Read MoreMidweek wins: holly and pine trimmings have been picked up and placed in the perfect spots (by Moses) in our apartment, all of Moses' birthday presents are ordered and should be delivered before his birthday on Saturday (fingers crossed)...
Read MoreI have been blasting Carey, Bublé, Crosby, and, *Nsync since before turkey day, but it is finally beginning to look and feel like Christmas. According to Instagram Stories, all trees have been picked up and all halls have been decked, except for ours.
Read MoreHope you all had an epic Thanksgiving holiday! I'm hoping you dog showed it up, ate lots of turkey, Black Friday'd or Small Shopped Saturday'd (if you're in that), binged Gilmore Girls, and generally relaxed. And speaking of Gilmore, can we talk about it?
Read MoreRemember that time I went to Vermont for Cheese Camp with Vermont Creamery? And then I promised I'd tell you all about it, but then went on a million trips and didn't? Well, let me start by saying, prior to my visit in August, I was a Vermont virgin and was not prepared...
Read MoreYou probably won't believe me, but it actually rained here in LA yesterday, and it was glorious. I got to put on a jacket, bring an umbrella with me on my walk to the watch Fantastic Beasts with Moses, and it even got cold enough to wish that I grabbed something a little heftier.

Read MoreWooaahhh is jetlag a real thing. After 24 of some of the most amazing days on the road, Moses and I are finally back home in Los Angeles with our favorite little sausage, Vienna and hi, we are also the newest members of the early bird special club.
Read MoreThe days are starting to fly by a little too quickly. We're up way up here in Copenhagen and currently contemplating extending our trip. If it wasn't for my intense desire to see Vienna, I think it'd be a no brainer. But it's been almost a month since we've seen...
Read MoreThe thing about California is that it's big. Like really big. And Los Angeles is a beast of a city, which I feel like I've barely scratched the surface of two years into living in it. That's why I pretty much backflip-jumped at the chance to head out to the Santa Ynez Valley...
