We are living in scary times, friends. I don't know about you, but I feel anxious about the state of our country and the relationships we have internationally. It seems like a long time since I've woken up without having to wonder what kind of outrageous statement or action with which Donald Trump has greeted … Continue reading Telling the truth – in Albany

Crafts and craft cider

We wondered why those kind of weapons … Continue reading Lunar b*tches do Las Vegas
Chihuly at the New York Botanical Garden
About a month ago, I came up with a plan for how to spend the holiday from school that happened to land on my birthday - a drive down to the Bronx to check out the Chihuly exhibit at the NYBG. I went with a friend from Mio, who I knew would appreciate it, and … Continue reading Chihuly at the New York Botanical Garden
