ABOUT ME

Hello, sunshine! My name is Ashley Fine, and I'm a design and food blog junkie. I pine for a career at a shelter/lifestyle magazine. Editing and design make me feel twitterpated and grin from ear to ear. I started reading Real Simple in 10th grade (nerd alert), and I still mourn the passing of Blueprint and Domino. I'm a military spouse (thanks to Flyboy), so life is ever changing and not as conducive to a career as I'd hoped. Despite this minor detail, it's been a brilliant adventure! Here's my attempt at keeping in touch with family and friends while sharing random happy thoughts, memories, and fabulous finds! Take a gander at One Fine Day to see what inspires me most.

And while we're at it, here are a few of my favorite things, in no particular order...

Flyboy, Max, Tripp, and Beesly
