A little road trip to see Death Becomes Her at Pla A little road trip to see Death Becomes Her at Playhouse Square before it  comes to Columbus and it was SO worth it! I grew up loving the movie, so I was VERY curious to see how they’d turn this completely unhinged story into a musical, especially with all the special effects. And I might have to say…I loved the musical more than the movie. The costumes were incredible, the music has been stuck in my head ever since, Ken Marino is a star but so is the entire cast, and the whole thing was just so much fun.@deathbecomesher is coming to Columbus October 6–11. Please make sure you see it. @capacolumbus is kicking off their season with a bang and you don’t want to miss it.

I can never decide what to order because everythin I can never decide what to order because everything always sounds good, but actually SEEING what’s on the menu is always so helpful. So here’s a little visual guide to ordering at Good Energy Cafe in the Franklinton Arts District. Also, if you haven’t been to @goodenergycafes before, you have to check it out. Not only are their drinks delish, but their toasts are incredible. Just see for yourself! My personal favorites at the moment are the pumpkin s’mores chai (make mine dirty) and the it’s everything toast. But I’ve never had a bad bite or sip at Good Energy and the welcoming vibe makes it worth stopping by. 📍 421 W State St First Floor, Columbus, OH#columbus #columbusohio #cbusfoodscene #cbusfoodie #columbuscoffee @ideafoundrycolumbus @franklintonart

JORD Wood Watch Review+ Giveaway

Jamie says that one of my biggest love languages is gifts. That doesn’t mean that I need grand, expensive gifts lavished upon me for every special occasion or just because. But I do place great value on gifts given to me that are unique, interesting, meaningful and/or require some significant thought from the gift giver. This is also how I like to give gifts. In fact, a lot of times the gifts I give other people mean more to me than the ones I receive.

So what happens when you’re married to a man who’s a self-proclaimed minimalist who needs (or wants for) nothing? Let me tell you…I have the hardest time buying gifts for my husband for any and all occasions. This year, though, I think I’ve found the perfect thing: a JORD wood watch.

jord-frankie-dark-sandalwood-and-smoke-watch-5

Jamie’s wearing the Frankie watch in dark sandalwood and smoke. We both really liked the more classic, minimalist look and darker wood color to this watch. It’s also available in zebrawood, ebony and even purpleheart for those that like a little more color. It really suits Jamie, worn with a simple tee shirt and a pair of jeans, but I imagine it will also look sleek with a dress shirt and tie on our next date night. To be completely honest, Jamie doesn’t consider himself to be in-the-know on the latest style trends. He does, however, like my taste in style and doesn’t mind whenever I give his closet a little upgrade.

We were also able to have the watch custom-sized to Jamie’s wrist when we ordered it. We received the extra links in the package, so if at any point it needs to be resized, we can take it to a nearby jeweler to have it done. Speaking of the packaging, JORD knows how to create an experience. Jamie’s watch arrived in a stunning wood box and wrapped around a tweed pillow. . It was hard for me to remove the watch because I couldn’t stop admiring how amazing it looked in its packaging.

JORD has both men’s and women’s watches (click on the links to check out all the styles). They’re beautifully-made, hand-crafted timepieces. These unique wooden watches match my love for modern style with Jamie’s desire for simplicity. Sustainability and ethically-sourced materials are two things that are important to me when choosing items to purchase. I love that you can see on the JORD website where the materials for your watch were sourced from. I’m actually planning on adding a cool JORD wood watch to my own Christmas list this year.

Now for the GIVEAWAY! I’m so excited to tell you that I’ve teamed up with JORD watches to give one winner a $75 e-gift code to put towards the watch of his or her choice! And if you’re not generally super lucky (like me, because I rarely win anything), you’ll still want to enter. ALL entrants will get a $20 e-gift code automatically e-mailed to you just for entering. So if you’re adding a JORD watch to your Christmas list this year, you can save a little bit on it too! The e-gift codes expire 2/28/17, in case you’re a planner like me and are already thinking ahead to Valentine’s day. Entering is super easy – just click on the link below!

    I love the way this watch looks! Maybe one day, but we gifted ourselves fitness tracker watches last Christmas so it seems wasteful to have another. I’ll have to keep this in mind though…
