As August sipped away like a bottle of wine, I closed off the month by attending the Everygirls Rise 2020 Virtual Conference with the Every Girl Media Group and LaMarca Prosecco! From hearing from incredible professionals from Macy’s, Instagram and more to reaching into those who have left the corporate world to start their own … Continue reading Rise Up
I am so freakin' thrilled that for the first time in six (!!) years, I am living in one house for more than a year! Crazy how time flies when I'm not moving state-to-state or changing mailing addresses. With that being said, now that we've lived in our little casita for a year, it was … Continue reading Small Rental Updates
I am back from an exhausting trip to Austin. Exhausting? Correct! Not just from traveling in a pandemic, concerned about every move I made, but also due to my newfound furlough at work and car troubles on my return trip. But that’s not what we’re here for on this fine Wednesday! I am here to … Continue reading I Still Love You
You’ve heard of work-life balance, we all have. Your career & vocation, if they’re lucky enough to be the same thing, are fulfilling and enriching and make going to work a delight every day. Even through stress, you’re able to get your job done and feel satisfied and appreciated. Does that sound crazy? I’m sure … Continue reading Creating with Toxic Coworkers
One of my favorite things in the world is packing up a bag and going on a picnic - whether it’s at the beach or a side stroll in Germany, it’s an incredibly relaxing and peaceful way to spice up a meal or snack. I don’t go on a lot of picnics in the United … Continue reading Packing a Picnic

I had it all planned out - I would work the baseball game on the 17th (my actual birthday) and then G and I were going to meet my family at the Four Seasons and have a relaxing … Continue reading Quarantined Celebration!
When I went to college in 2014, I was stoked to meet the love of my life. Tinder was a thing but Bumble hadn’t quite dropped yet so I was prepared to do it the good-ole-fashioned-way. But, come summer of 2016, I had moved to Austin from Germany and I was ready for all the … Continue reading The Birds & The Bumble
On Saturday, March 14, I received a call from my doctor that said I was at high risk for contracting Coronavirus Disease 2019 or COVID-19. At first, I was terrified for more reasons than one, but mainly because being Vitamin Deficient Anemic means that I don’t create enough red blood cells to fight off serious … Continue reading Coronacation
I’ve always day-dreamed about a cup of iced-coffee, every morning, from a handsomely bearded man. But, until that day happens and as viruses continue to flood the winter season, I’ll take my scorching hot tea with a side of routine. I’ve always struggled with how to make tea, what tea should be drank at what … Continue reading A Cuppa for You & Me
I recently booked a trip to Heidelberg and Paris for a reunion with my best friend before her wedding and a getaway for G’s graduation - so I’ve been feeling super positive about all of the planning. Last year, G and I went on a beach getaway to Puerto Rico and I’m excited to show … Continue reading Like Royalty
