How to Have a Päntsdrunk Weekend (with Wine Pairings)
UGH. This week though, am I right? It’s felt like an entire year of bad news and gut-wrenching images rolled into one giant horrible week. Which is why I think most of us are just really looking forward to sitting at home, drinking wine in our underpants this weekend. Like, REALLY looking forward to it.…

This Town Might Have a Dead Body Problem
Hey, who likes to hear about dead bodies? Or maybe I should say, “near misses with floating dead bodies?” I mean, who doesn’t, amiright?

Checking in with an Ang Moh
I had a big jump in my blog stats yesterday, which was quite surprising considering how much I’ve been slacking on the blogging. Turns out, starting your own business is really time consuming! I’ve been pretty dang busy lining up new clients, keeping existing ones happy, invoicing, paying taxes, etc., etc. I also have a major…

The Inherent Romance of a Hypothetical Near-Death Experience
I know I declared romance to be all but dead just last week, but I wanted to share a recent text exchange between myself and my spousal equivalent, XFE. I think it perfectly highlights how love (and concern for your partner’s welfare) can continue to bloom despite distance, bad dining choices, and self-inflicted injuries. Sure,…
