We Can Pickle That

This weekend was totally relaxing and just what I wanted. I have been going going going. I've been out of town most weekends, there seems to always be something on the calendar so a weekend with no plans was wonderful.

Saturday I actually slept in, took my time getting out of bed. The roommates…

Chalkboards: Inspiration to Reality

Yesterday was the last Summer Associate event after work. A happy hour of sorts focusing on the law schools that each associate would be returning to after the summer was over.

I made bunting to hang in the conference center with each school's pennant. I took a picture of the flags and used the…

Hodgepode Link Up

Let's jump right in to my answers for the Wednesday Hodgepodge:

1. The Summer Olympics officially begin this Friday night...will you be watching? If you could see just one event in person which one would you pick?

Women's Gymnastics! Those girls are absolutely, ridiculously, amazing! I also l…

5 Food Trucks- Part 1

#63 on my list of 101 in 1001 is: Try 5 D.C food trucks. So far I've been to 2.

I was at my job for a full year before I was brave enough to try any of the food trucks in the square by my office. I didn't want to look like a total rookie who had no idea what to order or which trucks only t…

101 in 1001

My friend Whitney from The Curtis Casa started this project a while back and I think it ties in perfectly with my plan to do more with each day.

Why 1001 days? Big resolutions always seem to fall short. So instead this is a mis-matched list of long term and short term things to simply check off. It…

from the weekend

I had such a fun weekend- if only it had been longer! Hope you don't mind me posting about my weekend on Tuesday. Monday's are the worst, especially after a way fun weekend, so I just couldn't get caught up!

One of my closest friends, SG, came up to D.C. spontaneously for her birthday an…

The Beach and A Pinterest Purchase

Peter is heading back to South Carolina today. Boo.
He's been up here since last Wednesday and it's been wonderful!

On Friday I drove over to Ocean City to join him at his family's beach house for a couple days. They're family is a little weird in that they go to beach but hardly &quo…

Answers to Questions

Lauran over at The Real Young Housewife of Southern Virginia passed along a blog award to me. I am a new-ish reader of Lauran's and I can tell she is just so sweet. I tend not to pass along awards or answer them myself, but I liked some of the questions and since it's Friday and kind of a …

Red White and Blue

Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th! Mine was a little more low key than past years.

Even though it's quite inconvenient to have the holiday fall in the middle of the week, it was nice to be able to sleep in on a Wednesday. I woke up (around noon hehe) to a voicemail from Peter telling me he was …

Whirlwind

Friday I left work early. Then, with my aunt, uncle and two cousins who live close by, I drove down to Tennessee for a mountain top service in honor of Anna. I can't find adequate words to write about this and I don't even really want to. I want to hold on to it, and just let myself be over…
