It’s not a huge secret that I absolutely love living in Colorado during all times of the year. My summers are full of hiking trips and my winters are full of weekend skiing. I have to confess though, we are currently in the midst of one of my favorite times of year: the transition season. … Continue reading »

I should stick to mountains
I don’t know why but I have been dying to go to Beta for the past two years. Beta is basically the quintessential night club in Denver. I mean apparently LeBron James was there a few weeks ago? You might be thinking to yourself right now that Beta doesn’t really seem like my kind of … Continue reading »
Evening bike ride + ice cream = perfection
Do you ever have those nights where you know you should exercise but the prospect of going for a run sounds like the least fun thing ever? That was my night on Tuesday. After getting home from a full day of work and evening ESL tutoring, I was exhausted. But I also knew that I … Continue reading »
An open letter to Tim Tebow
Dear Tim, Can I call you Timmy? Timmy, I want to start out by saying that this isn’t an easy letter for me to write in the least. You’re a great guy. How could anyone not like you? You have done nothing but work hard, give back to the community and inspire Christians across the nation. Seriously, … Continue reading »
National Pancake Day > Leap Day
National Pancake Day, which was today, just might be my new favorite holiday. All I’m saying is that Leap Day has a lot to live up to tomorrow. Breakfast of champions. I’m not much of a cook, but I do make a mean bagel egg sandwich and pancake. I mean I guess if I have … Continue reading »

Paula’s Top of the Town
Every year 5280, which is Denver’s magazine cleverly named after the elevation of the city (Coloradans may or may not be obsessed with altitude), names the Top of the Town in its July issue. I love reading through this issue and finding new places to explore and try, and I had been intending on releasing … Continue reading »
One love
I found a $50 bill while walking on Broadway today with my friend Claire, which I feel is basically a metaphor representation of my life these days: awesome. The past week of my life has consisted of snowshoeing, hiking the Incline, skiing in Breck, brunching, and grad school prom. I really have few complaints. Well … Continue reading »
Denverlandia: Put a feather on it
My friend Claire recently introduced me to wonderful Portlandia. Put a bird on it anyone? This inspired me to think about my beloved Denverlandia. What is our thing? Feathers my friends, feathers. Not that there’s anything wrong with feathers. Personally, I love feathers. I even recently got feathers in my hair. Now for my Missouri … Continue reading »
Weekend warriors
For the first time since August 2010, I actually spent an entire weekend in the Denver city limits. My friends and I went skiing in Vail on Monday and in Keystone on Friday, and we stuck around Denver for the weekend. On a side note, Keystone was a lot of fun on Friday. Seven inches … Continue reading »
Mile High throwback
My great intentions for apartment decorating have fallen by the wayside over the past few weeks. The problem is that once you get a space to a certain degree of livability it’s sometimes hard to continue to be motivated to decorate. Combine that with a crazy work and school schedule and therein lies the current … Continue reading »
