We are entering my favorite time of year! I love Chicago in the fall! We’re getting closer to the holidays and I feel like fall is a great time to spend with loved ones. Fall also means weather is cooling down so it’s perfect time to grab a book and sit by the fire. Here’s... Continue Reading →
Happy August! If I'm being honest, not a lot of creativity running through my head for this intro so just kind of winging it.
