Hello from Santiago, Chile! The above photo is from yesterday’s day trip to Portillo Ski Center. Today I am writing the 14th edition of these Checking In posts, which is just two months after I wrote the last one. Let’s get to it! Making: lots of plans for the rest of the summer! I am […]
I did it… I finally did something I have been thinking about doing for a long time. I deleted Instagram (not my account, just the app). A couple of weeks ago, I was scrolling mindlessly (like I usually do) and just feeling jealous towards everyone at their pool parties, lake days, beach days, and just […]
I am writing this as a shove a huge bowl of pasta salad into my face before I will be heading to the airport. I’m taking 2 flights today- first Madrid to Barcelona and then Barcelona to New York and neither one of the airlines will be feeding me, so I am trying to stuff […]
Hi friends! Happy Thursday! It’s been quite some time since I’ve done a checking in post, so here we are with the 13th edition! It’s fun for me to look back and see what’s changed, and I hope you enjoy them too! Making: Challah french toast!!! We have been doing some tests for a future […]
Hey there! I’m writing to you at 10 am on a cozy Saturday morning. It’s cloudy and grey and there has been a POLAR VORTEX! So it’s like, 50 degrees and FREEZING! I’ve been up since 7 am because I had to make bagels for Bite Me (the place that sells my bagels) and it […]
It’s safe to say that right now, I feel busier than I ever have in my entire life. Part of (actually, a lot of) what I do is self-imposted busy-ness (or is that business? or busyness?), meaning I have no boss waiting for me, nowhere I really NEED to be (except school) and no one […]
In the 4.5 years that I have lived in Spain, I have had a lot of friends that come and go, but one of my very best friends is Meaghan- a girl that randomly invited me to her Thanksgiving dinner (without ever having met her… is that grammatically correct?) because she wanted to order pumpkin […]
Hi there, friends! I am back with another edition of A Day in the Life, which gives you a little glimpse into what one of my day’s looks like in a week. The last time I did a day in the life post, it was December, so it was cold and dreary, I was doing […]
HEY! Long time, no talk, eh?!? Sorry for the major disappearance there- I know you were all just so worried. I won’t do it again 😉 Not even exaggerating that every day for the last 3 weeks has had “write blog” on my to-do list and there is a little unchecked box next to it on each […]
Holy moly, does time fly or WHAT? Here we are and it’s already Friday and I honestly don’t know where the week/ weeks have gone. This week was a busy one – less so on the work front, but still busy. Monday was a big catch-up day: e-mails, blog posts, bagel dough, class, etc. Tuesday was […]
