I started a challenging new job last year and then moved into a crazy loft a few months ago. Both of these major events have changed my usual routine immensely. Truth be told I’ve had some seriously frustrating days lately where I feel like I simply can’t keep up with everything: work, cleaning the house, [...]

CK and I just dragged ourselves home from the annual brouhaha that is the Harvard Square Mayfair. Along with our good friend Anna, we essentially ate our way through block after block of tempting festive food vendors.
