Hello friends! I can’t tell you how happy I am that I finally have the time to sit down and write this post. Because I really do love the writing aspect of this blog–it makes me reflect on the ways in which I’ve been spending my time, almost like a journal–but it’s been difficult for me to set aside the time to write these past few weeks. The days have…
1) This post is dedicated to my dad, who toiled away at this video with me for the better part of the day on Saturday. Believe it or not, I shot the frames for this video in June but was met with many a Photoshop obstacle (considering the fact that I was trying to edit 450 photos into one stop-motion video, I should have seen this coming). 2) Not to make that…
Sitting here at our summer house in 75 degree weather, it’s hard to believe that the transition from summer to school is well under way. And though I’m about to go back to the city for my third week, things still do feel, well, transitional. These past three months have been so exciting, so rewarding and overwhelming, the seemingly constant switching of mindsets–from school to camp and back again–making…
Will someone please let me know how it's already August? After a slow first few weeks of settling into the camp routine (see my last post for more on that), the past four-ish weeks have sped by faster than I ever thought they could. I said goodbye to my first session campers on the 22nd (and if any of them are reading this, hello!) and had a little over 24 hours to…
Helloo from the Berkshires, friends! I've been here for over three weeks doing loads of camp counselor-y stuff (I'm now responsible for 9 other humans? Whaat?) and staying up late eating way too many slightly stale snacks. I'm loving my time here–the girls I'm on staff with have been some of my best friends for years and years, and I'm so happy to have the chance to spend the summer…
It's my birthday! And it's the first day of summer! Aaand by the time you're reading this I'll be frolicking in the woods of Massachusetts as an assistant counselor at my camp/second home. I'm actually sitting in the car driving up there as I type, and it still somehow hasn't hit me that I'm leaving for 9 weeks.…
Spring is HERE my friends, and I could not be more ready. This past week was tiring to say the least: my brother and I were on spring break, which meant a trip to my grandparents' house for Passover and then a week of college tours and lots and lots of driving. That being said, we also spent the week not keeping Passover and going to some great restaurants (if you're…
Ahh you guys! Crumbs and Nibbles is officially… 3! 3 years ago today a 13-year-old me decided to concentrate my obsession with baking in the form of a blog. I knew next to nothing back then (i.e. my photography process was pretty much point, shoot, and post), but immediately I found real joy in each step of the blogging process. My first post ever was called “A Weekend of Baking: Snickerdoodles.”…
Is it just me, or does Valentine's Day appear to be one of the most polarizing holidays out there? So many people seem to either love or hate it. And I guess each opinion has a grain of truth to it: to some it means a day of love, of appreciation of a significant other, or just a day to eat chocolate and be merry. To others, it represents one of…
Helloo! I am currently in our room here in Utah wrapped up in a fluffy robe and sitting on the carpet in front of the fire. I never want to leave. But, by the time you read this I will be home and trying to make the most of my last days of winter vacay. I'll be heading to Massachusetts for a New Year's reunion extravaganza, but other than that I will be…
