Week one of a new job and it’s wonderful and overwhelming simultaneously. Overwhelming in a fantastic way – it’s been too long since I was excited about work. Nevertheless, there are moments when I need a bit of a pep talk and yesterday, I broke out the sparkling cherry juice in lieu of wine. So … More Happy Friday!
Pho Lucky is a family restaurant and the latest addition to the Detroit food scene. The Midtown location is the fifth in the region and has attracted a lot of buzz because of its authentic Vietnamese Pho offerings. I heard so much about it lately that I didn’t even realize it only opened on Monday … More Pho Lucky
It’s that time of year again! Family gatherings, dinners with friends and work parities that require a dish to pass. This month I put together a list of sides for such occasions. I know the links have been unreliable on initial posting the last couple months so I’m triple checking them this time around so … More Holiday Sides
It’s an end of an era in more ways than one. With speculation that Daniel Craig is done with Bond my interest in the series will probably decline and – equally as pressing – this will probably be our last late night movie outing for a while. To commemorate such a momentous occasion we may even … More Happy Friday
Six months seems like forever and no time at all! I don’t want to wish time away – especially since I love the holiday season, quality time with Danny and sleep – but I can’t wait to meet our little man. It becomes more real every day and we both are anxious to hold him … More Month 6
Traditionally when I start a new phase of life I start a new blog, while this blog will likely evolve it will be at this url. 28 might now seem like a milestone but this year I’m going from me to mom and it’s scary. I have a history with anxiety and let’s just say … More The Next Stage – Year 28
We are massively behind on the Detroit food scene. There are simply too many restaurants and not enough time or money – although we’d probably find the time if money wasn’t a factor… To celebrate our birthdays and eat food that tastes better and costs less than the Palace of Auburn Hills, we checked out … More Bobcat Bonnie’s
It’s time for another mushy love post, it’s my Wordbird’s birthday and I love him more than words can say. He’s a sweetheart, patient (with the exception of videogames) and kind and make me the best version of myself. I feel lucky every day to be with him. Danny has changed so much in the … More Happy Friday and Happy Birthday Danny!
I reached that point where new clothes are a must. This weekend I invested in some maternity pants and have to say I’m not sure why everyone doesn’t wear them at all times. Normally, I can’t wait to get out of pants because I either spend my time awkwardly pulling them up or feeling like … More 2nd Trimester Fashion
One of my favorite things about Detroit is that it’s always changing. If you’re away for a couple weeks, things are likely to be very different from when you return. It had been far more than a couple weeks since I last visited the Detroit Historical Museum and while I knew it had undergone a renovation, I … More Detroit Historical Museum
