Hello May! Â The weather has finally gotten gorgeous, my apartment is completely unpacked (the last few boxes were emptied out yesterday), and life is good.
I hosted a girls’ potluck last night, complete with rosé and Mexican food (Seis de Mayo is a thing, right?), and I’m headed down to Pennsylvania for the rest of the week to celebrate my dad’s birthday and Mother’s Day.  As much as I love our new apartment (that’s our living room pictured above), sometimes there’s nothing quite like home.  And mom’s cooking.  And dad’s wine collection.  And watching lots of terrible television with my aunt.
Now if I only didn’t need to work.
