Apple Picking in Rhode Island

| 26 Comments

I almost thought we were going to miss apple picking this year. As I was looking at my calendar and then Garrett’s schedule, I was convinced it wasn’t going to happen. There was ONE DAY where we could go and when I saw the window, it was just a matter of convincing Garrett!

We typically go somewhere nearby in New York or Connecticut (we love Fishkill Farms and had a great experience at March Farms too), but we decided to meet up with Kiel and Sarah and make it a whole thing. We drove up to go to an orchard near them. The first one was only open on the weekend, so we went to another one down the road, only to be turned away because they don’t allow dogs, and then we crossed our fingers and hoped that the third time really is a charm. Turns out they didn’t allow dogs, but they gave us special permission which we were really grateful for!

Dubarry Boots at the Farm

I wanted to give my parents the full fall-in-New-England experience while they were in town last week. There is something about this particular October that has me absolutely going bananas about fall. I can’t get enough of it all and wish it could last all year. We decided on Fishkill Farms for a pumpkin and apple…

Protecting Your Laptop

I had a really scary, and super stressful moment, last Thursday. My Macbook Pro was hacked. Everyone I told could not believe it. I really couldn’t believe it myself. It is, after all, an Apple computer. They’re supposed to be, like, majorly protected from viruses… right? Viruses, computers, bots… maybe. But apparently, people do not fall into…

My 2011 Favorites

| 5 Comments

I just cracked up reading my list of favorites from 2010.  So much has changed… and so much has stayed the same. 1.  Books.  One of my unannounced goals of 2011 was to finish 52 books over the course of the year.  I had no idea how in love I would become with books.  I…

Apple Pie Gum… Sounds disgusting, but honestly it’s great.  Have you ever had an apple pie from McDonalds?  The kind that comes in a cardboard sleeve? That’s what this tastes like. This is a really weird discovery for me because…. 1.  I hate gum. 2.  I hate gum. 3.  I hate gum. Want to know…

Roadtrip to the Catskills

Meghan invited me to come to the Catskills with her last week. We had such a great– and relaxing– time. I always forget how easy and quick it is to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city. Within two and a half hours (twenty minutes of which was spent navigating our way out…

Our Outdoor Movie Setup

| 11 Comments

I wanted to share our entire outdoor movie setup. I purchased everything for this summer, but we barely used it because it stayed light out for so long. I had pictured doing outdoor movies all summer long but with my 9pm bedtime it wasn’t going to happen 😆 (#grandma). instead, it’s turning out to be…

APPLE JACK

This is so cheesy, but the minute I found out I was pregnant, I started dreaming about all the things I couldn’t wait to do with my child! I was looking forward to big things like all the Christmas mornings and the mundane things like picking him/her up from school and everything in between. I…

Mittens Inspired by Mittens

It is so cold outside! Oh my word. Everyone warned me about New York winters. I wrote them off saying that I had survived the cold in DC just fine. Nope. Way colder here. Not to mention the fact that it’s just the beginning of November. I’m seriously already dreading February. Because I can only…
