Hey my friends! Over the next month and a half I have not one, not two, but FOUR weddings to attend. Plus necessary other-events that go along with them (showers and the like). Tonight is one such event (Bachelorette partay, actually). So! This will be so short. I will give you some points to ponder.Continue reading "Lotsa Pope and a little bit of clothes"
We laughed a lot this weekend
Full confession: I haven't straight-read any of St. Benedict's stuff. But I did read Mama Monk's series and a book called "Radical Hospitality" and if I ever got a tattoo I would get the St. Benedict's medal on my back. (For the record, I would also get that little cross tatted into my wrist ifContinue reading "We laughed a lot this weekend"
Stuff I’ve been working on
Here is a picture of Paul doing garbage stuff. This morning he took the trash out and this afternoon he took it back. No one asked. Bam. Adulthood. Thanks, Paw. Paul and I are the only normal-job ones in the Casa. My dad kind of counts, but he also kind of doesn't considering he earns,Continue reading "Stuff I’ve been working on"
What I Wore Wednesday
Sooo, I wore that same sweater last Wednesday, too, but didn't realize until I already had it on. You know what? It's a good sweater, colored blue like my eyes. I appreciate the sensible side (cardigan! 3/4 sleeves!) but also the lady-like bow. That skirt is tried and true. Versitle, classy, GREAT lines, neutral shade.Continue reading "What I Wore Wednesday"
A list of things that are beautiful. By me.
I'm admittedly the only person on the internet who isn't like, "Hooray, fall!!11! I love sweaters!!" because, while I respect your love of sweaters, I REALLY LIKE SLEEVELESS TANKS. I love going outside barefoot. I love feeling sunlight warm my skin. I love simple life and simple living. Summmmahtiiiime and the living in eaaasy! But,Continue reading "A list of things that are beautiful. By me."
Saturday in Stratford!
Yaaaay yay yay! Saturday in Stratford! We started out in the morning and didn't return until 2 a.m. the next night...but it was super fun. We saw two plays, both purchased because there was an online deal, although I was actually interested in seeing Measure for Measure. So we saw Measure for Measure, a ShakespeareContinue reading "Saturday in Stratford!"
Saturday of fun
I made this. My mom doesn't really like it. I kind of like it, though. It's like a simplistic version of the St. Benedict medal.
What I did Thursday
So, it's pretty likely that I have funny, talented friends and that someone approached me and was like, "Hey, I'm throwing an event. Could your improv troupe come and perform?" And I was all, "Ummm, I don't really have an improv troupe...but, OK!" And then I picked some of my favorite teammates and asked ifContinue reading "What I did Thursday"
What I Wore Wednesday
Today I'm wearing a vintage dress I bought at a church rummage sale. The fabric is light and summer; it's covered in outdated-yellow polka dots that are speckled with an occasional teal. I think this dress is fantastic, even though it isn't a perfect fit. The light-weight material is PERFECT for the summer. The flowContinue reading "What I Wore Wednesday"
Five Wedding Shower pointers from the Flower Girl
I feel like I could have earned the girl scout badge for wedding-participation this weekend. Shower on Friday, wedding stuff day on Saturday, another shower on Sunday. That's three couples/ three weddings...one weekend! Now, I attend the wedding showers with my dear sister Christine. In true form, we usually attend and then chat out ourContinue reading "Five Wedding Shower pointers from the Flower Girl"
