It's been a while since I done a personal 'life lately' type of post.  I always hesitate before sharing these kinds of updates - not because I don't feel comfortable doing them (let's admit it; you can't be a blogger and have a fear of over-sharing), but because I wonder just how interesting my readers could possibly find what I ate for dinner last Tuesday or how many orders I packed yesterday or what I picked up on a recent run to the garden store.  I love posting pictures from my travels and events, but my everyday life definitely leans toward the boring end of the fun spectrum. (Example: I'm typing this from my home office in yoga pants and unmatched socks, debating on whether or not I should take a work break to make a piece of peanut butter toast.  Watch out!)  That said, I admittedly really enjoy when my favorite blogs give the occasional peeks into everyday life, regardless of how exciting the activities may be.  So on occasion, I do the same.  If you're finding yourself dozing off on your keyboard for reading this, I apologize.  If you like these updates, then here you go, and thank you for being awesome.

    1. Sigh. Yes. RIP Chi. The best flat iron I've ever used, but so not worth the money if it's going to suddenly quit working after 2 years!
