It’s fall, y’all

Posted on September 22, 2017 by Lost in London

Or as the Brits say, “autumn.” Whatever, tomato tomahto. One helps you remember how daylight savings works. The other… doesn’t. So. It has been awhile. There have been changes. Lots of changes. I’m now model thin, eat well, spend money … Continue reading →

Lavender fields forever

Posted on August 6, 2017 by Lost in London

I wrote Dr. Shaggy an email begging him to extend my second chapter draft until Wednesday. Rather than using my extra days wisely, I have continued to waste them. Today, I chose to waste them by going to Mayfield Lavender … Continue reading →

Declaring a war on spiders 

Posted on July 6, 2017 by Lost in London

This has been sitting in my draft folder for a few weeks now, so any “yesterday” and “other day” references are completely inaccurate. Not that it matters.   The other night I was awoken from my snoozing. I am not … Continue reading →

They’ve changed library hours

Posted on June 26, 2017 by Lost in London

I had my birthday recently. First birthday I’ve ever had away from family – which is weird to consider. I was worried it would be really hard. Birthdays aren’t a huge deal after a certain age, and it’s not like … Continue reading →

But who bought the basil plant?

Posted on June 4, 2017 by Lost in London

I’ve been watering a little basil plant which has been sitting in our kitchen window. I thought it was strange Melanie bought it, because who eats THAT much basil (at least in our house)? Every time it started to get … Continue reading →

It is impossible for me to neatly eat a croissant

Posted on May 12, 2017 by Lost in London

How do people manage? This is a legitimate question. Every time I attempt to eat a croissant, it is a massacre. There are flakes of pastry everywhere – places I know it should be impossible for pastry to get in … Continue reading →

Clean up, clean up, everybody everywhere!

Posted on May 4, 2017 by Lost in London

If you watched Barney, chances are you remember that little ditty. It’s no secret (at least to those who know me well) that I’m not a big fan of litter. I’m not really sure when it happened, but at some … Continue reading →

“Goddesses, whores, wives, and slaves: women in classical antiquity”

Posted on April 27, 2017 by Lost in London

This is the title of a book I used in my last essay. Don’t try and tell me history can’t be interesting! I was discussing the title with my oldest sister, and had to wonder if there was a reasoning … Continue reading →

No cake for you

Posted on April 7, 2017 by Lost in London

I had a weird moment in the British Library on Wednesday when attempting to get a treat from the cafe. I decided to forego my imaginary diet I’ve been “about to start” for the past year and get myself a … Continue reading →
