Welcome!
In 2012, in honor of my 33rd birthday and in hopes I'd step a little further outside of my comfort zone, I spontaneously compiled a list of 33 things I wanted to accomplish throughout the year. But rest assured, it was always more about quality than quantity. In any case, this year I turn 34 and I'm at it again...!
Restaurants to try this year include The Corner Door, Comme Ça, Sycamore Kitchen, Public School 310, The Eveleigh and Huckleberry Cafe
Movies I have always wanted to see and finally will: To Catch a Thief, All About Eve, Blue Valentine, Tigerland, Spinal Tap and One Crazy Summer.
Pay a visit to the Sprinkles Cupcakes ATM
For my room: the scarf bar
Craft crushes: The braided scarf, Shirt bracelets, book page art
Be kinder to my skin, Take better care of my teeth.
