welcome to the pulse! how is everyone? welcome to this month’s volume of the pulse, your go-to roundup of everything in the world of furniture, design, local boise tidbits & more. from new arrivals, to recipes to fonts - you’ll find it all here! i wanted to send a thought of gratitude for opening & loving my monthly blog. i know inboxes are overflowing these days & i truly appreciate you making space for the pulse in yours. let's talk about that pasta image in the header! alright, you all know how much i loved juniper & shared that they were closing a few volumes back. well, i finally got the courage to try the newest concept from STLG: rustica . (where juniper used to be) it’s beautiful, they left the old wood bar, and the pizza oven. we tried the burrata app (yum!) and i ordered the grande meatball! haha! yep there’s a huge meatball in there! it was great, and i can’t wait to try some of the pizzas!

let’s talk about our upcoming event. the pulse UNPLUGGED. it’s our free, after hours, RSVP only event. i will be releasing new event details in the upcoming pulse volumes & of course, i need your input, too! if you have always wanted to try the apps from previous pulse editions now is your chance!

hello my friends! i am writing this pulse right during the broncos niners game. 😬 go broncos! how is september for all of you? mine is busy as always & i'm sure you can relate! i ended up taking the trip to see my sister in SF over Labor Day weekend & it was a beautiful time. an andrew mcmahon concert, lots of yummy food & playing with my little nephew, bentley. the day after i left, she had the new baby! a little boy named henry. (missed him by less than 24 hrs!)

i hope you have all enjoyed a beautiful august. final summer trips, school starting & preparing to celebrate the end of summer with labor day weekend upcoming. carson and i had a fantastic trip to seattle. we stayed in an airbnb in fremont and took boat cruises from lake union to pier 54 & walked to t-mobile park. the mariner's lost the first game we went to but won the second! we had some amazing food & walked for miles! i love traveling with this little guy.

hello my friends! wow another month has zipped right along. i hope you all had a fantastic july. our boys took 2nd & 1st in each of their baseball leagues! other than that, my littlest brother got engaged, so planning all sorts of showers & parties as i have been asked to be maid of honor. ♡ i fly to walnut creek to visit my sister this weekend, and next thursday i fly out with carson to seattle to catch some M's games. i would love to hear about what you guys are up to, any suggestions for a trip to SF or brunch spots in Seattle. shoot me a line here !

well we made it through june & there is actually a PULSE for this month! (unlike 2021 when june flew passed me & i missed a PULSE volume!) as always we are wrapped up in baseball 4 nights a week & undefeated thus far! we got the pool up in the backyard, leave to McCall for 4th of july weekend - so just like all of you, i'm going a million miles an hour with a million things to do!

dear gentle-readers (anybody finish season 2 of bridgerton? thoughts? let me know here. ) how was your april? ours at MHF was great. the months are really cruising by. the only even worthy of this top section was that i went to tempe the first weekend of april for the billie eilish tour! i love tempe for it's desert architecture, ASU (where i went to school) and of course amazing SUN & food. here are a few snapshots ♡

hello dear readers, instead of boring you with words for an intro...please enjoy a few photos of my magical trip to portugal. wow. i would highly recommend the charming town of porto to anyone who loves cozy old europe full of cobblestone walkways and no major roads. beautiful tile work & unique doors at every turn.
