Ryan and I made our first trip to Zimmans this weekend. It’s an amazing fabrid store in Lynn, MA. We were looking for some fabric to make cushions for a new chair we got. Needless to say, I got a little overwhelmed and distracted. It reminded me so much of the fabric stores I use […]
My obsession with cupcakes has by no means faded, but it seems as though I’d been lacking the occasion to make them lately. I hate to make an entire batch just to have them sitting around the house for me to eat but I recently realized that if I make them and bring them to […]
Ryan and I eat A LOT of sushi. But the funny thing is, I don’t eat fish – or any seafood for that matter. This past weekend we decided to find out just how hard it is to roll cucumber maki. Besides making them way too thin and way too think I think we did […]

My brother recently wrote about his hobbies on his blog, how he starts something one day and almost immediately loses interest and moves onto something new. As I was working on this terrarium post, I kind of started to think maybe I do the same thing. I blame it on the fact that I have […]
