Can you believe it’s November already? Where has this year gone? I’ve been recovering from being sick almost all of October and that’s just the worse. I’m anxious to get back into the routine of barre classes so that I don’t spend another winter not working out.…
It’s been chilly the past few days, feeling like full on fall is here, but today is sunny and warm with a very crisp autumn chill in the air. This time of the year makes me feel incredibly nostalgic for days long since past.…
Over 4th of July weekend, one of my good friends was married at Craven Farm in Snohomish. It was a beautiful summer day at a scenic PNW farm, and I got to see a few friends I haven’t seen in a while. It was a casual wedding but I still spent a good hour or two fretting over my attire because that’s what I do.…
Well ya caught me. Last week I was bitching about Halloween candy being in stores and then today while out grocery shopping, Ryan & I passed the decorations to which I exclaimed, “Ooh, I want to buy all the things Halloween!” Ryan then promptly called me out. Whoops. I can’t help it though. Autumn is a profound season for me mentally. Perhaps because some of the most impressionable moments from my teen years were in Autumn, so a very deep nostalgia is felt when I smell the leaves & have Depeche Mode playing. It’s a romantic season. you could say I worship it. The pulling out of boots, sweaters and scarves; the purchasing of autumn scented candles; playing Celtic music playlists I’ve carefully curated for the season; these are my rituals. I wish I could explain the Celtic music one. I’ve always been drawn to the British Isles & their ancient past. I’ve romanticized it quite a bit in my head & though I’ve never been, I have this very clear idea of what autumn in the UK looks like. Though I’ll get to find that out for myself in a few weeks!

Despite thousands of acres burning & blanketing the state of Washington in a red haze, I spent the weekend in Chelan for my significant other’s cousin’s wedding. The smoke was so thick that it was so much cooler outside than normal and I was worried I would get too cold. It did cool down quite a bit.…
Summer is here & I am haaaaappy. Sometimes I think I live in the wrong state & that I really belong on a beach in Hawaii. But I love the mountains, the forest & the fog of the pacific northwest and when it’s 75 degrees and sunny, Seattle is the definition of perfection. But as I’m anxiously awaiting the summer days, one thing becomes blazingly clear. My closet is mostly full of items that would make more sense if I lived in Southern California. So when we hit that first day of beautiful weather, you can bet that I’m in a brightly colored skirt, sleeveless top and sandals, sitting in the park in Bellevue on my lunch break, tweeting to my manager that I might not come back to work. I wouldn’t trade my summertime in the pacific northwest for anywhere else. You can find me in Hawaii in January, Phoenix in November & December. I’ll be everywhere else but here during the winter. But there is very little reason to leave this beautiful place from May-September.
