This weekend was a whirlwind of ups and downs. On Friday, we celebrated Jack’s birthday at Fajitas and ‘Ritas, and The Last Hurrah; Saturday, chalked with Hollaback! Boston and made a scene with a Guerrilla Prom birthday bar crawl. Monday started out with all of the best festivities Patriots’ Day has to offer as we prepared to […]

Happy Marathon Monday! Patriots’ Day is a holiday for many of us in Boston, and since I’m not running this year, I’ll be spending the afternoon cheering on runners as they make their way through Cleveland Circle. Maybe I’ll modify a Boston via Hopkinton poster to hold up so everyone can find me. Speaking of […]
Arguably, I could have included all of my photos from Pittsburgh’s Mattress Factory in yesterday’s recap, but I think these deserved a space all their own. We started our tour of the museum at the basement level, and I was immediately drawn to the variety of textures and wall surfaces present before we even got to […]
Jack and I are moving a little slower than usual today after a whirlwind tour and a full schedule of wedding activities – but good times were had by all. Elizabeth, a Pittsburgh native, requested a full recap, and who am I to object? Here’s an overview, in pictures. Happy Monday!
As tens of thousands of runners look toward Marathon Monday in Boston (April 15), I find myself a little wistful – grateful for the winter spent skiing instead of training, but envious of all of the excitement. Are you running Boston this year? Help me live vicariously! Share photos of your bib or medal with us, and […]
It’s Tuesday, or something. Things are a bit distracted in the UJC household today, and stringing together full sentences to write about Stephanie Milewski’s fantastic human hearts on hand-stitched teabag canvas , or this updated TED list of 100 Websites You Should Know and Use, or the Boston via Hopkinton marathon poster giveaway we’re plotting […]
On Thursday, Jack and I headed out to Indochino’s pop-up shop on Clarendon Street, and caught up again with Smita, and Jeff Lahens of DressCode Boston. Vancouver-based Indochino is similar in concept to Boston’s 9Tailors, offering customizable, made-to-measure suiting at affordable prices. Until recently, Indochino operated online, requiring clients to submit their own measurements; now, […]
Last week, Jack and I stopped by Neiman Marcus for the preview of their CUSP collection and got to visit a bit with the always lovely Smita of Hogger & Co. Smita was photographing the event, and snapped a few shots of us much like our last encounter at Fashion’s Night Out. She was kind […]
Jack and I have been feeling a bit of wanderlust – with so many nuptials to celebrate as of late, and so many friends who have moved away, it seems like it’s been forever since we dropped ourselves into a city where we know no one, and have no agenda. We love a good party, […]
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! We’re off to celebrate the birthday of a friend who shares her day with Pat, but I’ve been collecting festive Guinness-based confections all week and at least one of these might be in our future once the group tires of Penguin. (If I can track down my mother’s baileys recipe, that […]
