Lovely Blogs

Michigan is settling into winter. The days are getting shorter, and the chill of the air promises snow. The winter solstice will be followed by Christmas and the new year. My new job means I get more time to celebrate the holidays. I am content to settle into my nest.

Here are a few cozy blogs to inspire your home.

Who says life in the city is cold? Stefanie of A Common Thread catches the warmth of living in NYC.

Jodi of A Keeping of Days keeps a comforting Midwestern blog and home.

Lindsay of A Wooden Nest invites readers to share her home in the Pacific Northwest.

I hope these blogs bring you good cheer!

And The Rockets' Red Glare

Summer is Here

As a summer baby born in the hottest, most humid part of the Michigan summer, this summer has not disappointed. Warm, sunny weather mixed with just the right amount of storms, I have not felt this alive in years.


I have already made two treks across Michigan, one up to visit family in Ludington and the other to Rochester to watch the USA play England in the World Cup and roam the old haunting grounds. I tend to believe the trip as as much about confronting the past as enjoying the match with old friends.


With the solstice and longest day of the year behind us, my hope is to make more trips around Michigan, enjoying local, of course, renewing my efforts to find a new, better-suited job and participating in the joy summer brings to me.
