I have been unwittingly going through an Etta James phase. A few months ago, I bought some of her music on Itunes and have done my best to work them into as many playlists I can, without being pedantic.

Quinn actually took a little nap and woke up not-too-crabby and the apartment rental thing went fine even though collecting the keys was … Continue reading NYC – Just Like I Pictured It.

I can also look forward to shopping for larger sized clothes after walking to the bakery with frequency. We sampled three items today - a … Continue reading Welcome to DelSo, Able Bakers!
