Spicy Pomegranate Brussels Sprouts
If you could’ve known me six years ago you would understand the gravity of me making a brussel sprouts recipe. I mean, I was so fucking picky. The only vegetables in my diet at the time were potatoes (but not sweet potatoes) and carrots (but only prepared certain ways). You would never convince me to eat Brussels. Then in walked Dave Brown. We were actually already friends for a while before this. He had taken me out to dinner one day (as friends) when he was having a bad day and needed company. It was on him because your girl was broke as hell. He took me to this really nice…
Press-ons have improved since the 90s.
Press-on nails: the final frontier These are the voyages of our star-studded cuticles. To continue our mission to adore our manicured hands. To seek out new styles and crystal gel. To boldly vogue like no gal has vogued before. Brownie points for anyone who got that reference and still thinks I’m cool. Evidently I’ve been living under a god damned rock because I had zero clue about press-on nails. I have no idea how this happened. I was watching Rupaul’s Drag Race last night and it dawned on me that drag queens have been clued in for ages. THEIR NAILS CHANGE FOR EVERY OUTFIT. I’ve been living a lie. My…
Silver Sands State Park
Bucket list item #15 – Silver Sands State Park Milford, Connecticut It’s just a small beach front with a little island you can walk to on low tide. Simple. Unassuming. Perfect. I love this kind of day. Those lazy Sundays spent quietly with loved ones in cozy surroundings. There’s something so intimate about a local beach in winter. There are two kinds of people: warm beach types and cold beach fiends. My husband and I love those cold beach days. Crisp winds, cold sand between your toes, a comfy sweater to shield from cool winds and a good book to cuddle up to. Add a lighthouse and it’s downright idyllic.…
Asos Haul January 2020
Why, hello there, lovers! It’s time for my first haul of 2020: Asos edition. I honestly can’t tell you what sort of mood I was in this go around. I just tore through the Asos website, adding cute shit to my cart nimbly bimbly until I was so shocked at the total that I had to delete half of it. I usually approach a haul thinking clearly about outfits, but this time it was all about the pieces I just thought were damn cute. So, here we are! I’m going to jump right in. Orange Jumpsuit: 8/10 Dave would actually give this a 10/10 as this was his favorite piece…
All the Christmas Pajamas
I started this holiday season on the hunt for some new Christmas pjs. It’s a long standing tradition that I need something festive to sleep in for the months of November and December. I finally had to abandon my favorite jammies last year as they were legit tattered. The crotch was no longer and they looked ragged. It had been ages since I replaced my holiday pjs, and I’ll tell you what, a lot has changed since the last time I looked, or perhaps I’m just more shopping savvy. Holy shit, there are an ass ton of adorable Christmas sleepwear and I was overwhelmed. It took me a hot minute…
