Guess what, everyone? IT'S BASKETBALL SEASON NOW. As you can imagine, that is a source of comfort and hope for Sophie and me after our teams had a not-great football weekend. We talk about all the not-great stuff, along with Side Eyes and I See Yous. And much to our delight, this week has given us the Yellowstone season 5 premier, so we break down the non-spoiler-y latest with the Duttons - as Read More

Yesterday I sat in my car and it was 86 degrees on my car thermometer and I wondered if I might ever feel cold again. I realize I'm a lifelong Texan and I should be used to it, but I do not like to sweat in November. So the fact that there is a real live cold front blowing through about noon today and the temperatures for the next week look appropriately seasonal makes me feel a little bit Read More

This episode is longer than usual because of our Gift Guide, but you can rest assured that Sophie and I break down all the important football developments before we get into anything else. After all, we want the podcast to be a safe place for me as I process my football grief and disillusionment. Just like last week, the Gift Guide links are in a Google doc (link below), and it's my turn for Read More

Remember back when A&M lost to South Carolina I think it was and I said things couldn't get worse. I lied. Because last weekend I went to the A&M vs. Ole Miss game and here's a quick list of things that went wrong: 1. The team had no run out song and it was instead just kind of an awkward silence as they took the field. 2. The officiating was atrocious at times. I never believe in Read More

Well, the Aggies didn't win, but just as I predicted, I still enjoyed the snacks and the company at this past weekend's Texas A&M / Ole Miss game. We talk about both of those things, as well as Caroline's game day overalls and the pre-game festivities. Then, in news unrelated to football, we discuss the quality time Sophie and her husband have had with Alex's roommate and why she may open a Read More

I can't really talk about football right now, but thanks for asking. All that being said, I'm already in College Station for the game against Ole Miss this weekend. I'd appreciate your thoughts and prayers. Here are some cute things I found this week in between reading message boards about what's going on with Aggie football. 1. mock turtleneck pullover sweater This is such a great Read More

Over the years Sophie and I have had a lot of conversations about college football, but I don't think I have ever been as fired up about my Aggies as I am this week. That is to say: I'm a smidge angry. We process some of that anger before we move into Side Eyes and I See Yous, and then we do a little catch-up on the non-football things that have happened this past week. You may pick up on the fact Read More

We actually got a fairly legitimate cold front here on Monday and I was delighted. I can't remember the last time we had a cool, rainy day and I hope we have more of them in our winter future. Now, in fairness, it's back in the 80s over the weekend, but I did get to wear a sweater on two different occasions this week and that felt like a win. Here are some cute things I found this Read More

This is going to be quick because I'm currently in Brenham for a live Big Boo Cast show with Sophie and Retha. I can assure you we are having a ton of fun. But here are some cute things I found this week. Some of these are on the pricier end because they are too pretty to not share. 1. adore moi dress We have a Sundance store that's not far from our house and I like to go look at Read More
