Words of Warmth
A Prayer in Spring by Robert Frost Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day; And give us not to think so far away As the uncertain harvest; keep us here All simply in the springing of the year. Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white, Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night; And make us happy in the happy bees, The swarm dilating round the perfect trees. And make us happy in the...
Oh My God
I just ate 3.5 OZ of Rich & Creamy Triple Chocolate Fudge Chip frosting.
Help.

My very first How About We date went well. I mean, I think it did….?
When I first met up with “peach”, i thought to myself…how short can dates be? But after quite a bit of talking, and our quick assessment that the bar TV AND sound was being tuned to the State of the Union, and a bunch of hipster democrats started taking up the place,...
First
Well- there is a first time for everything, right? First love. First Kiss. First time getting wastedddd in your parents basement.
For me- I am about to embark on my first “How About We” Date.
“Peach” contacted me last week- commenting on my date suggestion below:
“How about we… Grab a bite to eat at the Mexican Restaurant next to my apartment, then check...

Have you read the Happiness Project?
If not, I suggest you do. I am not going to lie- I have not yet finished the entire book, but it did motivate me to put together my own Happiness Project. (Which I did in my car ride home from Alabama to Maryland after Christmas Break- it was the only way to keep me sane).
I would describe the book as basically “do it yourself” therapy. I...

Won't you be my neighbor?
Walking up the stairs this evening, I noticed a lean, tattooed arm opening the door to the apartment next door to mine. This was a surprise, considering all the months I have lived in this building I do not recall any tattooed boys living on my floor- the only people I remember seeing in apartment C1 were 2 adults, approximately 3 kids and a handful of razor scooters. Where did this inked boy come...
I just knew moving to Park Slope was going to be a... →
I just discovered this new blog, and this is oh so frightfully true. I awoke this morning to approximatly 4 screaming children outside my apt building and the sound of “pattering” feet running around in the apartment above my head.
I think SG is in trouble =/
XOXO

I woke up this morning...
With a signature from a professional bull rider on my chest, and wearing a shirt that says:
Haiku’s are easy
But sometimes they don’t make sense
Refrigerator
I am still wearing the shirt, and I still have the signature. I have not left the couch all day. Jack Daniels is to blame. What a jerk.
XOXO,

“Meghan! You cannot drink on just grapes!” - Mariana”
– In a discussion with some friends during the Jersey Shore premier party, we came to the realization that Weight Watchers does not factor in the high levels of alcohol consumed by the normal social crowd of NYC. Solution? Just eat grapes. Grapes = 0 points. 4 glasses of wine = 16 points. Full day of...
F is for "Free Botox"!
I have learned to never say no to free. Free back massage after getting my nails done? (even though you’re really just PUNCHING me)- sure! Free shots at the bar?- Load. Em. Up. Free cab ride because your card “machine does not work”?- Don’t mind if I do, sir!
I was hesitant on Wednesday morning though when I was offered a free $400 ride on the Botulinum Toxin train. While...

I did it all by Myself!
Living alone is HARD. Don’t get me wrong, I love coming home to an apartment that is 100% Caroline approved. But lets face it single ladies, it gets super lonely and down right depressing at times.
In the last 5 months and 3 days of living alone I have made some discoveries of what it is like to be truly on my own. Below is a list of a few things I have realized during my first couple of...
