I’ve always been a big fan of blueberries but after my inaugural trip to Maine and my first taste of wild blueberries a few years back, it was all over for me. I am now certifiably outright obsessed with blueberries. In pies, cobblers, ice cream and even cocktails. Or maybe especially cocktails! Something about fresh …

I’m sure by now you know I’m no stranger to crafty pursuits. I love taking the time to craft, whether it be trying something new or just adding a bit of paint to this or that to give it new life. B and my mom pick on me constantly for how frequently the words, “I …
We’re gearing up for our big annual summer camping trip and, guys, I am so excited! I can’t even tell you how much I need this trip right now. We’re talking three days stranded on an island, cooking over a fire, sleeping in tents and lazing away the hours swimming and strolling the woods. Ok …
Happy Monday, friends! How was everyone’s weekend? Mine was pretty quiet. B was out of town working so on Friday night I spent the evening fireside with friends and then generally spent the rest of the weekend working. I can’t complain! Every once in a while a low key working weekend is just what I …
Hey, guys! Popping in quickly today with a belated dose of link love for your weekend. After a hectic week, it’s a quiet working weekend at home for me this weekend. I’ve been watching a bit of Friday Night Lights on Netflix. I never watched it when it was on originally, but sometimes that’s how …
Turns out, last week’s ode to indigo didn’t quite get my love affair with the color out of my brain. In fact, it may have only served to reaffirm my love. So as I do, I’ve found myself gravitating toward any number of lovely things sporting indigo as of late. From the most gorgeous indigo …
It dawned on me that it has been quite some time since I’ve shared any snippets with you a la Instagram! I try to be good about these things, I really do, it just seems that the weeks zip on by and before I know it it’s August and I haven’t shared any Instagram photos …
Sangria is my favorite cocktail to serve at a summer party. Namely, because it’s delicious and just so easy to prepare and serve! Generally I make mine the evening before so the flavors have a chance to meld overnight, which also cuts down on the prep the day of your gathering. I like to put …
It’s not really much of a secret that I am rather obsessed with all things ballet. I’m not sure where it comes from other than I’ve been fascinated with the art of ballet since I was a kid. In my early days wielding a camera, I spent a lot of time photographing ballerinas in and …
It dawned on me late in the week last week that I totally flaked on getting last week’s images from The Weekly Dozen posted. Not cool! I do have to say though, this is why I am loving this little photography challenge! It’s keeping my accountable and keeping my camera close in hand at all …
Happy Monday, gang! How was your weekend? Ours was pretty amazing (more on that later today with this week’s edition of The Weekly Dozen), a really fabulous summer weekend. We spent it in the Adirondacks and now all I want to do is plot a more extended getaway into the woods. No internet, lots of …
Hey guys! I hope everyone has had a great week. Who else is excited that it’s Friday? I know I am! I have to say, I really live for summer weekends. We’re off to spend the weekend with family and I’m going to enjoy unplugging for the next couple days. Have any fun plans this …
