You know how I feel about the Pop Up Shops in Dayton – but ARIN puts me over the moon with their gorgeous jewelry. Last Saturday, I decided to check them out ARIN and really didn’t know exactly what I would find. Of course, I’ve heard [...]
Well over a year ago, one of my favorite Etsy sellers, cricicis, designed this picture of my doggie, Julia! I was looking at it again today and it’s really something. She perfectly captures Julia’s dignity and serenity.

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.
