My Favorite Books of 2022

I will miss my Goodreads goal by just a few books, so I’ll keep the same goal of 52 books for next year. With the 47 books that I read this year, I have a few stand out favorites. I read more fiction than non-fiction this year, but there’s a good mix on my favorites […]

The Best Things I Watched in 2022

Winter is the perfect time to curl up on the couch and watch a movie or a television show. 2022 was a solid year for entertainment. When we adopted a new dog, we definitely found ourselves spending more time at home hanging out with him, so we watched a ton of great stuff. I pulled […]

Summer has started and Seattle is finally getting into the 70-degree zone and I am excited about it. Hopefully, you are reading this from a place that has been warming up and staying dry as well. I’ve decided to link up with a few other bloggers to share some quick updates about life over here […]

Fight the February Funk

Is it just me or is February one of the worst months of the year? It’s short, dark, cold, and just feels like we are waiting for the next thing to happen (mostly spring). Last year, I read an article in the NY Times about a group of friends who each submitted a few daily […]

The Best Slippers You Can Buy

I post a lot of random and dumb stuff on Instagram, but a few weeks ago, I made a great decision. I asked people what the best slippers were and I was flooded with options. I should know better that people are passionate about loungewear. It’s part of the reason this website was born. But […]

5 Things to try in January: Movies, Meditation, and more

New year, same me. New Year’s Day is one of my favorite holidays. I usually manage to keep myself awake until a few minutes after midnight. The evening is usually spent with just a couple of friends. It usually involves good snacks and some drinks. We spend New Year’s Day eating good comfort food, playing […]

I absolutely love yearend favorites lists of all kinds. I want to know what you’ve been watching, buying, and reading and what has made it to the top of your list. I usually stock up on new TV shows, movies, podcasts, and random purchases this time of year, but my favorite is book round ups. […]

5 things to try in november: nail polish, spooky books, and more

October passed by with changing leaves and busy work schedules. Weekends were filled with friend time and soaking up the last of the sunshine before the winter rains arrive. Now, the sun is setting before 5 PM and I’m trying hard to bring some hygge joy to my routine. I fell in love with a […]

what to watch this fall

With the Delta variant still running rampant all over the United States, we are back to figuring out how to entertain ourselves at home – so let’s talk about what to watch this fall. It helps that the sun is setting earlier each night and the weather is turning quite a bit. After a summer […]

5 things to try in September – a pool read, a money hack and more

Each year, September is a month that I look forward to. It feels like new beginnings even though it’s been years since I wore a first day of school outfit. There’s something about the shift to cooler mornings and earlier sunsets that have you holding on to the last moments of summer while also dreaming […]
