“Let’s just pretend I move here in September” I said this past weekend, because I haven’t spent much time in Austin since “moving back”. I am grateful, however, for the really awesome friends I have here and the exciting things falling in to place to set me up for a wonderful fall in Austin. But…
An Austinite—home of Yeti—who likes Corkcicle better?! Blasphemy! Yes, all the insulated mugs do their jobs well. THIS one, however, has triple-vacuum sealed layers for 20% more coolness (they say). Here’s why Corkcicle is my fave: Design. The shape is great, and easier to hold, and more distinctive. Sizes. I love their sizes, from the…
This is one of my favorites: As we discussed on Monday, which feels like AGES ago, this has been a freakin’ whirlwind, and while I’d like to be the baby tomato, it doesn’t look to be slowing down any time soon. Maybe I can ketchup in Europe?
Or perhaps dirty hippie. I don’t know, but what I do know is that For Days, a new t-shirt company positively ticks off all of my boxes. They say: With a unique closed loop system, For Days is deeply committed to manufacturing innovation and waste reduction. We empower our members to free themselves from the…

… now I just have to find and frame my undergrad diploma … I’ve gotten a bunch of emails recently from potential Smartly students with questions regarding the Smartly EMBA program, and I love connecting personally with them. I’ve written about it here and here; but I also thought I’d share my generalized feedback on…
Hello from your resident faux celeb. Extra faux celeb-y today, as my work did a profile on me … it’s ridiculous. Also, my dear friend was the video director on it, and this is our conversation after he sent me a sneak peek in advance of the big reveal today… This is particularly sweet for…
When my trekking backpack won’t do, and my ski backpack probably would—it’s done week-long trips in Hawaii and Morocco, after all—my upcoming two-week trip through Europe seems like a great excuse for a new travel backpack. Here are a few I’m eyeing … Adult Backpacking Backpacks Shop packs at this link (NOT affiliate links). Extras:…
“You will never be completely at home again, because part of your heart will always be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place.” I’m really feeling this quote right now (I posted it years ago on my instagram, at the time I…
Nali is happy. I am happy. Content. At peace. San Antonio is awesome, I can’t wait to go back. Low-key July 4th was awesome. VB at Aussie’s was awesome. This weekend is going to be awesome. The Handmaid’s Tale is absolutely horrifying but captivating (I’ve been binge-watching on a free trial of hulu). The next…
