Weekend Update {In the Neighborhood}
The 4th of July weekend has come and gone. Way too quickly. We didn’t have any real plans because I had to work on Friday, so we just kinda played it by ear. 1. Why is it during the week day I could sleep til noon, but come the weekend my internal alarm goes off…
That Coffee Life {In the Dark Room}
When I was a little girl, my father used to drink his coffee from a beautiful brown mug that had a whistle on the handle. We were never allowed to touch his mug, except on the occasions when he’d turn the handle so we could blow the whistle. I’m not sure why but this was…
That Coffee Life {In the Dark Room}
On the photo are the names of all the places I’ve lived. When I was a kid, my dream was to be a foreign correspondent. Or a spy. I wanted to go to war zones and report on humanitarian issues. I imagined myself going into the jungles and interviewing warlords. Just my camera and my…
That Coffee Life {In the Dark Room}
I started drinking coffee when I was about 10 years old.

Things I’m Looking Forward to This Fall {About Me}
I know I’ve mentioned this before, but it never hurts to say it again, “I love sweater weather!” Fall is by far my favorite season of the year. I love snuggling up with cozy sweaters, eating comfort foods and watching my favorite TV shows. “Hell on Wheels“, anyone? But there are a few other things…
Things That Leave Me Scratchin’ My Head {Coffee Talk}
1. I love coffee. No, you don’t understand, I. Really. Love. Coffee. But there are times when drinking coffee is inappropriate, the biggest being during a funeral. Apparently, Robinson Funeral Home in South Carolina doesn’t agree. They’re attaching a Starbucks to the funeral home. This is just so weird. 2. So the guy who brings…
Coffee Love {This or That Thursday}
While taking pictures for this week’s May Photo~A~Day Challenge, I noticed something, I take a lot of pictures of coffee. This week, my obsession seemed to be coffee beans… There’s something about the smoothness of the beans… The richness of the browns… Yep, I love all the things about coffee… Collage Layout Courtesy of Ginger…
