I had such a great trip to Long Island this summer. Elise has been two times since she was born. The first trip was when she was five weeks old. That was a rough ride, since we hadn’t completely mastered breastfeeding on the go, and I still had an

When I travel I like to visit indie bookstores looking for zines. Here are some that I’ve recently found: Wooden Tooth Records in Tucson, Arizona Tiny Town Surplus in Tucson, Arizona Wasted Ink Zine Distro and Library in Phoenix, Arizona Kei Collective in Phoenix, Arizona Reverie Books in Austin,

I have not been back to Austin for a long time. We came briefly in 2021, when we were moving from California to Vermont. But at that time, we stayed mostly in Georgetown and Hutto. I think before that, the last time was 2018 when I had my first solo

We stayed four nights in Tucson. It’s where my mom lives and I have so many wonderful cousins and childhood friends. I also got to see my cousin’s new baby a few times. A friend that I have known since Kindergarten and I reconnected. She now has two

Casey and I joke that May this year was our social season. But it actually was, because we kicked it off with a fun friend reunion and a playdate with Elise’s cousins. We drove to Fairfield County, CT first. Driving with a baby isn’t easy, so we stopped

Last time I went to Phoenix I only stayed one night. So this time I wanted to get to know it better. I definitely accomplished my goal. We stayed a whole week and got to visit almost every corner of it. And, this was my first trip (alone) with a

Last winter we went to Tucson and Phoenix. We’ve decided we’re going to take this trip every year. I found this little journal at the The Mini Time Machine Museum of Miniatures. I went there to hang out with a zine friend, a friend I had only met

It’s good to be back in Tucson. Tucson is sort of my second home, after all the other places I have lived before. We came during February and we couldn’t be happier to get away from the negative temperatures in Vermont. I ate my body weight in Mexican

I had a great day in the city with my in-laws. We played mini-golf, got fancy pastries, went to a photography museum, and ended the night with Korean BBQ.

My sister got married in Phoenix, which made it the third time I have gone in three years. I’ve always had Tucson loyalty but Phoenix is slowly winning me over with the food and bars. Yeah, it’s that easy for me to love a city.

My husband and I have had a fascination with Gilroy ever since we moved here. Apparently, it is the largest exporter of garlic in the world, and if you’re eating garlic, chances are it’s from a farm in Gilroy. Gilroy is just south of San Jose and not

We had planned a long engagement but with our out-of-state move looming closer, and no end to the pandemic in sight, we decided to have a tiny ceremony. We figured we’d have a larger party later. The most important guests, my grandfather and Uncle Joe, live in
