! -We are heading to the beach soon! We originally planned to go to Jeckyll Island as our big summer trip – although we cancelled our plans to stay at…
After sittin around in Atlanta and not being able to get anything done around the house, I’ve been a machine this week. I completely reorganized my kitchen cabinets, scrubbed the bathtub on my hands and knees, and got rid of some old clothes while improving some of the cheap hangers in my closet. And I put every CD I’ve ever owned into iTunes. This.took.forever. But it was a fun project because I got to listen to some classics. I’ve also…
Hello, Hello. I’m just getting around to posting because I’ve been busy as a bee today. Matt was out of town at his 5 year college reunion so I had planned on doing a lot of lounging around. I started the lounging with a rum, triple sec, and lemonade cocktail creation (the only options in house) on Saturday, which was surprisingly fantastic. And a good ole helping of veggie burger + fries for dinner. Plus some amazing graduation cake from…
A little advice from my experienced sister, aka katheats — When Larbs asked me to do a guest post for her this week about making the most of life while working at a desk job, my immediate answer was “But I don’t work one! I left mine for a different career!” But then she reminded me that last year I completed a six month dietetic internship, where I had to work full time in four different rotations while still keeping…
Today was essentially the opposite of yesterday – I quickly knocked out the gym and came home and got sooo much accomplished! There’s been a pile of reject clothing in the corner of my room for a while and I finally got around to washing all the items so I can get rid of them! While I was on the project, I also cleaned out some other areas and ended up with three huge bags of old purses, shoes, and…
I’m home sweet home in chilly but cozy Boston. Let’s see, where did I leave off? Oh yes, another delightful meal. I ate really well on this trip:) After some exercise in Charlottesville (I biked while they ran), we headed out to a cute bakery/cafe for lunch. Matt and I split a big bowl of veggie chili for lunch …along with a shrimp and herb cream cheese omelet with gouda cheese grits. Kath encouraged us to get a biscuit because…
It’s so cold outside, but these flowers have been warming up my apartment all week. I’m not used to have something so delightful in my living room. Today was great. I felt normal, got a lot accomplished at work (including finishing my first report!), and I enjoyed some free time at home. I also got re-aquatinted with the gym with an unexpected and surprisingly enjoyable run on the treadmill. Tomorrow, I’m headed to a bullying conference in the ‘burbs. Is…
I don’t iron. The last time I used my iron, I burned a hole in my carpet and then ironed the gooey burnt carpet onto a shirt. I usually throw anything with wrinkles into my dryer right before I put it on and it works just fine. However, Matt and I decided to do a load of delicates (aka nice clothes we never wash) and they came out in a big ball of tight wrinkles. So, today was the day.…
I’m a student, a babysitter, and an intern. I eat a lot of bars. What can I say…they’re convenient. Aside from not being very filling, bars are expensive. And, the cheap ones have scary ingredients. So, given the circumstances of this whole internship thing, I thought it was time I made my own bars. Well…they weren’t really my own bars, I obviously got the recipe here. I choose walnuts and raisins as my fillers… and then mixed the wet with…
