Snippets on a Saturday night
The first week of my second semester is over and so far, so good.
I’ve managed to squeeze in a lot of friend-time lately. Though I’m not making many new friends, I’m turning acquaintances into good friends and good friends into better friends.
My father-in-law is visiting to help Joe build a breakfast nook for our kitchen. I hope it turns out like this:
I always have good blog ideas as I’m falling asleep. I forget them as soon as the morning comes.
I’ve been putting together really great outfits lately. I’d post them to instagram but our bedroom is a mess and unsuitable for pictures.
Defenders of Wildlife keeps sending us wolf stickers. So I’ve been putting them on the packages I send my eBay sales in.
I’m blaming the internet for my recently acquired nail polish habit. It’s become a bit of a problem. Like a new color each week problem.
I wish there were more breweries in the Midwest. There are few things I love more than brewery tours. Any suggestions?







That would seriously be the best breakfast nook.
Breakfast nook = amazing!! Also nail polish – YES. I have a serious problem. I just bought a Revlon color that makes it look like Barbie threw up on my nails. I LOVE IT. Nail polish swap? Also come visit Long Island – there are a bunch of LI breweries Dave and I haven’t visited yet.
I loved our friend date! Thanks for listening to me ramble. I seriously hope your breakfast nook turns out like that one — I’m inviting myself over for tea if that’s the case
Have you done the Half Acre tour yet?
If you ever find yourself in Kansas City, MO, Boulevard Brewing Company has some pretty fantastic tours.
I have the same dilemma about posting outfit photos, ha. I’ve felt really stylish lately, but there’s no way I’m showing the Internet my bedroom.
I second the Half Acre suggestion. We did the (free!) tour and it was awesome.
Nail polishes are never a problem. At least that’s what I tell myself when I’m buying a new one or five even though I have about 200 already at home.
Yep.
I think every brewery I know you have already been to, but if you are interested in a distillery tour, the 45th Parallel is a small-batch vodka and whiskey distillery just outside of the Cities.
It is super small, but you get to taste ALL the spirits they make and I learned a lot about the process during the tour!
