A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte by Georges SeuratI've lived in Columbus since I was in 7th grade and I've done a lot of stuff here, in terms of things-to-do main attractions or tourist stops. I was browsing Google Maps (okay yes, to find potential Pokestops) when I stumbled upon this green… Continue reading Topiary Park

White Chocolate Blueberry Oatmeal Cookies
These cookies were baked because Kroger had blueberries on sale. I wanted to do something other than blueberry muffins so I found this recipe on Pinterest. If I were to make these cookies again, I'd add more flour to make them less mushy. The dough was very wet and the cookies came out really moist, almost too… Continue reading White Chocolate Blueberry Oatmeal Cookies

La Chatelaine French Bakery and Bistro
One of my favorite places to stop in for a pastry and coffee before work is La Chatelaine French Bakery and Bisto. I go to their location on Lane Ave in Upper Arlington but they are also in Worthington and Dublin. I like this bakery because it's open early enough that I can pop in… Continue reading La Chatelaine French Bakery and Bistro
Mozart’s
I went to Mozart's for the first time last night.

I'd never had this IPA before and I would totally order it again. It's bitter and hoppy… Continue reading Mozart’s

Usually I don't do much for the Fourth of July but I was feeling festive this evening so I painted my nails Red, White and Blue. I added light sparkles and used a special white nail polish pen to add dots on the blue nails. Some of the dots came out larger than the others but… Continue reading Patriotic nails

Orange is the New Black Book Review
Originally reviewed on Goodreads I think if I had read this book first before I watched the Netflix show I might've had a glowing opinion of it but alas, I saw the Netflix show first and so I kept comparing it to the show. I also read the book after hearing Piper Kerman talk at my alma… Continue reading Orange is the New Black Book Review
Super Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies
I love how these cookies look. So round, soft and most importantly, not burnt. These cookies all started because I had a bag of frozen raspberries that I wanted to get rid of. I looked on Pinterest for raspberry recipes and saw this… Continue reading Super Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies
