my new favorite spot is the corner seat on my balcony where I can see just about all there is to see, including my mini balcony garden. I’m growing some basil, mint, cilantro along with some d e l i c i o u s lettuce and the cutest of strawberries. of course at the […]

settled.
sometimes being settled is a good thing. spending 2016 on the move was a great thing. spending 78.5% of 2017 in a constant state of flux was a not-so-great thing. so, this thanksgiving, being settled in our own place feels kinda great. gluten free all the things (except those darn crescent rolls. […]
summer breakfast
It’s hot. Summer is hot, proven by my social media feed filled with people posting photos of their car thermometers or screenshots of their weather apps. (do you remember winter….and the ice and snow? yeah, me too.) It’s that wake up hot, …go to bed hot, kind of hot. If you’re like me and you […]
spring.
supposedly it landed here in ohio a few weeks ago, but we’ve only had a smattering of warm days in which to get us in the mood. we’ve also now entered the rainy month(s) “april showers bring may flowers” usually means it won’t stop raining until somewhere around June 1st. so it’s time to be […]
time to bake.
(finally) looking back, and realizing that we have moved six times in the past year helps me understand why lately I just feel like sitting on the bed zoning out to back episodes of shows like “keeping up with the kardashians” and “brooklyn nine nine”. mindless brain numbing occupiers of my time. but last […]

facing the cold with photography and chocolate cake.
We’ve been lucky so far this year in Ohio with the weather, but this week we got hit with some f-f-f-freezing cold. So, what’s a good Cleveland girl to do? Go to the beach, of course. I wasn’t going to pass up the sunny day, even though it was only 14 degrees out, to […]
starting a new plan.
We started a new diet around here this week, and a big part of it is giving up sugar. If you’ve ever done this, then you know it is not easy. Another aspect of the new plan is no grains, no dairy. This part; not so tough. Except I do like a little bread with my […]
