Christmas Cheer

December 22, 2015 By Katrina

Christmas Cheer

Buddy the Elf had the right idea: The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear. I’m signing off for the holidays to spend time with family, bake cookies and sing carols as loudly as we can for as long as we can until we’re filled with as much Christmas cheer…

Fall on Walden Pond

October 13, 2015 By Katrina

Fall on Walden Pond

Fall on Walden Pond is pretty much magical. We made the 20-minute trek to Walden Pond this weekend as a quick getaway to see the changing leaves, but we were more than pleasantly surprised by what we found. The weather was perfect — crisp without being cold — and the pond sparkled in the sunshine. “Mermaids, Mommy!” Beany squealed as soon as the water came…

A Day in Portland, Maine

A Day in Portland, Maine

We spent a day in Portland, Maine, a few weekends back, and I think the more time we spend there, the more we love it. There are so many cute shops (Little and K. Colette are my favorites — so much to see!) and a lot of great restaurants, and I always leave wishing we could stay…

What Kids Can Teach You

What Kids Can Teach You

At the first hint of sunshine and warm weather last weekend, we took off on our first spring adventure of the year. Snacks packed. Kids in the car. Not much of a plan besides Beany’s request for a beach. Lucky for her, New England has plenty of coast to go around.I tend to fall into such a trap of…

Before I Blink

March 30, 2015 By Katrina

Before I Blink

I’ve been missing my 52 Project from last year a bit lately, so I decided last week to keep my camera out on the kitchen counter so I’d remember to snap a few more photos. It’s easy to take the camera along on our weekend adventures, but it’s the day-to-day stuff that really seems to capture these…

You guys, it snowed. Lots.

January 27, 2015 By Katrina

You guys, it snowed. Lots.

You guys, it snowed. Like 2-feet-and-counting snowed. This morning, when Beany ran into our room at 6:15, pulled back the blinds and looked at our snow-covered deck, the first words out of her mouth were: “Wow! Look at this! It snowed so much! It’s so high!” Then she thought for a second about what this…

NYC and the Window Washer

NYC and the Window Washer

So many recipes to post. So many photos to edit. This is the year I will catch up! In the meantime, there’s this photo. I’ve been calling it The Window Washer. One week in a hotel in Princeton, New Jersey, and Beany never ran out of things to do. Kids are great that way. And then…
