About Me
This is me, on my quest for life, love and the pursuit of domestic happiness.
Being a domestically-inclined girl often gets a bad rap. For the past 28 years, I’ve been told that I can do anything and be anyone. And, it’s true—I can. But, being a career gal doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy, and find fulfillment in, the simple pleasures of domesticity (cooking, cleaning, crafting, organizing and etiquette-ing!).
Truth be told, you can make your cake and eat it, too.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my day job as a public relations and fundraising professional, but I also adore having house guests, finding the best new recipe, whipping up a scrapbook, knitting a baby blanket (albeit partial, stored in the closet and never gifted), bargain shopping, attempting home improvement projects, creating spreadsheets for our home finances and organizing my filing cabinet (folders, tabs, dividers, oh my!).
While I am a Jill of all domestic trades, I am a master of none (just ask the dozen house plants I’ve murdered). In year three of marriage and year four of home-ownership, I am still just starting my pursuit of domestic happiness.
I hope you enjoy my adventure, and perhaps even learn from some of my mistakes experiences as I juggle life, love, career and home economics.
