I started this blog to practice writing and I had the intention to be much more committed to it than I have been. Obviously there are a bunch of people that write blogs with the zillions of profiles on wordpress. Blog writing is so much more time intensive than say instagram where you take 30 seconds to pick out and post a picture and watch … Continue reading Writing a Book
Last weekend we took a trip down to Mexico for Josh’s birthday. I made him get a passport a few months back and he had yet to use it. He also had never really had a lobster dinner, both I thought needed to be remedied ASAP. For those of you who have not driven down across the border, I recommend you do it as soon … Continue reading You Boys Like Mexico?
I’ve always striven to try my best and be a good person but recently I haven’t felt any growth. My entire life I’ve been the queen of hobbies. I’m always trying to learn new things and that has always made me feel like I’m growing. I’ve taken up everything Joann’s offers at one time or another and learned how to do it, then I move … Continue reading Bettering Myself
So my boyfriend and I are just shy of our one year anniversary since we started dating. I always get a little anxious when events like this come up because I’m afraid I’ll be disappointed. I’ve had boyfriends in the past that threw hissy fits about anniversaries or valentines or holidays in general just not being important. I hate that. Celebrate everything. You really only … Continue reading Anniversary weekend
I’m so obsessed with watering plants right now. I’m having so much fun with my little container garden I’ve started in my yard. It’s actually a bit of a problem because I’ll I seem to be doing is buying pots and seeds. The corn I wasn’t sure about do to it’s height but it seems to be thriving in my old horse feeder. I’m shocked … Continue reading Garden updates
So I’m in a book club group on facebook. There are a zillion or so members but they review a bunch of books and know all about the best book apps so although I don’t participate too much, I still enjoy the posts. Recently it’s been all about pen pals in the group. People are posting “in search of pen pal” posts and I’m super … Continue reading Pen Pals
One of the hobbies that I’ve adopted from the bf is home brewing beer. I’ve been involved in his brewing process for almost 9 months now. As much as it’s a fun hobby for us, we take it pretty seriously. We go to different breweries and drink flights as “research” and discuss each beer, what we liked and how we’d do a similar recipe ourselves. … Continue reading Beer Brewing- Braggot
I’ve always loved plants. I get a super weird sense of accomplishment by having plants and not killing them. Growing my own fruits and vegetables is like crack for me. I have one of those AeroGardens which is one of those kitchen hydroponic gardens and it provided a steady fix for a few years. I grew tomatoes mainly and using them in my own pasta … Continue reading Green Thumb Therapy
Writing a blog is something I’ve wanted to start for a while and I hadn’t because I couldn’t decide what to write about. I felt like I should try to focus on something specific to give the blog direction. Focus is never been something I’ve had an abundance of so I don’t know why I thought that I’d be able to do that in a … Continue reading Getting Started
