Entertainment – Hive and Nest

Oh, hey! Remember me? The thought of editing all my daughter’s wedding pictures to put on this blog caused me so much stress that I never did it. Procrastinating is my superpower! So here it is exactly three years later and I figured that I might as well just get… Read More We’ve had some time to recover from India and Ethan’s wedding, so it’s finally time to get a post up with all the details. It was a very DIY wedding, due to the fact that I am me and why wouldn’t I do as much as I could? Also, the… Read More These weren’t the worst movie of last year. These were the ones I personally didn’t like at all. This list isn’t as long as my “favorites” list, because I tried to avoid movies that looked bad to begin with (which is why The Secret Life of Pets isn’t on this list.)… Read More Yesterday I went to see LaLa Land (normally a hater of musicals I can’t believe how much I loved it.  Like, seriously, loved) and as I walked out of the theater I thought that it will definitely be on my top 10 list of movies for 2017. Although really it… Read More In case you missed this little detail, I live in Austin, Texas. Right now in Austin it’s SXSW. Which, for those who live under a rock or are just over the age of 60, is a super-mega-gigantic movie/music/gaming/computer festival that lasts for a week and a half. It also transforms… Read More We started off our third day in London by eating a lovely breakfast made at home. I was particularly in love with this egg carton we got at the grocery store around the block.   We then headed from our place in Russell Square . . . . . .… Read More After a stop at TKTS to buy theatre tickets first thing in the morning, we headed off to The British Museum. Or as I like to call it, The British Museum of Pillaging and Thievery. Due to the British having the biggest and strongest army/navy for so many centuries, they’ve… Read More My British accent is more like Jennifer Coolidge’s in Austenland but maybe if I watch this video a few more times I’ll get the hang of it. Which accent is your favorite? By Hildie | Filed under Entertainment, Good Things, Places I’ve Gone, Videos 3 Comments Share I am a very visual person. If I want to understand or remember something I have to see it. I have never cared for being read to (at least not since I was a kid) because hearing something means so much less to me than reading something. Also, it takes… Read More I really, really love Instagram (you can find me @heyhildie). I used to fight it because I hated the idea that all my pictures have to be square. Now I accept square-ness (and I know how to get past that if I need to). Instagram is kind of like Facebook… Read More This is one of my most popular posts and I like to repost it every year in case you’ve got a houseful of bored (hence, annoying) kids and need to know how to keep them occupied without relying on TVs/vieogames/ipads to babysit them. This is a great way to keep… Read More
