I think March could be summed up in two words: cold and busy. The month absolutely flew by (I feel like they all do) but I'm not complaining considering warmer days and lots of exciting things are ahead. Some highlights from March: Many, many trips to Magnolia Bakery Apartment hunting (found the perfect place!) Client meeting after client meeting My first Blackhawks game! #TreatYoself Trips to Donut Vault Meeting a reader (hi Carrie!) over a fishbowl sized mocha The most perfect closet addition, new booties Early mornings at the office A fresh haircut and smooth…
