birthday, beer, and an attempt to take down my bucket list
Apologies in advance, friends. I’m on my fourth cup of coffee and still struggling to keep my eyes open. Birthday weekends are the best/worst. Because I don’t have the energy or focus to be a real person today, let alone a blogger, I give to you another photo essay of my weekend excursions. In short, I crossed the High Line off my NYC Bucket List (wahooooo), drank a lot of beer and ate a lot of pretzels at The Standard Biergarten, and recovered with a Sunday brunch at the Barking Dog and dinner at the Romantic and Hubs’ where I…

no travel required
Well we just figured out our travel plans for April. George Clooney set for Harley Davidson tour of Ireland in April YUMMM. We always dream about a tour of the Champagne region, but this post makes us want to check out the Prosecco region of Italy just as much. Lovely bubbly: a taste of Italy’s Prosecco region This is genius. And making us hungry. Pastry Paris WELL this is horrifying for about a million reasons.

WE don’t mean to complain—we are aware it’s completely ridiculous—but sometimes, we just can’t cope with the realities of Monday morning. So much so that by Tuesday, we are usually twitching for the weekend to get here. Blame it on jet lag, but when a friend from high school was making a business trip up to Manhattan and staying at a hotel in midtown, we were all about crashing this trip and making it our own mini escape. When we woke up in the morning, we…

jetsetters: @ErinBurniston
Happy hump day, travelers! You indirectly met today’s jetsetter a few weeks ago… she’s the infamous Erin mentioned by @ChristopherWood! Though she’s been described as a “5’3″ blonde who intimidates all passerby,” we’ve now found out that her biggest fear is men carrying newspapers and her favorite travel buddy is a stuffed animal named Emma, so we’re suspecting that she’s less intimidating than you’d think. Enjoy! Favorite Place: Florence, Italy More importantly, favorite meal: I think I was in Arrezo, Italy. My boyfriend and I stumbled into this hole-in-the-wall (literally!) family-run Italian restaurant that was tiny inside. We ordered a three…

photo essay: baltimore inner harbor
Another fabulous weekend and hardly any pictures to remember it by. And yet, I have neither the strength nor the brainpower to write about my time in Baltimore, and so I’m creating a photo essay with the very few pictures that I took (note: I use the word “essay” very loosely.)
