Tuesday Tunes: THUMPERS

THUMPERS is a group from England with a catchy and upbeat sound that fits the modern indie "sound" perfectly. I will be the first to admit that both me and Allen thought they sounded a lot like Walk the Moon... Continue reading

Tuesday Tunes: Magic Man

There is nothing quite like a catchy song - one you find yourself humming while cooking dinner, singing while getting ready for work, and dancing to that catchy song that you just cannot get out of your head. Then? When... Continue reading

Opening Day

Today was Opening Day 2014. A really really big day in the Reds Nation. I was not a baseball fan when we first moved to Cincinnati seven years ago, and somehow ended up having a baseball and Reds-themed wedding. This... Continue reading

Make These: Scrambled Eggs

Today I wanted some scrambled eggs in a serious way. Normally I make cheesy scrambled eggs, and I will be the first to admit: I am terrible at making scrambled eggs - with or without cheese. Normally my cheesy eggs... Continue reading

So This is Spring

After a particularly brutal winter, it sometimes feels like spring is taking its time to get here. This is especially true when our temperatures go from sixty degrees one day, to under forty with snow the next. It can be... Continue reading

Around the Web: Milk and Coffee

I am totally that girl who goes into a coffee shop and orders a drink "skim" or "skinny." I've been ording my espresso drinks this way since I got my first taste of latte. Well, mostly. If a coffee shop... Continue reading

Falling into Busy

Lately, I've been busy. Except, I don't think I really have been that busy. I just feel that way. Oddly enough, this occurred to me today when reading a couple of the Open Threads on A Practical Wedding: Avoiding Burnout... Continue reading

Tuesday's Tunes: Broods

The first time I heard Broods' first radio single "Bridges," I almost stopped in my tracks. The sounds within the song are ones I haven't heard on the radio in what feels like years. I knew right then I had... Continue reading

Tuesday Tunes: Big Data

I discovered Big Data (the band) when I first heard their song "Dangerous." It's a powerful alt-electronic song with the absolute best bass line I have ever heard. The song is decently catchy, bordering on an ear worm, but stands... Continue reading

Life, Lately (in Pictures)

I am a photographer by nature and by trade, and it never ceases to surprise me just how many pictures I take in a week. I realized recently that while I have many Instagram followers, not all of my friends... Continue reading

Tunes on Tuesday: Bear Hands

This week, I want to focus on the band Bear Hands. They are another alt-rock band that I've recently fallen for, in part due to their catchy single "Giants." Their most recent album was released mid-February and is called "Distraction."... Continue reading

Tunes on Tuesday: Broken Bells

This week, I asked Allen to suggest a band to share, and he brought up Broken Bells, an indie rock band. Why Broken Bells? Well, because it's made up of James Mercer, who is the lead singer of the Shins,... Continue reading

Feel-Good Cinnamon Muffins

Life has been a little hectic lately. I don't really have anything to complain about, except I would like a little more sleep, and a lot less snow. I am just really tired of snow. The first couple times it... Continue reading

Ever since I first heard "Cardiac Arrest" by Bad Suns, I have been hooked. This band is a definite up-and-comer with a solid, clean, alt-rock sound. We both really enjoy the music, and Allen bought their EP, Transpose, which is... Continue reading
