I need a vacation.

It’s true. I had a nice, long break from work over the holidays, but two days in and I’m already craving a global getaway. It might sound dorky, but I can sit and play with Google Maps for hours, simply because I think it’s so fun to dream about all the amazing places one could [...]

Pardon my French

Quite a while ago, I think I mentioned the fantastic illustrations and stationery of Hanna Brooks Nation (aka, Gadabout). If you haven’t ever checked out her designs, you simply must head over to her website right this second and ogle. In fact, I did that a few days ago, as it had been several months [...]

Wine Not? A Guide to Great Wines this Holiday

Figuring out which wines to have on hand for Thanksgiving can be intimidating, especially if you’re planning on hosting a huge crowd (with varying palettes to match). I’m here to tell you that you can stop your worrying — there’s really no “perfect” wine to pair with Thanksgiving dinner, because there are simply too many [...]

Ten Things Tuesday: High Heeled Oxfords!

Well, I couldn’t resist sharing my favorite products on the other end of the spectrum — those that I’m willing to shell out some coin for. Beauty secrets should be shared, after all! Which reminds [...]

Ten Things (and more) Tuesday: Blogging 101

It’s hard to believe, but little ‘ole VMAC+ Cheese is well over two years old. It seems just like yesterday I was signing up on WordPress.com, inputting some general information, and wham bam, found myself the owner of a blog. Though we’re still a few months shy of the new year, if I had to [...]

Ten Things Tuesday: Drugstore Finds

Though a few staples come to mind that I will always purchase from Sephora, that great mecca of beauty (this, this, and especially this included), the reality is, very few of us can afford to buy only high end cosmetics and personal care products. To that end, I’ve done a good bit of experimenting with [...]

Ten Things Tuesday – Birthday Edition

Now look, I’m not one to draw my birthday out into a birthweek, so I promise, this is the last you’re going to hear about it. But I was thinking about how it’s been well over a decade since I became a teenager, and that while it feels like so much time has passed, it [...]
