“You’ve been doing house stuff for the last two weeks” a friend complained. “I’ve only been home for two weeks.” The past two weeks have indeed been all about my house, but it’s finally coming together! The design inspiration post is coming next week, but suffice it to say that my taste is, as always,…
I mean, it’s perfect. I debated what to do with this kitchen alcove/nook, but making it a coffee bar was definitely the right move. Thanks in no small part to the most amazing, badass, delicious drip coffee maker of ever, that I just got after coveting my facebook girlfriend for life’s for years… It’s the Zojirushi…

The Handmaid’s Tale is absolutely horrifying but captivating (I’ve been binge-watching on a free trial of hulu). The next…
It has been a WEEK. Hence, the image to the left, which is how I feel right now. Last weekend, one of my best spuds was here and that was awesome. We achieved a great combination of doing things and not doing things, and it is always awesome to hang out with someone and just…
