Coffee Conversations with a Purple Girl
Good morning friends! We’re back from a lovely vacation to Presque Isle in Erie, PA. This was basically a recreation of my childhood vacations, because I don’t actually know how to vacation else where, apparently. When we were thinking about doing a trip for our anniversary, naturally the first thing that popped into my head […]
I remember watching the news just to see if there was school tomorrow. I remember scanning the schools as they scrolled across the bottom of the screen, hoping that mine would be there. There’s really nothing like a snow day, especially when you’re a kid and you have a big hill to sled on. It’s […]
It’s March, guys, and you know what that means? Shamrock shakes are back at McDonalds. Okay, there are lots of other important things about March: spring is almost here, Lent started, which means fish fries are a thing again, daylight savings time starts up again… or ends again? I’m never sure which. Anyway, lots of […]
I was scrolling through my Facebook memories this morning, as I often do, when I came across a post I made six years ago. It was about 1 in the morning and I wasn’t asleep because I’d just graduated high school and it was summer. Sleep didn’t happen until like 3 at least. So I […]

Do you ever get home from something in the middle of the day, have a few hours to kill and think, “You know what I want to do? I want to do this super random thing that I haven’t done in a long time?” This was me yesterday afternoon after a coffee date with a […]
Homecoming is a very special time of year. I never got homecoming for high schools, probably because I went to a high school without a football team and with very few alumni at the time. Still, the idea of going to back to high school to watch a foot ball game is so foreign to […]
My birthday is coming up at the end of the week, but my husband couldn’t wait to give me my present. Okay, so I couldn’t wait to get my present. But really, if someone asked you when you wanted your present, would you seriously tell them to wait until your actual birthday to give it […]
Once again I come to you in a rather half asleep state. My husband has dragged me from our bed so that I can blog like a good grown-up, but you can’t really drag the sleepies from a person. I am sleepy and my throat kind of hurts and I’m praying it’s not the beginning […]
