Amys place (right next to nostalgia) for the best breakfast ever
Federal Hill for: dessert at pastiche, Italian markets, and dancing in the square (I think dancing is weekend nights in the summer)
East side pockets on Thayer street- cheap and always great. Walk around Thayer and browns campus afterwards.

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
