I’m probably not alone in saying this but I haven’t had a library card since i was in school and it was part of second grade reading class to get one. That is, until COVID-19 hit and suddenly my evening happy hours turned into reading hours. Hey, wine was still involved so no complaints. Instead … Continue reading
It’s summer and I got the travel bug. And guess what? I’m not traveling. MAD ABOUT IT. Thank God I had some other things I love…. like… Defy pilates. More like Defy gravity. Ugh, my muscles ache just thinking about the workout that is Defy. Seriously, I’ve done some crazy workouts, like body pump, spin, … Continue reading
I’ll start by saying this: One of my LEAST favorite things about May is that JT meme that circles around Facebook the week before May. You know the one I’m talking about. Anyways, that aside, May so far has been a great month. The rain has subsided and left us some cooler mornings… for now. … Continue reading
About a year ago, I started a book club with a group of friends. The club was simple: One book a month, and we meet the first Wednesday to discuss, catch up with each other and drink wine. We’d rotate hosting and everyone would bring a bite and a bottle. No hard and fast rules … Continue reading
So far, April has been all about the weather — from its blissful breezy start, to its mid-month storms (and TERRIBLE, deadly floods), and now to its humid heat that makes us all go, “ah, yes, this is summer.” We’ve hit the gym a lot so far this month (exhibit A and exhibit B), and obviously … Continue reading
It’s March — which is basically nearing Houston’s summer. Even though we’re back to cool days, we have sweaty ones just ahead. We’re thinking about pool and beach time and immediately heading for the gym, snacking on protein bars and low-cal chips or doing juice cleanses. While the rodeo has left town, we’re just gonna fill … Continue reading
We’re like not even a week into this year, and I bet you’re already feeling the New Year’s resolution struggle. I feel you. It’s rough, and often you’re probably a little more ambitious in the last eve of 2015 than you are on your normal goal setting days. Remember: You don’t need a new year to … Continue reading
Books will always be my favorite gift to get people. There’s nothing better than finishing a book and thinking, “OMG. Sarah would LOVE this!” Usually, that just means me loaning it out to them, but Christmas means wrapping it in a bow and calling it Christmas. Here’s the problem: What if none of your friends would … Continue reading
I’ve come to the realization that I may have left college, but college sure hasn’t left me. Yes, sure, I buy liquor that isn’t two inches above a dirty, tiled floor (ahem, I shop one shelf above bottom) and yes I have a full time job that requests my undivided attention from 9 to 5, … Continue reading
I joined a book club, so duh I’m gonna write about it. Here’s how: I’ll talk about the book (srsly if you need a spoiler warning, you clearly don’t know how this works), give a rating and provide my own discussion questions for your book club (bc I’m just super nice like that). Just a … Continue reading
