Hey there, I realized I haven’t properly introduced
myself in a while.
I’m Mischa- a pasta-loving, tea-drinking woman with a deep appreciation for the little things, comfort, curiosity, and a little bit of chaos. My mornings always start with a glass of the hottest herbal tea possible, and my evenings often end with me convincing myself this is the week I’ll finally bake everything I’ve bookmarked. I love baking and cooking, probably should’ve been a dessert chef or food blogger, and definitely own more recipe books than I’ve actually cooked from (ambition counts, right).
I have a massive music collection and somehow know the words to every song, and I re-watch ER and Gilmore Girls every year like it’s a ritual. I read mostly on vacation, because that’s when my mind finally slows down enough to stay with a book and I’ve definitely caught the travel bug. I’m not trying to see every national park, but I do love the kind of travel that ends with a beautiful view, good food, and a sense of awe (easy to medium challenging hiking preferred but spas more my speed).
I became a plant mom during COVID, and things escalated quickly. My fiddle leaf fig is now touching the ceiling and I’ve officially run out of vertical space. I’d describe my lifestyle as semi-crunchy: herbal tea, yoga, intentional living… but not quite ready to go full crunch. A little grounding, a little practicality, and a lot of doing the best I can.
Now that you know a bit about me, I’d love to know — what’s something that brings you comfort lately?
