Foodie Friday: Homemade Twix Bars
I don’t understand when people don’t like sweets. If someone says that to me, I immediately have my suspicions of them as a person. Is he or she an alien? I should try to be…
At A Glance: Druid Hill Park
l’m so grateful to have the opportunity to be staying longer in Baltimore. One year in a city is just not enough to feel like you have gotten to know it. Druid Hill park is…
Letters: Family History Obsession
Dear Jess, Thanks for all of the fun videos last week! They’ve made me think and laugh a lot over the last week. This week, I’ve been crazily fascinated with genealogy. This is something I…

Nursery Rhymes Baby Shower

At a Glance: Reunited and it Feels So Good
Having Jess all the way across the country in Baltimore is one of those things in life that you know is good, but isn’t always fun. Kind of like eating broccoli. (Sorry, broccoli.) I’m so…

Makeover Monday: Lacy Distressed Overalls

Foodie Friday: Peach Ice Cream Pie

At A Glance: Boordy Vineyards
Did you have an amazing Labor Day weekend? I’ve been trying to soak up these last days of summer weather before we transition into fall. One such evening involved cheering on some friends as…
