One Week Till Thanksgiving

TGIT! I’m on a flight out from Dallas to go visit Adam for the weekend in Phoenix, and then I fly home on Sunday night to work from home early in the week… and then celebrate Thanksgiving. I can’t wait! Thanksgiving is my absolute favorite holiday of the year, and this year’s celebration is shaping up to be pretty darn great. First: the guest list. Two of my best girlfriends are coming, and bringing their boyfriends/husbands. Adam is flying in on Wednesday. And my mom is coming in this year too! It truly feels like the best Thanksgiving of all …

Throwback Tuesday: Video Game Halloween

Adam and I have a bit of an inside joke where he refers to me as his “gamer girlfriend”, because I like to play Cubistry on my Kindle. (I try to argue that it keeps my mind sharp, like a game of Memory, but it’s really fairly brainless.) This year for Halloween, though, I lived up to my “gamer” moniker, by dressing up as video game characters from my childhood. At my client in Dallas, Halloween is a very big deal. Everyone in the company (literally everyone) wears a costume to work, and the C-suite all dresses up in an annual group theme …

Honey, I’m home! Well, I was for a few days anyway. The month of September is pretty crazy for me with travel, and it was nice to get home this weekend for pretty much the only time this month. (That said, I am thrilled with the places I get to go and things I get to do – no complaints here!) In accordance with all my travel, my first errand of the weekend was an appointment with a home security specialist to get my home set up for a new security system. I am still mulling over the pros and …

Gardein Meatless Meatballs and Fish

I spent this weekend in Arizona with Adam, which was a ton of fun. I flew to Phoenix from New York City to arrive Friday night, and we headed straight to dinner at a yummy (and surprisingly inexpensive!) sushi restaurant on our way home. Although I had arrived not really hungry, I devoured my bento box, especially the tempura, and then realized that Adam and I had gotten the same exact thing but I had eaten far more… oops. Yet Saturday morning found us brunching at Over Easy, where we went on my first trip to Phoenix. Although I tried …

Designing a Home for Healthy Habits

I had another fantastic weekend in Arizona with Adam, and this time, arrived home not at all stressed to have been away. Hooray! I’m only here in Colorado for two days before heading out on another business trip, but I was lucky enough to get to work from home today. Even though I had a ton of work to do (and even forgot to eat lunch until 2pm!), it made me so happy to get to do it from my very own kitchen table. Tonight, I headed out to Bed Bath & Beyond to exchange an incorrectly-sized lazy Susan, and …
