I may have to turn in my millenial woman card for this… but I’m not a pumpkin spice gal. I LOVE autumn, leaves, pumpkin patches, and all things cozy, but when it comes to pumpkin spice… I just don’t get it. I love to bake something with pumpkin once or twice a season, and I […]

Today’s my 27th birthday, and MAN, has it been a year! For my last birthday, my husband, Jonny, was so sweet and thoughtful in planning something creative since we were just three weeks into quarantine. He planned a three hour long Zoom birthday party where friends and family could pop in for any amount of time. At the time, Zoom was a novel thing to us all, and it was so much fun to see so many faces after weeks of being stuck at home. This year though, I told him that the last thing I want on my birthday is to have to be on any more Zoom calls. I’m Zoomed out. This year, we’re going to a nice dinner (our first date night INSIDE a restaurant in over a year!) and then taking a trip to White Sands National Park in New Mexico for a few days.
