Flashback to Insane Cross Country Road Trip of ’17: We climb into the car to start another day of driving. Samuel turns to me. “Honey, you know what I was thinking we should do today?” “Get some Naked Juice?” *Blink blink* “How did you know?” Well, that’s easy. Because that’s what we both think every … Read more
Being a mom means that I don’t have all the time in the world for baking that I used to. I spend most of my waking hours playing with, reading to, feeding, squeezing the thighs of and bouncing the curls of my (six month old!!!!!!!) son. But does this mean I am any less worthy … Read more
If you’ve been following me on Instagram lately, you’ve probably noticed that I have been picking flowers like there’s no tomorrow. I pretty much spend the whole day yelling at the top of my lungs about how beautiful they are. “Well,” Samuel says, fed up with watching me pat myself on the back for being such … Read more

I’m back! And in hopes that you will forgive me for my brief absence, I bear gifts of fudgy, flourless brownies topped with a fluffy peppermint cream cheese frosting and studded with the delicate crunch of candy canes. Am I forgiven? So how is it that my kid was perfect for 9 hours straight in … Read more

You know the feeling. 5 o’ clock is rolling on in and you still have no dinner plans. You look in the cupboard and find a box of spaghetti noodles. “Hello, old friend,” you say to yourself. You thaw a brick of ground beef in the microwave and get out the familiar can of … Read more
Hello, and welcome to my first post of 2018! January may be half over, but (as usual) I have some great excuses! First of all, Samuel now has an official deadline to finish his thesis to get his degree (after which he will have to fly all the way back to Berlin to defend it), … Read more
