[NOTE: At the time that this was written, I was 23 weeks.] I’m due in the beginning of June -- June 9th to be exact -- but I don’t trust that date so I’m just planning for the first two weeks of June! I’m really excited to have a summer baby! It couldn’t have worked out better. The weather will be mild, hopefully not too hot as our house doesn’t have air conditioning! Hello, house built in the 1890s! I love our old home, it’s super charming, but it does have its challenges and limitations!

I turned 30 yesterday! A lot of people get freaked out about turning 30, but I think it’s a blessing to age! I’ve never felt stronger, more confident, wiser, or happier. I know myself and am not afraid to speak my truth! I feel like I have my life together. Life is good at 30.
I wanted to do something a little different on my blog. At first, I was thinking about writing a “30 Lessons I’ve Learned By 30” blog post, but then I thought that was kind of cheesy. Instead, I’d like to do something a little different and give you a small tour of what’s going through my mind .

I’m honestly a little nervous about putting this blog post out into the world because it’s so personal and is something that I’ve hid for so long.

I am OBSESSED with matcha. And yes, it was necessary to bold, italic, and underline obsessed because that’s how obsessed I am with it. Why do I love matcha? So many reasons. It is the SASSIEST of teas. It has this earthy, grassy flavor with a punch of sweetness. It’s extremely versatile, flavoring ice cream, mochi, lattes, kitkat bars, and NOW, muffins!

First of all, these babies are BEAUTIFUL. So bright and pretty, it’s hard not to feel a child like sense of happy holding one of these. My first time having Dragon Fruit was with my friend Beth. We got Dragon Fruit bowls near her place in Southie and since then I’ve been hooked ! I wanted to recreate that delicious goodness at home. You’ve probably had a bright, fuchsia Dragon Fruit bowl before. Well, I was really confused when I opened up my Dragon Fruit and it was WHITE . What did I do wrong? Is it ripe? ALL THE CONFUSION. Turns out, there are different variations of Dragon Fruit…

Whelp, so- I’ve fallen off the face of the social media and blogging planet in the last few months. After we got married, we went on this amazing honeymoon and then I blinked – and it’s October. When we came back from our honeymoon, we treated it as our fresh start. Fresh start in new habits, hobbies, our love for each other, and with friends. I love social media and blogging and I’ve missed it – but I think I needed a little break to focus on some other things.

On exactly May 12, 2015 – the sun was shining and I was doing the paperwork to get my passport renewed. I was planning a big trip to Paris and Barcelona and in between, swiping left endlessly on Tinder – one of the many hopeless dating apps. I liked Tinder because it was easy. Upload a few pictures and a small, crafty bio and the possibilities were endless, right? Or so I thought. Like most Tinder experiences, I had one miserable date after another. I stayed positive by making my dating life a funny story I’d share with friends and family.
