I was sad to hear Arnold Palmer passed away back in September. Before he passed away, I had pre-ordered his recent memoir on Amazon and I was looking forward to hearing more fascinating
Living in Washington, DC during a presidential election
Wow, this week has been interesting in Washington, DC. Tuesday was a long night for everyone. I tried to stay up to see the results. I originally decided to go to bed around 11pm. But then I couldn’t
Washing Makeup Brushes
I have always bounced around on what I use to wash my makeup brushes. I sometimes feel like I’ve tried them all! I’ve tried hand soap and baby shampoo. And the first “fancy†brush shampoo I
Potato Sack Wool Skirt
I love walking past the store windows in Georgetown. I like seeing what is coming up in fashion and the current trends. I like the clothing Brooks Brothers sells. It is classic and traditional and preppy.
Sunbrella Pool Float
Sunbrella is a great brand with fun summer products. So I can’t believe I am just now finding out that they make pool floats! I was out of town and the hotel pool had these Sunbrella pool floats.
Stuffed Animal Heating Pad
The other day I was in our local TJ Maxx here in Georgetown. We are pretty lucky that DC has such a great TJ Maxx. The ones in Florida were painful for me – you had to dig if you wanted to find anything
Cropped Flare Jeans vs Skinny Jeans
In the late ‘90s and early ‘00s I loved wearing my flare jeans and super long boot jeans. Then they fell out of style around 2010 and I moved on to the skinny jean trend. I didn’t originally love

Poodle Dish Towels
When we lived in Florida, I hated TJ Maxx. The store was a mess and you had to dig to find anything worth finding. But here in Georgetown, the TJ Maxx is amazing! They have clothes, shoes, housewares,
Hot Pink Neon Nail Polish
This summer I was looking for the perfect hot pink nail polish. I remember American Apparel had some neon nail polish not long ago but when I looked in the store here in Georgetown and online I couldn\’t
Grado Headphones
I am a HUGE fan of Grado headphones. Many years ago I wanted the SR80s but I didn\’t NEED them so I used my old cheap set. And one year for Christmas, my Dad surprised me with the Grado SR80 headphones!
Plaid Flatware
I was wandering around Anthroplogie the other day. They have the cutest kitchen stuff. I always enjoy looking at it but I rarely buy anything because we don\’t really NEED anything for our kitchen.
I found a Fitbit
I was out walking the other morning and I found a Fitbit on the ground. I posted on our neighborhood forum that I found it but I didn\’t get any responses. A lot of people come into Georgetown to work
