This month’s list is a bit of a cheat, but I promise, I’m making progress. At least I’m keeping up with where I should be over the summer? Who knows. FINISHED: Talking as Fast as I Can by Lauren Graham My celebrity memoir for July! I finished it at the beginning of the month, and […]
Month: July 2017
Restaurant – Copperwood Tavern
I used to live in the cute little neighborhood of Shirlington. It’s a neighborhood centered around a retail center of shops and restaurants that was the first large suburban shopping center in the DC area (opening in 1944), and even one of the first of it’s kind in the country. With the addition of a […]
Game – Pandemic Legacy (Season 1)
NOTE: This is a spoiler-free review of Pandemic Legacy (Season 1) for an unfinished game. As long as you don’t zoom in on the last picture, you’re cool. You all know I love board games. I know you’re not as interested in them as I am, but holy cats people – this is one that […]
Personal – Birthday Girl
Ok friends, real talk today. Yesterday was my birthday. I’m not quite officially old yet in my own books (though I think my brother marked that as 30 back when he was still a teenager and I was turning 25), but I’m getting to the point where birthdays are different creatures entirely. When you’re a […]
TV – Master of None Season 2 (Netflix)
I love Aziz Ansari. I think he’s such a funny and thoughtful comic, and Tom Haverford (and all the misfits of Pawnee, IN) will always have a place in my heart. A few years back I read his book Modern Romance, and I was amazed that a celebrity would be interested in writing a book […]
Personal – 6 Recipes or Restaurants I Have or Want to Try This Year
July // 6 Recipes/Restaurants/Treats You Have Tried This Year or Want to Try Have you guys noticed that I like food? Because it’s true. I do like it a lot. I like to make it, I like to eat it, and I could probably talk about it a lot. So this particular Reverb post is my […]
Recipe – Spaghetti with Lemon Kale Chicken
I think we’ve established that I’m a sucker for those food videos that automatically play on facebook. The boy jokes that they are “my porn” – when he catches me watching one (or two or three back to back), he’ll laugh and say, “Should I leave you alone with your video?” Very funny dude. We […]
Movie – Wonder Woman
I have not seen a movie in the theaters in months and months and months. Granted, there was Beauty and the Beast, but that was 2 months after it came out and there were only a handful of people in the theater with us. But before that? Rogue One. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find […]
Recipe – Candy Sushi (and Pool Party tips!)
If anyone is following me on twitter this morning, you’d see that our internet at work was down. Always a super-productive start to the day. Luckily, my phone still functioned, and while writing a post with my thumbs isn’t ideal, I’m putting myself out there for you guys. And even more lucky for me, I […]
TV – GLOW (Netflix)
Summertime is a time for a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. And one of those breaks is from the break-neck pace of television that happens during the fall, winter and spring. During those seasons, it feels like you just can’t keep up with the television that’s available and if you do, […]
