There was this thing I used to do where I walked outside and enjoyed nature. It was nice. I was thinking recently about how much I missed that, but I found a good cold-weather option! There’s a conservatory/greenhouse at a park just south of downtown (Garfield Park, for my Indy people), so we went for the first time over the weekend. Technically, it was Valentine’s Day. Cute, right? We bundled up in 10 layers so we could survive the walk from the car to the balmy, tropical paradise.

Anyway, I thought I should explain where these photos were taken. Otherwise you might wonder if I had gone on vacation and not checked the forecast before I packed.

Stay warm, friends and frenemies! And in case you missed it, be sure to enter the Mint Julep Boutique giveaway!

I was in the South with the in-laws for Thanksgiving, and I escaped my acquired family for one day to visit my sister Kathryn in Asheville. We’re not really gab on the phone for hours a week sisters. We’re more like have a beer and make fun of each other once a year sisters. I like our way better.

We had an awesome boozy brunch at Biscuit Head, then walked all over downtown checking out the shops. Naturally, we were tired after that and had to sit down and drink again. Then Kathryn photobombed me as only an annoying little sister can do:

By the way, how great are these boots?! I love them. Of course, in true sibling fashion, Kathryn asked me if I was going to ride horses later. MAYBE I AM, BITCH. (Love you, sis.)
