If you come visit us in L.A. … it is inevitable that I will suggest we get Tomato Patch for lunch.
Tomato Patch is this cute little hole-in-the-wall restaurant that is only open for lunch.
Andrew learned about it when he came to work at his current studio. They order lunch from Tomato Patch [...]
The headline kind of says it all, doesn’t it?
Waaaay way back in August 2002 when I moved out of my parents’ house – to Arizona – for the first time ….
Andrew came out to visit me several times, and on one of those visits he bought me a microwave from Walmart.
Yes, [...]
**Just noticed I haven’t written one of these updates in over a year! Rest assured, I think about house buying pretty much ALL THE TIME***

We got a new-to-us car over the weekend.
Since Andrew’s 1996 Honda Accord was stolen.
Andrew spent over a week doing research and scouring the internet for deals and comparing makes and models….
And then it turned out we bought the first car [...]
When I went to Trader Joe’s recently I treated myself to some spring flowers for our home!
Such a great return-on-investment for the $4 or $5 it cost….
Since such a big chunk of our belongings are in storage, the only real [...]
We’ve lived in this apartment now …. a year? Plus a couple weeks?
One of my favorite parts about where we live is that we are within walking distance of a Trader Joe’s….
Not just walking distance – a short 2 tree-covered blocks!
Once you leave our apartment…. walk down the hallway to the [...]
I had a different blog post planned for today … but the beauty of running your own blog is you can change the schedule whenever you like!
Gas is now about $4.25/gallon by our house!
Not a typo. It’s absurd.
We have been saving on gas this week though …. Now that we’re down [...]
When we were in Italy last year, we spent a day in Tuscany at a working olive mill and winery.
It was all kinds of magic – exactly as you would expect.
We were able to see all the steps involved in how to make olive oil, and then spent some time tasting this [...]
It’s no secret Andrew and I love Netflix.
Obviously.
It’s pretty much one of our favorite things. We won’t pay for cable TV because Netflix is enough ….
And then Netflix did one better and offered unlimited instant streaming via the internet.
And THEN … they hooked up with Nintendo and let us [...]
I won’t tell you about all the things I had *hoped* to accomplish this past weekend ….
Because it poured down rain all weekend and I just kind of gave in to the lazy ….
I did, however, succeed in finishing watching the audio commentaries of season 3 of Mad Men AND had my [...]
About 18 months ago Andrew and I went to Italy ….. as you likely know from the pages of Italy blog posts I did …. I fell in love with the idea of of a glass bottle of water for serving …. love.
That year, Maggie got us a a cute water carafe of [...]
*except as I type this Andrew is ruining the plan by eating tacos at 11:30p*
At the beginning of the year, Kaitlin and I decided to share a subscription to e-mealz. Every week we download a 7-day meal plan, complete with recipes and grocery lists.
(we signed up for the any-store, low-carb plan. But [...]
Great news! Being a blogger has its perks!
CSN Stores have contacted me about partnering for a product review. In the next couple weeks I’ll be receiving my pick of products from their vast selection, including anything from toaster ovens to swing sets. Seriously, the range of products they carry is staggering. I don’t [...]
I love vintage….. And I love a deal ….
So when we stopped by Out of the Closet a week or so ago, I had a problem. As in, I saw too much stuff that I wanted to bring home with me …..
Check out our awesome haul:
Some super adorable little tea cups:
