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 […]
This weekend started out like any other, no real fun plans; until I remembered that within walking distance of our new apartment was the annual city carnival. Funnel cakes! (no!) Beer tent! (no!)
