I’m nothing if not obsessive when it comes to pups, but when I came across this video about how to give a proper doggie massage, I couldn’t help but laugh. I know you can’t go wrong with a good head scratch, or an ear rub, but seriously there are actual dog masseuses? Whaaat? Pretty nuts, huh? See more about it and watch the video here.

A year ago today there was a massive blizzard. Snow was piled as high as me for weeks. It was kind of insane, as winters go. But today it felt more like April than February. And yesterday it was so warm, I almost didn’t need a coat. I’m not complaining or anything, but this weather is starting to scare me. Chicago doesn’t get weather like this in the middle of winter. But whatever tricks Mother Nature is trying to pull, I’m okay with it because it has me thinking about places like this.

Photography is not a skill of mine, although I think it would be something very cool to learn. There is something supremely touching about a good picture. Even though I came across these photos months ago, I still find myself going back to them from time to time. What do you think?

It actually was kind of fun. It may even have been fun without the $7 nachos.
Only $5 for mac and cheese at Bite Cafe.
Frozen waffles and bacon on Sunday morning.

A clean, well-behaved pooch. This was before he tried to steal the bagels from the car.

Almost a year ago, Josh and I were scheming and planning some kind of travel adventure. What started out as a month-long journey in our heads soon turned into a much more affordable week long excursion, but it was certainly well worth it. Exploring Rome and Florence made us want to travel again and again (while also being grateful for the U.S.), so when I came across photos of this hotel in Tuscany (which is kind of more like a monastery), I truly gushed. What do you think?
