travelling. lifestyle. eating.
No city breaks, no visits to the beach or hikes in the mountains. Nope, it's #lockdown2020. We're doing okay and managing to stay safe, but it's not been an easy time for anyone. Right now we're pretty much living for the two mile walks in our South Jersey neighbourhood to keep us sane. Yesterday I [...]
COVID-19 is an incredibly sensitive subject at this point in time — in fact, let's not even begin to talk about it (I'll even hold my tongue for 5 minutes about the lockdown protests 🤦♀️). What I want to talk about is the period of time this virus is giving us: Self-isolation. In my own [...]

Last month I ordered a pumpkin spice latte and, to my absolute shock, actually liked it (despite it being waaay too sweet). And I've now made it my [...]
We recently invested in an (albeit, cheap) slow cooker. We'd wanted one for yeeeeears but feared it'd become yet another kitchen appliance destined for the dusty realm of the back of the cupboard.
