Coffee with the Husband: National Coffee Day 2015

Coffee with the Husband: National Coffee Day on Katie Crafts https://www.katiecrafts.com

Hey everyone! Today is National Coffee Day and I absolute LOVE coffee (technically it should be International Coffee Day and even more technically it should officially take place on October 1st according to Wikipedia, but everyone else seems to be celebrating today so we’ll go with it). I took this chance to commandeer the blog from Katie for a day so I could give you some super interesting factoids to read about coffee while you sip your favorite morning drink– hopefully coffee but if it’s something else don’t worry, I love you all equally!

Even if infographics aren’t your thing, don’t forget to check out where you can get your National Coffee Day freebies today! Continue reading Coffee with the Husband: National Coffee Day 2015

Wordless Wednesday: Vatican City

Wordless Wednesday: Vatican City

On our honeymoon to Italy, we crammed a lot of awesome stuff in to our small trip. One of the things we visited while in Rome was the Vatican. This was a view from the window of St. Peter’s Basilica (or the Sistine Chapel… I can’t remember which). I’ve always been a huge fan of city views, but the ones in Italy definitely take the cake.

New York Comic Con 2014 Recap!

New York Comic Con 2014 Recap

Last Friday, October 9th, I headed to Manhattan for New York Comic Con at the Javits Center! The Husband and I go every year, though we usually hit it up on a Saturday. Last year was insanely horrifically packed, so we were pretty lucky to get Friday tickets this year instead. It was still difficult to navigate the crowds at times, but all-in-all I think a better experience. We saw as much as we could, took pics when we remembered to (which wasn’t as often as we should have!), and ate and bought a lot of stuff! Husband came home with 8 new comics and an adorable print that we’ll hang in our kitchen, and I came home with a couple comics, stickers, a magnet from one of my favorite vendors that I buy from every year, an NYCC shirt, a couple totes and some cute pins- not to mention a plethora of random free stuff! Continue reading New York Comic Con 2014 Recap!
