Talk about poor planning on my part to have consecutive wedding posts with very similar title images, but what can I say, those sky photos are just cool! Once we got our engagement pictures back it was time to start thinking about Save the Dates. Continue Reading…
Because I’m such a sucker for alliteration, Wedding posts will be on Wednesdays. Wedding Wednesdays! It seems to make the most sense to go in chronological order of the whole process, so first up is engagement photos! I guess technically the first post would be the actual engagement, so if you want to get all technical about it, check out the engagement here. Continue Reading…
Happy Groundhog Day! I can never remember if we want the little guy to see his shadow or not. Regardless, I’m expecting 6 more weeks of winter, but if we could keep having sunny winter days like we had on Saturday I would be a-ok with that. Lucy agrees. She made sure to spend as much time in sunbeams as possible. Sunday was not quite as desirable but at least Columbus has still managed to dodge massive amounts of snow so far this season. Anyway, enough weather talk, here are other fun/interesting things to share:
\\Ikea comes out with their new kitchen line today!
\\I’ve been watching this mini-series from Norway where they send 3 fashion bloggers to Cambodia to see where so many of our clothes really come from. Fast fashion definitely comes at a price.
\\I can’t wait for the day when we get to replace our old sofa, Emily Henderson gives lots of options for reasonably priced replacements
\\I made these sugar cookies last weekend and B and I ate them wayyy too fast because they were just that good. So, I made them again this weekend. I brought some into work and froze a bunch to keep us from eating so many cookies quite so fast again. But they’re still really good. If you’re in the mood for making sugar cookies, these are the ones to try. Don’t worry if you don’t have buttermilk, I just put a teaspoon of vinegar in a measuring cup then filled it up to 1/3 cup with regular milk as a substitute. Now you have no excuse not to make them.
That’s all I have for today! Wedding posts are starting up this week, so get excited for that!
I can’t believe I posted that photo. B took it while we were climbing one of the pitons in St Lucia (re: #7 below) and it was quite possibly the hardest climb either of us had done. So, please excuse the sweaty mess but it’s completely fitting to describe the past year.
2014 was insane.
Allow me to give you a brief overview as an explanation for my absence on here last year:
hello? blog world? are you out there?
Boy, it’s been a long, long while since I’ve been around here. 2014 was one of the busiest years of my life, and as things are (finally) winding down I’m really excited to brush the dust off this little piece of internets and breathe some new life into the blog! Can you not see the enthusiasm??
Hopefully people are still out there to read it. I do have fun things to talk about after all this time away, I promise!
More on where I’ve been and what I’ve been doing soon. Stay tuned!
