It’s the second week fully back and work, and I’m feeling like I’m getting in to the swing of things. I’m loving the opportunity to reconnect with my clients, and I feel like I’ve been able to bring some new ideas to my daily flow after having a bit of time away. It felt like … Read more

Sunday Morning Coffee: January 28, 2018
It’s been three months, and I’m transitioning back to work. I’m really looking forward to getting back into the swing of things back at the clinic, but there are also moments when I know I’ll miss having this much time with Will. The first weeks with a newborn are so tough. Now that he’s rounding … Read more
Sunday Morning Coffee — August 27, 2017 — Reading Recommendations & Menu Plan
We’ve had a bit of a break this past weekend in terms of social schedules and were able to spend some unstructured downtime at home. We chose to use that time to move Charlotte to her big-kid bed and out of the crib, which meant tears and frustration at night and an early riser in … Read more
Sunday Morning Coffee – July 23, 2017 – Readings & Recommendations
My dad snapped this photo from the window of his plane as it departed Minneapolis, en route for a visit to us in Boston. The back-and-forth between MSP and BOS is very familiar to me after over a decade living on the east coast and heading home for holidays. My parents are back in town … Read more
Sunday Morning Coffee – July 16, 2017 – Readings and Recommendations
This week has had a balance of hot and temperate days. On the days that are cool for the summer months, I’m trying to take advantage of the absence of heat and cook some of the foods I usually avoid in stifling weather: this week, it was brownies, last week it was cauliflower cake. On … Read more
Sunday Morning Coffee – June 11, 2017 – Readings and Recommendations
We got our first real taste of summer this week after a drizzly, chilly May and early June. We’ve gotten in to a bit of a routine of having a more elaborate weekend breakfast and then hitting the Esplanade along the Charles River for a bit of activity, nature, and to let Charlotte run around … Read more
Sunday Morning Coffee – May 28, 2017 – Readings and Recommendations
I hope everyone’s enjoying the weekend. These photos were from a few years ago when David and I took a road trip through Gettysburg and spent the Sunday and Monday of Memorial Day weekend visiting around the monuments and cemeteries and retracing Pickett’s charge. It was a somewhat chilly, misty weekend, which is kind of close to … Read more
Sunday Morning Coffee – May 21, 2017 – Readings & Recommendations
After weeks and weeks of temperatures in the fifties, we’re finally starting to get some warmer weather. I’ve been back in the kitchen with a little more energy, gusto, and creativity, though sometimes my plans for a spring dessert (strawberry-rhubarb butter crumb bars) were thwarted by not wanting to turn the oven on in 90-degree … Read more
Sunday Morning Coffee: Menu Planning and Readings for April 30, 2017
It’s been a beautiful week, and we got a glimpse of close-to-summer weather yesterday. Charlotte’s been wild about the chance to get outside and is loving spending time on the swings and slides in the neighborhood parks. Here’s what I’ve been eating and reading this week:
Sunday Morning Coffee: April 16, 2017
We’re celebrating Easter weekend and Marathon Monday as a family: my mom and dad came up, and I’m realizing it’s been pretty much a decade since we spent the holiday together. The weather was warm and gorgeous for Charlotte’s first egg hunt. She picked up on what we were doing pretty quickly, and loved finding the … Read more
