For a Father’s Day gift, one of my sisters and I bought tickets to a Columbus Landmarks CityWalks Guided Tour, and we finally were able to go the weekend before last. It was a beautiful morning to walk around downtown. I keep thinking every warm weekend will be our last before winter but they just […]

Autumn Weekend Roundup

Some weekends I accomplish nothing and barely leave the house, but this past weekend is perfect for a little autumn weekend roundup. I cheated and got an early start to the weekend by taking Friday off. Chris and I spent the day running some errands and got last minute Halloween costume accessories and an oil […]
Autumn Day Trip to Yellow Springs

For the fourth year in a row, Chris and I made a autumn day trip to Yellow Springs to enjoy the beautiful fall foliage. Chris did a little bit of research before we left and we decided we would hike Glen Helen rather than going to John Bryan, which we’ve done every other time we’ve […]
Buying a House // part 1

As I mentioned in this post, I started looking at houses online last summer. I worked in Bexley at the time and had fallen in love, so in my attempt to see if I could afford it, I started browsing houses online. During my lunch break, I would walk up and down the streets, and […]
November Instagram Roundup

Thanksgiving has come and gone and the month of November is almost over. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I know I did. My oldest sister came home for the holiday and it made the holiday that much sweeter. I also got a couple days off from work to celebrate Thanksgiving and so far […]

Breakfast Tour with Columbus Food Adventures

My dad is one of the hardest people to shop for so for Christmas my sister and I purchased him and ourselves tickets to the Breakfast Tour with Columbus Food Adventures. He loves breakfast and we often meet him for breakfast at the German Village Coffee Shop so we thought this would be a fun […]
Columbus Architectural Salvage

This past weekend we made a trip out to Columbus Architectural Salvage to check out what it had to offer. We entered without any idea whether or not we would actually find anything and with the knowledge that as renters it would be unlikely we would find anything we could have in our current house. […]
Favorite Local Places to Shop for Christmas Gifts

Every year, I try to do more shopping at local shops in Columbus. I think the small business movement is very important and I think a gift is a little better when it comes from a local business rather than a big box store, even if it costs a few extra bucks. Here’s a list […]
