When I realized that my babies aka dogs were not going to be in my wedding, let alone at a kennel (albeit a really nice doggie spa called Wagsworth Manor…), I immediately thought, “I need to plan a vacation for them.” They’ve been to North Carolina, our Delaware beaches, Cape May, New Jersey, and lots of places in New England, so obviously their tastes are … Continue reading doggie destinations: virginia is for (dog) lovers
Ever since I decided to start making my costumes, the world of possibilities has seemed endless. I usually start planning the following year’s ensemble November 1st (or really October 28th if I’m being honest), and then force Craig into some male counterpart that he never wants to be, but does because he loves me. We’ve been a Tiffany’s box and gemologist (Craig thought he was … Continue reading toy story: halloween edition
Let me just preface this by saying this is not really a political post, but more just a commentary on the dumb AF terms floating around the internet. My philosophy about parties is to host them, not choose one. My mom was a rabid Republican with socially liberal views, so I grew up learning to strongly examine and support values on both sides of the … Continue reading Political terms im sick of
Thanksgiving is a great time to gather with friends and loved ones. Since I stopped eating meat this year, I was faced with the challenge of creating a vegetarian menu that would still make you hate yourself the next day. I invited some friends over for a fanciful feast, and they quickly discovered, like most events I throw, it was all for the blog. The … Continue reading a fabulous friendsgiving
For the past two years, I have been holding a pumpkin carving party prior to Halloween. It’s a great event for everyone to get together, eat, drink and show off their creative sides, AND you get to leave with your very own pumpkin. Here’s how I threw it together… Food: Chili bar with toppings: I recently went vegetarian, but am known for having delicious chili at my fall … Continue reading the pumpkin princess
My friend Jill has dreamed about a vintage Alice in Wonderland tea party since she was little, so for her bridal shower we decided to do just that! Even though the weather is a little iffy in late September, we lucked out and had a gorgeous garden party, with plenty of treats and tea to be had by all! Food & Drink: We set up … Continue reading we’re all mad here
If everyone made an effort to eliminate meat from their diet for one full day a week, we could reduce our risk of cancer, conserve water and save a whole lot of animals…just in one day! Meatless Monday is a movement to encourage people to try a vegetarian lifestyle for one whole day…easy right? Not if you love love love meat (that’s me BTW). But … Continue reading vegetarian vixen
My friend Jill is getting married this October, so we had to give her an amazing send off before she gets her ball and chain. Jill has an affinity for all things glittery, so we threw an ultimate GNO in Philadelphia that left us all hungover AF, and really, what else can you ask for? We rented a suite and some extra rooms in a … Continue reading last fling before the ring
In my mission to create a Mecca out of my craft room, I have been on a quest for organization and storage. Everything in the room needs a spot to call home and can NOT just be lying around somewhere. And also, everything must be cute. Who knew I was such a dictator? I’ve also been trying to remain environmentally friendly by upcycling and repurposing … Continue reading rollin with the homies
This blog post requires a little bit of background on my friend Jordan. We met in college and have maintained a friendship fueled by the weird and unusual over the course of eight years. In 2011 we tried saving up enough money to attend a 2012 Seminar Camp, aka Drink-the-Kool-Aid-Because-the-World’s-About-To-End Camp. (Note: We didn’t make it to the seminar, probably because we spent the savings … Continue reading gotta cache em all
