Okay so I had this brilliant idea (or it seemed so at the time) to write a light, fun blog post with my girl Brooke. The premise of the post was that we’d each bake something, and then give it our review. She’s an amazing baker, whereas I only bake when I really really need…
In this post, Madonna and I get vulnerable – to the point that we have both squirmed a bit in discomfort at the thought of sharing these very real things. But this topic – alcohol – is so very important, that we both decided to just do it. Here goes… Emily: In our last blog…
What’s your name? Alyssa: Alyssa Brown, although our former coworkers knew me when I was a Verner. I was happy to marry into the 4th most common last name in the US; Verner was apparently too difficult for some. Burner? Turner? Ferner? No one mispronounces Brown.

Hi! Julia here, I decided to make a blog post partially because I love to write. I decided on interviewing one of my biggest role models, my mom and some of her favorite memorable childhood experiences. Me (Julia): “Mama (Emily) what was the most troublesome thing you did as a kid/pre teen or teen? Mama…
Do I believe that in just a few days, 2021 will end and 2022 will begin? Not really. There was once a time in my life when I fully believed that the new year couldn’t start until the ball dropped in New York’s Time Square. And then I got older and I moved my family…
HOLY FUCK people, I can’t believe that 2021 flew by so quickly. It was a big year here, but I’m not going to talk about all of the normal shit because who needs to read that? If you have read any other posts in this blog, you know about most of the big stuffs that…
Brett and I get our COVID vaccine booster shots tomorrow, and I should be hydrating myself for the big event. Instead, it’s Friday night, and I’m drinking wine.
