Currently Reading… Something Dark
This past week I decided to make one last go at squeezing in a book before the year ends. I’ve had Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn on my radar for quite awhile, and happened upon the Kindle edition for a couple bucks. I’m only a few chapters in, but so far I’m hooked. The short, […]
My Best Holiday Shopping Tip
Christmas is fast approaching and I’m sure many people out there are still frantically trying to track down that one specific gift for a special someone. I want to share a website I recently used to find a Playstation 4 (a birthday gift for Konrad). It’s called whohas.it?, and it works exactly how you think […]
Top 3 Holy Grail Products for Acne Prone Skin
my top three holy grail products for acne prone skin I’ve never been one of the lucky ones to have flawless skin. Anyone who has to listen to me go on about trivial life things can attest that I am constantly trying new products and home remedies, whether it be for skin care, in the […]
A Swedish Film Recommendation
I recently watched the Swedish version of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo series, on Konrad’s recommendation.

Now that it’s November, everyone has the holidays on their mind. I even read an article on Time this morning that suggested moving Thanksgiving up to accommodate a longer shopping season (no thanks – I hate breaking tradition!) My family has been moving more and more towards homemade gifts in recent years. We all appreciate […]
Heads Up – There’s a Lunar Eclipse Tonight!
Guess what, sky watchers?? Tonight shortly after day turns to night and the full moon rises, a lunar eclipse will be on display! The best part is that it’s early in the evening (I’m always missing those 3am meteor showers). So make sure at 7:50pm EST you go outside and look up! Thanks to Jenny […]
My Favorite Funny Show of the Moment
Have you heard of Veep? The first season aired last Spring on HBO, and I am now eagerly anticipating the third season in 2014. Veep stars one of my favorites, Julia Louis-Dreyfus as the Vice President of the United States. The tone of the show is very Parks and Recreation-ish – clumsy characters and awkward, […]
