January 2020 Recap
Here’s a little January recap! Sharing what I did, what I bought, and a few favorites here and there.
HIGHLIGHTS
If you haven’t noticed, I’ve been a little quiet over here on the blog recently. Well, that’s because I moved! At the end of January, I packed up all my things and moved a little bit closer to home in James Island. I’ve always really loved James Island and I’m so happy an opportunity opened up and I was able to move here! Plus my commute to and from work has now been cut in half (really more than half!). I can’t complain with a 15-minute drive to the office!
WHAT I BOUGHT
WHAT I WATCHED
I was even more interested in all of the murder mysteries this month than I normally am and that’s all thanks to two Netflix series that came out in January – Don’t F**k With Cats: Hunting an Internet Killer and Killer Inside: The Mind of Aaron Hernandez. Both were so good. I was seriously on the edge of my seat the entire time watching Don’t F**k With Cats. I didn’t know much about Aaron Hernandez prior to watching the docu-series, but it was all very interesting. Have you seen either? Let’s chat about them!
WHAT I’M LISTENING TO
See more of what I’m listening to by following me on Spotify.
EXPLORING CHARLESTON
Boxcar Betty’s: This spot has been on my list for a while now, but as a vegetarian, I didn’t think there would be anything on the menu I could order. However, there is! All of their sandwiches can be ordered with portobello mushroom as opposed to chicken. Be sure to order their pecan pie in a cup – I’m still dreaming about it!
Coquin: This adorable little wine bar was the perfect spot for a night out with some of my favorite gals! We ordered a few glasses of rosé, a few tapas, and really had the best time! I will definitely keep this spot in mind when friends come into town and for girls nights.

Such a great month! Don’t F*ck with Cats and the Aaron Hernandez documentary were both really good. ALTHOUGH, I do have to say – Since I’m from Boston, the case was so heavily covered here that I felt like I knew a lot about the case from what was in the news. Especially with it not being that long ago! But, there were some very interesting things I didn’t know that the documentary covered which was cool.
