There is nothing better than fro yo, even when it’s still cold outside. So when my mom, sister, and I wanted to spend some time together on a recent weekend, Yoba is the first place we thought of.
And they’ve made some changes – Fresh green wall and some new decor [...]
Jeff was nice enough to give his loyal fans another pizza party (remember the last one?) and it was a total blast! Just take a look at this yummy pizza! And he even made a red sauce from scratch for the second pizza! My sister made the [...]
I don’t think Valentine’s Day will ever stop being a really sad time for my family because my father passed away February 14, 2011. I’m not a psychologist so I’m not sure if it’s healthy or a sign that I’m stuck firmly in denial, but I decided to make Valentine’s Day a little more fun [...]
My sister, Beth, heard about an idea from her coworker to plan a surprise-filled day centered around a surprise theme for your family. So she told us (my mom, and Kayleigh, and me) to have $12 for her and to dress sort of nice and to be at her house around 12:30 (and [...]
I just wanted to post about Christmas this year because it was special in its own way and I want to remember it.
First, here’s a look at my decor. I love the way the tree looks and it’s such a heartbreak to put it away each year.

My uncle and his girlfriend decided to throw a holiday party and even though I couldn’t indulge as much as I would have normally, I still had a blast spending time with my family and singing karaoke (even though my nasty cold made it really hard to sound even remotely good).
My sister [...]
This morning, New Year’s Day, my wonderful husband made me banana cocoa waffles for breakfast!
And we had a little champagne because I crashed a bit too early last night to have any then. I did see the ball drop and kissed my husband and my doggie for the New Year [...]
Let’s talk about something positive and uplifting, shall we? I never wrote about how great my birthday was this year!
A coworker brought me flowers.
My boss decorated my cube and brought me cookies with a cookie-related magnet.
I had brunch with my friend Megan (but I’ll make a separate [...]
I guess this isn’t the proper forum to discuss the finer points of what happened to me last week but just know that I’m happy to be back to writing.
I was involved in an accident that left me with several injuries. I’ve been resting as much as possible with the best care possible from [...]
Every November on a weekend before Thanksgiving, my grandma has all of her grandchildren come over to help decorate the tree and make Christmas cookies. It doesn’t matter that I’m 25, tradition is tradition so I went over to help, too. I decided it would be a good idea to highlight some of [...]
Welcome!
I love Dayton, I've lived here for all of my 26 years and don't plan on settling anywhere else. I started this blog as a way to showcase the best of Dayton (as seen through my perspective) and also to share some of the things that occupy space in my mind, namely beauty, home decor, quotes, and various aspects of my life.
