Family Moment
October of 2011. I remember the date well because it was one of the few times I’ve actually planned ahead. I was at Target (surprise!) and spontaneously purchased two new, shiny, plastic sleds. One red and one neon green. Since that time, due in part to being out-of-town the one time it did snow, having a sick kid and/or global warming, they’ve been sitting in our … Continue reading Family Moment

How is it that January is already over? This past month has flown by, and although St. Louis has been teasing us with Spring-like temps, today it definitely feels like Winter, which means I think a bit of R & R is in order. I hope you have a wonderful weekend, wherever you may be. xx Continue reading The Weekend Guide
30 Things I Learned From My 30s.
I’m turning a birthday milestone today! Here are a few things I learned from my Thirties that I thought I would share. If you have any words of wisdom, please pass them along. xx 1). Choose a wedding dress that will be timeless, not trendy. The same goes for your hair style.

Is it me or did this week go by unbelievably sloooow? With the kids off school for the MLK holiday, I thought this week would have zipped by.

Here are a few … Continue reading The Weekend Guide
Mr. Musial
News broke last night that our beloved hometown baseball hero, Stan Musial, also known as ‘Stan the Man’, passed away at the age of 92. For Cardinal’s fans, and those who grew up following his career, this was bittersweet news. For me, it wasn’t because I personally knew the man, or even knew a lot about his career (I had to ask my husband, who was … Continue reading Mr. Musial
The Weekend Guide
One of the biggest misnomers about living in St. Louis is that there is ‘nothing to do.’ I’m always surprised to hear this, and it begs the question, “Where are you looking?’ On any given day, there are actually many things to do, many cool, fun, fabulous, and even free things to do. But like any city with a bit of mystery, you have to … Continue reading The Weekend Guide
Fashion! Fantasy! Fun!
We don’t watch a lot of TV in our house, for the simple reason that, honestly, who has the time? I remember when I was pregnant with my first son, a family friend had explained parenting this way: “You can watch the beginning of Law & Order when the crime happens, or you can watch the end when the criminal is caught, but you cannot … Continue reading Fashion! Fantasy! Fun!
Central Library
I just recently rediscovered the library, thanks in part to my kids learning how to read, and their voracious appetite and mutual love for the children’s series, The Magic Tree House, which has 49 books and counting. We usually take a short stroll down the street to our local library, but Central Library in downtown just re-opened a month ago, after undergoing a $70 million … Continue reading Central Library
St. Louis Fog
Yesterday’s weather reminded me of my London days. Quiet and steady rain all day. Gray and overcast, chilly and damp to the bones. Good pub and PG Tips drinking weather! And the thick fog cast a blanket over the entire city, straight out of a Sherlock-Holmes novel, or maybe a B-List horror flick. It was surreal and beautiful and eerie. Here are a few shots … Continue reading St. Louis Fog
