It was the first unofficial day of Fall in Seattle yesterday. The sky became overcast, it rained for the first time in 49(!) days, and I wore a sweater and scarf to work. (The scarf may have been slight overkill, but my office’s air conditioning is ridiculous.) Needless to say, […]

Thor Hammer Ring
This Thor hammer ring is my favorite type of geeky jewelry: It’s subtle and stylish enough that non-geeks will compliment you on it. Once they do, you can explain what it’s based on, and potentially turn a fashionista into comic book fan! Plus, how strong will you feel wearing Mighty […]
Superhero Tutus
These tutus make me want to dress up and play pretend–because the only thing cooler than pretending to be superheros is to be one while wearing a frilly costume. Think I could convince Goody Goody Tutus to make one in a grown-up size? Tutus, $55-95 at Etsy. (Source: Fashionably Geek)

When the fine folks at @giadavegas let you take the tasting menu back to your hotel room. I'm sure it's not the ideal experience, @giadadelaurentiis, but your tasting menu is still absolutely divine. (And it's helping this COVID-conscious business traveler relax in comfort!)

Easter egg hunts, friends, family, impromptu coordinating family outfits, and more food and chocolate than we know what to do with. Overall, it was a pretty good Easter. Happy Easter to you and yours!

"Mommy work!" is something Leonidas has been saying a lot lately. Between the day job and writing another book, I haven't had a lot of time away from my computer.
