If you’re new to Mac & Cheese, welcome! Here’s a good place to start before diving into below… On the heels of Best Friend surprising me with a birthday present of a First Class upgrade on our Atlanta trip (first time flying since February 2020, kinda forgot how to do it!), my childlike joy Read more…
My yard sign collection has grown over the past year — Partly due to quarantine. Partly due to racial injustice. Partly due to my Selfish Sabbatical.

For Chattanooga recommendations, scroll to end, just above photos We’re back.
