This blog was updated regularly from the summer of 2011 to the summer of 2020 by me (Samantha Penner). The impetuses for starting this blog were a boring desk job, an overactive imagination, and my own first apartment to decorate.
What ultimately came of this small corner of the internet was an entirely new career path, lifelong friends, occasional oversharing, two cross-country moves, but most notably, my own voice.
The party is over on this blog (but please continue enjoying the content from years past), and my new writing venture can be found over on Substack, here.
I hope you'll join me there!
