Happy February! …five days in. And don’t look at me like that – this mixtape is the furthest from over-the-top sap. Matter of fact, it’s hardly about love or loving or lovers at all! (minus Gillian’s song My First Lover, which isn’t even romantic, but simply incredible and everyone must store this song somewhere in […]
Happy New Yeaaaaaaar! Let’s ease into this thing, ‘mkay? Last year I left you with music, and this year, I’m welcoming you back with music! It’s the only way. That and, I got lazy yesterday and didn’t want to edit a recipe. (WHERE ARE EMOJIS WHEN YOU NEED THEM.) How was your break? Too long? […]
HO HO HOOOOOOOw did I almost not make you a mixtape this Christmas? How? How. Because this whole time I’ve even mourning in my head and out loud to everyone, ” I can’t top last year. I can’t. There’s no way. I’m done. Throwing in the towel. Handin’ in my keys.” But you guys. I […]
We made it to the ’embers! Which is what I feel like I say every year on this day at this time to your face. Today the gremlins go back to preschool. Second year. AND I AM FOAMING-AT-THE-MOUTH EXCITED. One, for all that ish they’re gonna learn and become super smart and prepped for Kindergarten, […]
Or in other words, my birth decade! Birth decade? The decade I was born. 1976. In August. This month. Never mind. It’s my birthday month! WHO HERE . . . (I sound like Tig Notaro. “WHO HERE . . . actually believes . . . that the Indigo Girls are here?”) starts getting the tiniest […]
No, this photo has nothing to do with a road trip, why do you ask? Truth is, I just like it! AND THAT IS RARE. I put it in Stories the other day, and a shocking number of people said, “Shame on you, Ma’am! Put that somewhere permanent!” Well, if I must. Even if it […]
WELL THAT TOOK LONG ENOUGH, SPRING. But you’re here! You’re finally, finally here. And I welcome you with open all the things. So listen! I just got back from NYC, and my house is a complete train wreck. So I won’t keep you long. (You’re welcome?) But I wanted to give your ear holes some […]
APRIL. (<—although right now it feels like Decemberrrrwaaaaaaahhhhhh.) But I’m fine. I’ll be fine. It’s fine. This photo ^^ is from our weekend Easter getaway to Fayetteville. It was warm during that very moment. The sun was shining. The blooms were singing in harmony and the flowers were wiggling with jubilation in the warm soil. […]
At least I think that’s how the saying goes. HOW IS IT MARCH? I know I say this every month, but – HOW. IS. IT. MARCH. Not that I’m wishing for January again. Hayell naw. I’ve been following the weather forecast on an extra psychotic level lately, and it APPEARS, and I don’t want to […]
One month down, 11 to go! Not that I’m counting. How do you feel about February? It’s totally a weird month, right? It’s like, V COLD. But spring is on the radar. It’s the month of luuuuv, but you’re also starting to wrap your head around the reality of death taxes. Which is a buzz […]
