pulling it together

July 31, 2016 Posted in etc2 Comments

Since you last heard from me in this space, I’ve moved three times (DC -> parents’ home in Green Bay, Green Bay -> Madison sublet, sublet -> actual new home), finished seven credits of grad school, spent five weeks hanging out with amazing kids at a local learning center, and have lost or accidentally destroyed three… Continue reading pulling it together

skin routine for changing seasons

March 31, 2016 Posted in head to toe3 Comments

Last year, I shared my winter and summer skin routines, and a lot of those habits have stuck. But as I continue to get nerdier and more obsessed with keeping my skin healthy, I’ve adopted a few new habits as well. Currently in my medicine cabinet: So what does my routine look like morning and… Continue reading skin routine for changing seasons

hearty vegetarian eating

February 10, 2016February 10, 2016 Posted in etc4 Comments

I am by no means a strict vegetarian, but I rarely eat meat, especially at home and especially during Lent. As many people lean meatless this time of year on Fridays and also more generally, suddenly I realize that meatless eating doesn’t come as easily if you’re not in the habit. So, since I’m super hungry on Ash… Continue reading hearty vegetarian eating

#caritaslent

February 8, 2016 Posted in spiritualityLeave a comment

I keep meaning to write a comprehensive preview of my plans for Lent 2016, like I did last year. Instead I keep… not doing that. I might pull that together before Ash Wednesday, but I might also not. But this year, Elise and I did record an episode of Caritas ALL about Lent. You can take… Continue reading #caritaslent

As everyone with an internet connection knows, we are getting slammed with snow here in DC this weekend. Some people’s parents might have been worried about their electricity going out or running out of groceries, but my dad’s only question was, “Do you have enough books to read?” Don’t worry, Dad. My weekend will mostly… Continue reading to read in 2016

a better morning

August 24, 2015 Posted in etc2 Comments

This is not “5 Morning Habits of the Richest, Happiest, Best, Fittest, Longest Living People Ever.” Just absolutely not that. This is more “5 Things I Sometimes Do That Makes My Morning Slightly Better.” Put your phone somewhere that isn’t your bed. (But set your alarm as late as possible.) Eat something delicious for breakfast… Continue reading a better morning

favorites for summer skin

July 25, 2015 Posted in head to toeLeave a comment

Back in the winter, I talked about my favorites for winter skin. I’ve had some semblance of a routine chugging along, but nothing great. My skin was driving me crazy with the heat, so I basically stopped wearing make-up for a stretch. Theeeen I caved and ordered the Glossier Summer Edition Phase 1 Set. Loving… Continue reading favorites for summer skin

Sorry for the quiet week here. Things have been a bit crazy between my current refocusing on good habits, trying to be a good friend, and also… Let’s talk about some links. 1.

Two of my good friends (1 & 2) shared around a lovely graduation speech by Donald Antrim — you can read it here in The New Yorker. I love both of those women and also this piece. Just, come on — I hope that you will be faced with difficult choices and decisions, trials that… Continue reading poetry dose | three

worthwhile clicks vol. 3

July 12, 2015July 12, 2015 Posted in mediaLeave a comment

The theme of this edition of Worthwhile Clicks is… hard reads. Again. Sorry. These are all excellent, challenging pieces. 1. Srebrenica Revisited. “A soldier bound Mr. Avdic’s wrists and ordered him to take off his shoes and shirt. He had no shoes, so he took off his socks instead.” 2. ‘He’s Jesus Christ.’ “The chief explained… Continue reading worthwhile clicks vol. 3
