I’m not sure how to write this. It feels like I’ve been keeping this big secret from everyone and I want to stop stopping myself from being able to talk about it online.

Today is the first day of December and I am excited for a couple of reasons.
- Every Friday, my fav Em and I go on our morning coffee run and we get donuts! Our regular coffee haunt only has donuts on Fridays, and we like to indulge ourselves. Admittedly, we indulge ourselves far too often (Daiso, amiright?) but this has become a weekly routine and I look forward to it all week. Last Friday I had this incredible caramel donut and I was so happy.
