Shunning The Sun for The Storm

March 5, 2017 by Carrie @ poet in the pantry 1 Comment
Painting also kept me busy.

Four more days to go until I finally get in for my behavioral health appointment. It’s been a month of doing pretty much anything I could to keep my head above water. Knitting like crazy.

What kind of girls' weekend doesn't include cocktails? This is the Hemingway from Shell & Bones Oyster Bar and Grill in New Haven, Connecticut.

Just days away from my birthday–and with the celebration already in full swing–it doesn’t seem all that crazy to borrow a Long Duck Dong gem from Sixteen Candles for this post. Although there will be a lot more than 16 candles on my cake this year, and I am NOT sorry for that! I’ve moved … [Read more…]

A trip to NYC to see the new Ratchet & Clank movie!

April 25, 2016 by Carrie @ poet in the pantry Leave a Comment
My family and I were invited to a premiere for the new Ratchet and Clank movie in NYC! #ad #ratchetandclankmovie #sk

On a recent Saturday morning, my family and I boarded a train in Katonah, New York, to chug along to New York City. This was no ordinary day-trip, however. On this day, we were on a mission–to attend an advanced screening of the new Ratchet & Clank movie! For those who aren’t familiar, Ratchet and … [Read more…]
