Things I’m Gifting This Year – 2021
Gift giving is my love language, and I have so much fun shopping for gifts! I wanted to share some gifts I am buying this year. I only do Christmas gifts for a handful people and I would like to think that these gifts are thoughtfully picked out. Here are some gifts I am giving this year: Breville The Handy Mix Scraper My older sister has been into baking more and asked for a hand mixer. After some research (aka googling and looking up a few “best hand mixer” lists), I decided on this Breville Hand Mixer! I found it for the best price on Bed Bath & Beyond. Candle Care…

All You Can Eat Sushi in Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill
Hi, friends! Sushi is one of my favorite foods, and naturally eating lots of sushi is one of my favorite activities. While I appreciate high-quality sushi, I enjoy eating sushi in large quantities too. I have tried all three All-You-Can-Eat Sushi restaurants in the Triangle area and I am excited to share my thoughts with you! I am also sharing some tips to maximize your AYCE experience at the end of the post. FYI, all of these places have recently increased their price by a dollar or two due to the high cost of seafood. Orchid Japanese Restaurant – Raleigh Price: $19.45 for lunch & $28.95 for dinner. You can…

Week in Outfits 11.21.2021
LAST WEEK: Work was pretty busy earlier in the week, and my only consolation was putting up the Christmas tree! This is my first time having a tree in my office room and I am loving it!

I am taking Monday after Thanksgiving off as well so it’s an extra long weekend for me. Alex and I’d tinderversary is November 29th so we’re staying at a cute tiny house airbnb for a…

Durham Date Night: Cucciolo Osteria
If Cucciolo Osteria has been on your list forever (like it was for me), here’s a sign to move it up your list! We recently went for my belated birthday dinner and had a lovely experience. This blog post will not have a lot of photos because we went for a late dinner and the lighting wasn’t great (and you know my iPhone 11 is not equipped for poor indoor lighting lol); I will do my best to describe everything! We managed to get a Sunday evening reservation though we were looking sort of late. When you make a reservation, you can choose Standard (tables), Bar, or High Top. Proportionally,…

Mumbles 11.14.2021
Hi, friends! I didn’t get to take a photo of my outfits this past week (though I did put on real clothes most of the day) but I wanted to share some highlights from this past week(end) nonetheless. I am calling this Mumbles like my Monthly Mumbles–I might just renamed the “Week in Outfit” series as Mumbles in case this last week is indicative of many upcoming weeks haha. Not pictured but Alex and I last minute decided to go to trivia at a brewery nearby. We ended up getting there right on time and had trouble finding parking because they were so busy! We have been there a few…
