I Got A Nautical Themed Pashmina Afghan
Ever since I moved back to Los Angeles almost two years ago, I’ve spent the majority of my time working my tail to the bone. (No, really. It hurts to sit. TMI.)

To be honest, things have been... Read More
Please Forgive Me And My Slacker Ways

Every week, I swore that I’d write a post all about my latest goings-on, but then something would inevitably get in the way—i.e. a hike, a trip to the grocery store, or a “Battle of the ADAs” marathon of Law And Order: SVU on the USA Network—and I would get distracted, leaving my laptop to remain unopened on the dining room table. While... Read More

It’s been a busy couple weeks in the life of me. (Photos and proper post to follow!)
