2013: A Year in Review
I am fully aware that it is February and that I am a full month behind on this post. I was hesitant to post anything at all at this point, but 2013 was too good to not look back on. Better late than never, right? Here’s a summary of our 2013 in handful of words […]
MoreQuintessential Fall
No, this is not fall in Arkansas. I wish that I could say that it was, but in fact, it is still very green in these parts. This is quintessential New England, a perfect fall day in central Massachusetts. While the trees here are taking their time to change, today I reminiscence on fall in New […]
MoreMarket Saturdays
One thing that I had a really hard time with when we lived in Boston was how hard it was for me to get to a local farmer’s market. I never found one in my neighborhood, and I didn’t always have much time to visit the one that I knew of downtown. I did find […]
MoreNew England Lobster Rolls
New Englanders take their lobster rolls seriously. There’s a science to this meal, and everyone has their own solution. Some like it warm, and some like it cold. Some like their meat frisked with mayo, and others like it naked with a side of drawn butter. Some like only tail meat, while others enjoy the […]
MoreHello from Arkansas
Over the past six weeks we’ve traveled to two continents, seven countries, and five states. After nearly two months of travel, our nomadic lifestyle has finally come to an end. Since my last post we returned to the U.S., enjoyed a few days in Boston, visited family in upstate New York, crossed the border to […]
MoreSauerkraut and Goodbye
Last night we locked the door to #20 one last time. We stood and stared at the empty space, reflecting on the moments shared in our sweet little home. Closing my eyes, I saw an apartment filled with beautiful memories. Maybe it’s because I’ve never moved much before, or maybe it’s because of the things […]
MoreMeet Cate
This is Cate, my darling and talented friend. Isn’t she precious? Cate is one of those people who you just long to be around. Her happiness is contagious, and her kind spirit won me over. I still remember the first time I met her. It wasn’t long after we moved here. The hubs and I […]
MoreSo Long, Farewell
As much as I’ve avoided admitting it, this is sadly our last week living in Boston. We’ve finished what we moved here for, and now it is time for us to move on. We don’t know exactly what is next for us, but we are excited to find out. For now, we have one last […]
MoreStrawberry and Goat Cheese Bruschetta
I think it’s safe to say that spring really has made it to Boston. There were a few weeks there where I thought winter was gone for good, only to wake up the next day to 40 degree weather. I’ve been dressing awkwardly these past few weeks, unsure as to what the weather would do, […]
MoreSemi-Homemade Donuts
I’ve had a hard time writing this week. It’s not that I haven’t had things to write about, it’s that I haven’t been sure how to transition from my last post. My writing is typically pretty light and happy, but because of recent events, things have been a bit heavier here at The Daily Doss. […]
