This interview with Jamie Lee Curtis popped up in my inbox the other day and I had to share. I know I have a really diverse group of women who stop by here to read this blog – HI 🙂 …from teens and twenty-somethings to women in their 50’s, ’60’s, and ’70s and beyond, and …
I know it’s still technically summer, and I’m generally not one to rush into the colder months, but it felt like fall today in a way that sort of reassured me that everything is falling into place… well, hopefully. I guess we have to accept that life has a certain uncertainty and uncontrollable chaos where …
I SO wish I could have shared the renovation of the old Royal Oak into Dogwood Tavern with you in real time, but alas, I was forbidden. I ONLY wish I had not listened and done it anyway because I think these would have been a lot more fun to see as they were taking …
This. is. BRILLIANT. ….and totally effed up… but brilliant, nonetheless. So opening a bar/restaurant I knew we’d be vulnerable to getting horrible reviews on yelp and Facebook. Whether the reviews are legit or not, they exist and whether we are perfect on every level as far as our standards are concerned, we know that we …
When we opened Dogwood a few months ago I realized my hands might be center of attention – ahem- unless maybe I wear a very low cleavage-enhancing top 😉 BUT mostly, my hands are pouring drinks and delivering food and gesticulating wildly as I speak to customers and friends… and I want them to look …
A few months ago Sticker You reached out to me about hosting a little giveaway for you guys and offered me some window decals for Dogwood Tavern … and while normally I wouldn’t have such a need for window decals and the like, I thought maybe this did actually fit into my world now that …
A slightly awkward photo of us preparing 50 shots of Jameson for a few very generous patrons 🙂 L O V E C A T S! I just want to thank all of you who have reached out to me commenting, emailing, DMing me, telling me how my blog and writing about my life’s journey …
L O V E C A T S …Hello! It’s been a hundred years, well a few weeks anyway, and the longest accidental break I’ve taken from this space since I began blogging over ten years ago now. It’s crazy that I’ve been here in this space for so long, before social media really even …
What I’m Wearing… * Waxed chinos by 7 for All Mankind when I’m so tired of wearing tight pants I think I might just die. … also seen here in the snow and here * Stones rocker tee * Oversized denim jacket with Custom tiger painted by Jenn for Painted Cloth and Denim – also …
It seems as though scrunchies are pushing hard to make a comeback AND if you’re anything like me, you probably still have a few from the ’90s in an old box somewhere or shoved in the back of one of your hair accessory drawers in your bathroom… no? Then maybe your daughters are wearing them …
Lately my Sunday House Crushes fall more into the quaint and quirky far-more-affordable-Airbnb-possibility than the incredible lakeside mansions I was falling for last year… and maybe if I delve into it a little bit deeper, it will give me a bigger glimpse at where my head is at… but until then, I’ll just keep it …

You make them yourself! That’s right, you just buy the design you want and then download the digital pattern template with complete instructions and get to work! I’m …
What I’m Wearing… * Camo sweater * high waist Faded black jeans * Black faux leather bomber jacket – this Gucci bomber is sick * Lace up boots * Balenciaga bag * Title: Mr. Probz – Waves (Robin Schulz Remix Radio Edit) I think we shot this within the first few weeks Dogwood Tavern was …
This is just the cutest little cabin, I can’t even stand it! I love the exterior and the land and the interior is already adorable but has potential to be even better. I’d snatch this up in a second for an Airbnb if I had the cash right now because I love it and the …
LOVECATS! HOW CUTE IS THIS!?!??!
