As a kid, my favorite time of year would be when we’d travel down to the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia during the summer. Mornings would be spent waking up to the sound of the waves outside our windows, followed by days fishing, swimming, and rowing. If I wasn’t in the water, I’d be nearby – […]
Although Jump Back Ball may be the first thing that comes to mind when PlayhouseSquare Partners is mentioned, the young professionals group also organizes a number of other programs year-round to support Cleveland’s downtown theatre district. From helping out at the International Children’s Festival to Neighborhood Dine-Arounds and the recent Mini-Golf Par-Tee, Partners offers a broad spectrum…
Between seeing Avengers three times over the last four days (some may say I have a problem; I prefer to think Avengers is just that damn good) and entertaining my parents during this weekend’s visit, I was a bit exhausted when I got to work on Monday. The upside of this? I got to treat myself to coffee. Because I can be a somewhat […]
Why am I awake at 5am posting on my blog without having gone to sleep last night? I think this photo explains it all: Yes, that’s me waiting for the midnight showing of Marvel’s The Avengers to start. After a few years of looking forward to this blockbuster and several weeks of working hard to avoid as many spoilers […]
Only a few days remain until a movie opens that I’ve been anticipating for years: this Friday, the Avengers assemble! As a longtime Marvel fan, I’ve been looking forward to this blockbuster since it was first officially announced after the success of Iron Man. And as if I needed another reason to see the movie, downtown Cleveland was transformed last […]
Because Scott and I were at a wedding last weekend where this happened: I had to miss out on this year’s Market at the Foodbank. Fortunately, Kate Galo (you may remember her from this and also this guest post) was able to attend and blog on my behalf. Enjoy her recap below along with photos from Sarah Casto! I think it’s fair for […]
With a name like “the Vibrator Play” one can’t help but have some bubbling expectations as they take their seat at Cleveland Play House’s latest production. Is it a bawdy tale of lust and love? A stark look at humanity’s primal urges? An expose on 1950s horror movie gimmicks? And how important was that ‘mature […]

So even though I was only in Cleveland for 3 days this week, it’s been one of the busiest I’ve had in awhile both off and on blog. After driving 10 hours to Connecticut yesterday, I’m spending the morning in our hotel – relaxing and catching up on things. Top of my to-do list is […]
When Scott and I bought our house a few years ago, our first investment for the outside was a nice patio set. We knew that if we wanted something to last awhile, we’d have to splurge a bit. And after looking back on summer nights spent grilling and enjoying our backyard, the set we got […]
