Erin and I went to the Indianapolis Art Center in Broad Ripple to take some outfit pictures. The pictures were supposed to be a joke, but they kinda ended up looking real, except for the fact that mine are terrible quality because I used Microsoft Paint to edit them. I posted the details of my outfit just … Continue reading »
Thanks to Alyx, Daryl, and Cecilia for hosting the Christmas in July blogger gift exchange. Who wouldn’t jump on an excuse to celebrate Christmas twice in one year? Gretchen and I actually talked about having a Half-Christmas party this year, which I think is a brilliant idea, but it just wouldn’t be right without Christmas … Continue reading »
I don’t even remember how I stumbled across Lindsay’s Foodie Pen Pal exchange, but I’m so glad I did. What a brilliant idea — bloggers and blog readers from all over the country (and Canada and the UK) get matched up to send each other packages of food, and then blog about it. If you’re new … Continue reading »

I can’t say how often these posts will happen, but I have a few recipes stashed away that I plan to feature on SNACK ATTACK.

It’s like a spectrum, and when I think something’s really funny and I laugh really hard, it’s ear-piercing and terrible. I’m really embarrassed by it at times, like … Continue reading »
Erin tagged me in this meme, and I enjoyed reading her facts and answers to Mary Rebecca’s questions, so I decided to do my own post. Rules You must post these rules. Each person must post 11 things about themselves on their blog. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post and … Continue reading »
It’s weird that I’ve been writing this blog for a year and a half now. I’d like to think I’ve come a long way since my first self-deprecating post in August of 2010, but that may or may not be the truth. If nothing else, the tone of my writing has changed significantly because I’m … Continue reading »
So, in October, I had the opportunity for Dressed to Chill to be sponsored by one of my favorite bloggers, Mary Rebecca. I did a guest post on Mary’s blog and spent some time poking around the blogs, Tumblrs, and Twitter accounts of Mary’s other October sponsors, including Erin from eef-ink. I started following eef on … Continue reading »
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: fall is my favorite season. But, as is typical when the weather somewhat suddenly changes to temperatures that feel cold compared to the 100-degree heatwave of a few weeks ago, I’m starting to feel that strange mournfulness that always accompanies the season change. I always feel … Continue reading »
