Ever have those days where it seems like everything goes wrong?? I know I do, and this week has made me think A LOT about my personal and professional life… I tend to get extremely overwhelmed by my career — could be due to the constant multiple deadline submittals to clients, numerous industry conferences to […]

I’m not sure if it’s the slowing economy or my desire to save money for all these upcoming travels I’m venturing on, but lately, I have been cooking up some very tasty dishes (if I do say so myself) – I have to admit that most of my “home cooking” stems from recipes I find […]

Yes, I am singing this song – the poor people in my office had to listen to Frank Sinatra’s “New York, New York” this morning because I got the best surprise last night from my beloved Jeff… He is taking me to NEW YORK CITY for my birthday!! Technically, we’re visiting the week before my […]

My recent music infatuation takes the name Kings of Leon and interestingly enough, their newest album happens to be their THIRD release (I had no idea!!)

Last Friday Jeff and I had our very first “surprise date night” (see my previous post for the background of the game)… he came and picked me up and of course I was dying to know where we were going, but he was good about not spoiling the surprise – keeping with our constant need […]

This post is going out there to all my blog readers because I am in desperate need of help! I’ll fill you in on the details first, and then comes the tricky part… OK, so my boyfriend and I were talking a few weeks ago about how we wanted to start having a weekly night […]

It’s already Friday, and after an important friend (i.e. Meg) told me that I needed to get on the ball today about blogging (obviously she is slammed at work-haha), I thought I’d finally take the opportunity to post a few pictures from our trip last week to San Francisco and Napa.
