A few years ago I got a jar of moonshine cherries for Christmas. I had a couple then put them in the fridge and immediately forgot about them. A few months later, when cleaning the fridge, I found them and had a couple. It got me thinking about whether this was something I could make … Continue reading This Month I Want To Try Infusing Alcohol

Growing Up On Halloween
Halloween was always a big thing in my family growing up. By the time I was born it was already a big thing so I don't know if it was something my sisters started or if it was before them. We always went all out with decorating our house, both inside and out. We had … Continue reading Growing Up On Halloween
Kicked Out Of The Guild
This week I have a short story of me being petty about a video game. I’ll apologize in advance because I usually try to have a larger chunk of text, but I’ve never really had a public forum to share this on and every time I see the name of the game I remember this … Continue reading Kicked Out Of The Guild
Benefits Of Reading
I had one professor in college who would tell us every semester how important it is to read. He told us about how when he was in college he would read every single textbook for every class, even if only a few chapters were discussed. He was someone I always looked up to, partly because … Continue reading Benefits Of Reading

So, I will be writing some of the details of what I’m expecting and at some … Continue reading My Best Friend’s Wedding
Meet My Pet: Onyx
This isn't actually Onyx, but it looks exactly like him. Shortly after buying our house we decided we wanted to get a dog. We never got one before because we weren’t sure how often we would be moving from rental to rental. The last place we were in had outdoor space for a dog but … Continue reading Meet My Pet: Onyx
My Drum Corps Experiences
In the middle of all my years in marching band I spent a few marching in drum corps. This wasn’t as much of a family tradition as marching band was. My sister and I were the only ones to do it. My first memory of drum corps, and really any type of marching art, was … Continue reading My Drum Corps Experiences
Staying Healthy During Back To School Season
It’s always a good idea to take care of your health. But in the first couple months of the school year it’s even more important, even if you aren’t going to a school. The first few weeks of school are when students and teachers are suddenly shut in the same buildings as people they aren’t … Continue reading Staying Healthy During Back To School Season
This Month I Want To Try Some Pinterest Projects
Every once in a while, after forgetting it's even a thing, I'll get on a Pinterest kick and see all kinds of little projects I'd love to try making. These are some of the things I'd like to do which I don't think I could write enough about to give them their own individual posts. … Continue reading This Month I Want To Try Some Pinterest Projects
