DINNER PARTY

At some point this weekend, there was talk of how sharing a meal [breaking bread] together is both exceptionally ordinary and beautifully sacred Not ordinary at all To raise a glass together To sit knee to knee or thigh to thigh together To experience hunger and then flavor and then fullness together It says something [...]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EMILY!

Happy, happy birthday, friend. You are… the mocha to my tea. the extra to my intra. the sugar to my salt. the aqua to my pink. the squeal to my steal. the giggle to my joke. the bubbly to my shy. the insight to my oversight. the stylist to my hair. the hug to my [...]

HAPPY HOUR

Hey, friends, it’s Julie here and it’s Friday again! It comes every week, thank God. This Friday, the weather is shifting up here in the tundra—and so is my wardrobe. I’m now wearing two shirts, a big sweater, a scarf, and fingerless gloves—and that’s my typing attire. Let’s not even talk about the layers I [...]

I GOT TAGGED: OFFICE CLEANUP

Wow did I need that challenge, Em. This is where I’ve been spending 10-12 hours a day lately: . The hardest part of the clean-up? The decision pile. Other than that big, empty cardboard box that somehow ended up in my “in” box, every piece of paper in there is a decision to make, a [...]

HAPPY HOUR

Hey! Julie here for the girls. It was back-to-school week for some of us. As in back-to-craziness..?!? As for R-house today, we missed two school buses (yep. both.) and arrived at an appointment one hour early, totally throwing off the day (repeatedly). Ugh! Something about this weekend will be even sweeter than all those summer Saturdays [...]

THE MORE THE MERRIER

Somewhere along the way, the girls and I created a tradition of needing 24 hours to celebrate a birthday. Heck, we can barely talk, laugh, and cry our way through a week of life together in less than three hours. That means to truly honor 52 weeks would require, let’s see, 52 times three…. hmmm. [...]
