On Monday, Ben and I received word that our home interior was finished — so we went to Minnesota today! There are still some finishing touches for us to complete once we close in March — particularly adding light fixtures everywhere and possibly adding some paneling or wainscoting. Otherwise, everything has come together really beautifully, […]
One aspect of moving I am really excited about is having a home office. Right now, Ben and I are both working from bedrooms; my desk is in our bedroom, and his desk is in our guest bedroom. When I first became a small business owner, I was uncertain about the necessity of a dedicated […]

At first, we wanted an all-white kitchen. Then, everything changed.
Ben and I are moving to Minnesota in spring 2021! (All the details about our move can be found here!) We’re building a house in Minnesota, and we just finished up the “design” portion of our home building process.
