I had never heard of Andrea Arnold until I took a “Writing for Film” course. My friend Syd convinced me that I’d like it– because I like writing, and I […]

My mother was obsessed with two major figures during the 1990’s: Princess Diana and O.J. Simpson. Could she have chosen more different people to dissect on a daily basis? Probably not. The one common […]

Sissy Spacek and Martin Sheen star in the incredible film “Badlands”. It’s completely wackadoo, while also being so absorbing. (The movie follows the pair as they begin a Bonnie and […]

This has been a surprising amount of fun. Listening to love songs makes me happy– just like listening to sad songs makes me sad. Sometimes the right love song can […]

Sometimes it’s just too dang hard to make time for crafting– especially during Midterms. And still, I love all holidays! Valentine’s Day, admittedly, is not my favorite. It’s not even in […]

Let me set the stage for you– in 2nd grade, I strictly wore high ponytails. My dad would sweep them back so tightly that, without even knowing it, I basically received a […]

As some of my friends know, there is irony behind my blog’s name. Although I named it after my blesséd pups, I’m not always their biggest fan. Deacon, Lucy and Cooper […]

I am so so so happy! Meggie and I are officially moved into our apartment. First off, Meg and I are about the two laziest motivators in the world. I […]

Once in a blue moon, alright, three times in the course of a week, I need to take a chill pill. Unfortunately, there is no true, actual, real chill pill, […]

I have returned from the sunny beaches of Mexico! Both sadly, and also happily. Sad to be back in the cold New England weather– although my Bostonian friends would beg […]

My Grandma, Noni– which apparently means beautiful woman in some […]
