We had decided early on that we wanted to have Arabella baptized at Toby’s church in Kentucky, so when we decided we were going to go to Kentucky for Thanksgiving, it seemed like the perfect time. My family was able to come, too, which was awesome because we were all together for the ceremony. Arabella […]
I am so sorry for my extended absence. In the last two months, we moved out of our townhouse in Virginia, I dyed my hair pink and then reddish brown, we went to Michigan, Kentucky, and Disney World, and we moved to the Middle East. I will write more about all of those adventures, obviously, but first, […]
Have you ever heard of beer cheese? I hadn’t, until a former boss mentioned it a few years ago. It sounded interesting — beer and cheese go together well, and adding beer to cheese fondue is usually a good idea — but I hadn’t really thought about it again until I started trying to find […]
Football was a big deal at my first high school — everyone went to the games, and the players were like celebrities. But even though I wore dresses and heels to school occasionally, Clueless-style, I don’t think I ever wore something like that to a football game.

As I mentioned, we went to Kentucky this past weekend for Toby’s homecoming. It was actually the first time I’ve seen his alma mater — we’ve been wanting to go, but hadn’t been able to until this year, when one of his good friends was being inducted into Centre’s athletic hall of fame. I was […]
Happy Monday, y’all! We got lucky the other day when we were driving from Northern Kentucky down to Danville for Toby’s homecoming — it was an absolutely perfect day. So we decided to stop near Keeneland and take some photos with the horses. Obviously I was dressed pretty casually — we had brunch at Toby’s […]
A few years ago, I decided it would be a great idea to make bourbon balls for tailgating at the Georgia-Kentucky football game. Toby wasn’t home, so I found a recipe online — epicurious.com or foodnetwork.com, can’t remember which — and followed it. The resulting bourbon balls tasted gross and looked completely disgusting. It was […]
I like a deal as much as the next girl, but getting up in the middle of the night to stand in line in the cold is SO not my thing. My mom and I did manage to get to the mall by about 9 a.m. yesterday (which is very early for us), since some of […]
