Quarter Life & Cake: How I Spent My 25th Birthday Weekend
Turning 25 felt like the perfect mix of sweet, chaotic and low-key, which is basically everything I could’ve hoped for in a birthday weekend. I kicked things off on Saturday with a little trip into Philly to pick up a cake slice sample box from The Sugary.

A November to Remember
I don’t know about you, but I’m already looking back at November and feeling a little dizzy. It was one of those months where I barely had time to breathe, but I also wouldn’t trade a single second of it. You know how life has these seasons when you’re running on all cylinders and somehow still managing to enjoy it? That was my month. Well, I guess one can say that has been my year.
