I never dreamed when I started tracking these goals quarterly last year (or especially when I set most of these goals in the first place in early 2018) how much would be changing for us over the course of 2020. In addition to the pandemic that no one predicted, there’s also been the unexpected news …
Welp, last month was a doozy. Not necessarily because anything new happened, but just because of that—BASICALLY NOTHING NEW HAPPENED! Other than the fact that it’s starting to look more and more likely that we’ll be moving at some point this year (see my post on my other, more personal blog for details). Basically, since …
Seeing as we’re almost a third of the way through the year, I figured I probably should do a check-in with my 2020 resolutions, even if the current pandemic conditions make some of these impossible to work on or predict at the moment.

Right now, …

Some are well-loved, with spatters of grease and chocolate smeared across multiple pages and several handwritten notations on favorite recipes. Others are in pristine condition, maybe having only been cracked open once or twice soon after being acquired. With the …
While January has always been my least favorite month (and the one that feels eternally long), this year wasn’t too bad actually, which was surprising because we hardly left the house at all (#newbornlife). A lot of that can be chalked up to the fact that I feel better than I have in a long, …
