Whoa guys, I'm awful about keeping up this blog. I'm sorry. Life has a way of sneaking up on you when you least expect it, and I know I woke up today wondering where in the heck time has gone! There have been so many changes in my life that I don't even know where to start. But I digress.... on Sept. 7, I'm moving into my new abode. To say I'm excited is an understatement., What I'm working with is small,...
During a weekend of extreme boredom last fall, I created a couple of burlap wreaths. I liked them, they were quick, easy, cheap, and added just the right touch of rustic warm to the apartment. Apparently everyone else enjoyed them as much as I did, because I've gotten non stop compliments! I was finding similar wreaths on Etsy for upwards of $70, which makes this $10 project even more of a steal! So, for those...
Can I be honest for a second? I love covers. I mean, I LOVE covers. It's always interesting to see how an artist takes something and makes it their own; how they shape the music and can completely change the feel of a song. One of my favorite artists lately is Ben Howard, and he's done a spectacular cover of Carly Rae Jepson's super annoyingly catchy tune "Call Me Maybe." I'll be the first to admit...
June is always one of my favorite months. It's not 115 degrees just yet, people tend to be in good spirits, and I don't have class every day. June will get no complaints outta me. To start this fabulous month, today's song of the day is "Sweet" by Tullycraft. This Seattle based twee pop band just makes me happy. I love their simplicity, and having been together for nearly over a decade and a half,...
Allow me to explain my absence! I've been so crazy busy with life that I haven't had much time or energy to update. I'm also working this summer, so my normal care free days have been replaced by scrambling to and from a job. But, I haven't forgotten about my little blog, and I wanted my posts to be thought out instead of just slapped down.
For this Thursday, my song of the day is one that has been...
*Since I forgot to post this yesterday.
Wednesday is a notoriously tough day. You're just into the week enough to feel drained, but not quite far enough along to see the light at the end of the tunnel. This morning, I woke up at 6 am, and although it is almost noon, I am still just as groggy as I was upon waking. To counter the mid week blues, one needs good music. Brand New's "Fork...
Yesterday was a pretty awesome day, and I expected today to be just as incredible. Since I was anticipating smooth sailing ahead, today's song of the day fits that outlook perfectly. Look the Other Way from Justin Townes Earle just keeps me groovin'. After a busy day at work, I blast this song in my car, put my sunglasses on, roll the windows down, and enjoy the wind on my face. It's a simple, no fuss...
For all of you who know me, it'll come as no surprise that I love music. In order to keep up with tunes that I can't get out of my head as well as have a reason to update this blog, I've decided to post about one song every day that is sticking out to me for some reason or another. So, let's get to it, shall we?
Clam, Crab, Cockle, Cowrie by Joanna Newsom is today's song. Admittedly,...
