It’s that ridiculous time of year in Austin where you WANT it to be fall and it’s just not … you might get some cool mornings, but then we’re back up in the high 90s in the middle of the day. Nonetheless, I’m making pumpkin centerpieces to keep it fall in my house, while updating…
Y’all, I think I forgot to mention my edger. I got an edger fo my birthday, marking two years in a row my parents have given me yard tools, and I could not be happier about it. This is an honest-to-god-edger, that rolls alongside the lawn and cuts deep. I love it. I love taking…

Welp, alongside accidentally ghosting a really important email opportunity (it’s FINE), I also ghosted myself apparently in not publishing my feel good friday. Suffice it to say, the beach was fun… Remember when I lived at the beach? Sigh. Now I drive to it. But in the most hilarious Spirit-airlines inspired back seat, squished between…
As 2020 continues, so the Summa Uv Paddleboards continues… with a Friday night float turned hilarious 3am dance/bumble party wherein two single girls alternately dance it up and swipe on bumble while veeeeeery tipsy on (skinny) margaritas, a great new exploration of the other end of the lake followed by garage beers and Indian food,…
PELOTON!!! That is what I am most grateful for this week. I have ridden it every day since we got it! … made much better by sharing the bike with the neighbros, and the group in Cali cheering me on, working out with me, and sending hilarious group texts. I am tired, it’s been a…
