Behind the Blogger

Hi Friends! If you’re new here, welcome!

It’s been awhile since I’ve shared some fun facts, a few things you may not know about me despite the perfectly polished photo you see on Instagram 😉

I’m McKenna, I’m a fresh 32. I like silence in Target, 70 degree & above weather, pizza with meat, a hefty pour of Cabernet, 90’s R&B slow jams and familiar faces. I’m a blogger and a professional wing-it kind of girl. I cuss a lot, but clean up well. I usually see the glass half full and stay away from Debbie downers. I have a cat named Muffin, if  she’s an indication of my parenting skills I should go ahead and cross that box off the list.

I love sparkly dresses, especially this gem from my girl Ripely Radar c/o

hey-girl-hey

I’m a colorful wall seeker and making kissy faces has always been a struggle.

1. I struggle at all things adulting, not sure how I make it through the world some days 

2. I’m obsessed with Brussels Sprouts

3. I prefer to eat outside  

4. I was an Aveda hairstylist for 8 years before I started blogging  

5. My heart swings back and forth between the need for routine and the urge to run

6. I’m emotional but not a big talker

7. Pretty sure there isn’t a shade of pink I don’t like

8. Music is my favorite thing in life, along with watching the sunset 

9. If I could do anything I would be a DJ 

10. I don’t like watching movies I’ve already seen 

11. I’m not a big fan of water, or at least not getting my hair wet

12. East Coast > West Coast 

13. I’m not a big spender on material things but will drop it all for an experience or an adventure

14. I’ve always wanted to do a fitness competition but I’ve accepted the fact I like booze and pizza more

15. If I could sit in front of a fireplace all day, I would 

16. I mumble 90% of the time & make up weird ass phrases daily, my own secret lingo

17. I have a terrible diet, bottom line is I’m just too lazy to cook or even buy groceries 

18. If I could change one thing in the world, it would be for Chick-fil-A to be open on Sunday’s

19. Funny people are the shit, I like to laugh, especially at myself

20. I like nicknames for my friends, PorkChop is my favorite

    It’s like we are two in the same ! Haha I thought I was alone in this world when it comes to the weird ass shit I say and struggle between running & routines!
    Don’t forgot those whiskey mornings and ripasso evenings!

    Awe I LOVED this post McKenna!! I also see your pretty photos but it’s so cool to actually get to know you! I didn’t realize we had so much in common! I too curse like a sailor, but clean up pretty well and make up my own words. Where on the east coast are you originally from? What brought you to san diego?

    I loved getting to know a little more about you! So cool that you used to be an Aveda stylist.
    PS- Meatzza (meat pizza) is my jam too.

    xoxo, Jenny

    So this is the first time I’ve left a comment on your blog. I do enjoy reading it! This post was by far my favorite! It’s nice to read the “real” about people you “know” from the internet. I am a good friend of John and Megan’s and I think ya’ll are adorable together! Thanks for the REAL.

  24. Gabriela Rego says

    I follow many bloggers and I never leave comments but you are by far the most REAL blogger. I love that! So many bloggers want to make it seem like they live in a fantasy world and to be quite honest, that’s annoying! Thanks for being a normal person!
