Today is our last day of Spring Break and I've decided that, based on my personal observations and social media, San Antonio schools were literally the only people on Spring Break this early. I'm not sure what happened, but we were a full week ahead of most places. The upside is this led to places being virtually empty because everyone else was in school or at least at home online at school. We Read More

I have known in my head that it was about to be March. And here we are. It's March. We are also on Spring Break this coming week which is all fine and good except it brings back memories of last year when we went on Spring Break and we never went back to school and the world hasn't been the same since. Needless to say, this is me looking at Spring Break. via GIPHY Here are some cute Read More

This time last week I was coming to you live from Snovid '21 and this week it was in the 80s two different days and I wore shorts to walk the dogs. The weather is as confused as the rest of us. But I'm clearly thinking about spring and summer at this point because this week is heavy on white shirts. Granted, most of them come in other colors, but I am drawn to a white shirt like the proverbial Read More

Y'all. I had no idea. Last Friday I knew that the forecast was calling for freezing temps and wintry precipitation but those things have turned out to be ALL LIES at previous junctures in my life so I kind of went into it with a whole "I'll believe it when I see it" attitude. And let me tell you, I now believe. It has truly been a once in a lifetime weather event. We've had Read More

Here's a live look at me this weekend. via GIPHY I realize there are some of you that live in places that regularly see freezing weather and icy precipitation, but it's a real novelty when you live in South Texas. This is evidenced by the fact all kinds of things have been canceled due to the wintry forecast even though none of it has actually happened yet. But, true confession, I kind of Read More

I'll be the first to admit that 2021 hasn't necessarily lived up to all our hopes and dreams so far. I heard someone say it's like 2020 but with bangs and that feels accurate. However, the year is still young and there are good times to be had which is why Sophie and I decided to partner with Mandy at Milk and Honey Tees and make these twenty twenty fun shirts a reality. We decided on a Read More
