All The Things in My Work-from-Home Paradise I Can’t Live Without Have you ever wanted to have your own special space where you can be creative and get away from the world? With all manner of foster kids, dogs and surprise long-term guests, getting a space of my own – outside the four walls of my house – was imperative if I ever wanted to work another productive day in my life. Plus, the deadline for my memoir was fast approaching and there was no way I was going to get it done amid the insanity of day-to-day life. I needed an office of my own.  Enter my She Shed from Coastal Portable Bui ..read more

Please note Rae and I were hosted by Margaritaville at Sea. All opinions, as always, are our own. Ahoy, mateys! Are you looking for a vacation that combines glorious sunshine with uplifting music?

What’s up, friendos?! How are you feeling with the holidays in the rear view? It’s always a bit of a relief to get past the hubbub – that now seems to start in September for some reason. Don’t get me wrong, I love the holiday season. Sparkly lights and special Starbucks drinks and cookies out the wazoo. It’s just a lot of prep and hustle to make it all happen. And by the end, I’m so tired. (And so full of sugar. So very full.) In my family we started a tradition a few years ago where instead of going all out on gifts at Christmas, we focus on making each person’s birthday special through ..read more

For the ultimate great American adventure, don’t miss an autumn road trip in Asheville, North Carolina. Not only is scenery incredible and perfect for couples or families, but you can drive through the mountains of the Blue Ridge Parkway and see the leaves changing color, or hike to a scenic overlook to enjoy the views. There are also plenty of romantic places to stop for a picnic lunch by a waterfall or an evening campfire. If you’re looking for an unforgettable experience, a fall road trip through Asheville, NC, is the perfect choice. Sadly I can’t offer you a tree surgeon-guided trip like I ..read more

Hey friendos! Since last we met here at the virtual campfire, there’s been a pretty solid mix of wonderful experiences and really difficult ones. What’s new, Ange?  If I could choose all the good stuff and none of the bad, I sure would. But that’s not how life works. (If you elect me as Student Body President, I will totally work on all this. Plus Gatorade in all the water fountains.) For now, here’s a little glimpse at the highs and lows from the past 90 days.  Highs COMING TO A BOOKSTORE NEAR YOU The hardest secret I ever had to keep is finally out – I got a book deal! Thank you a ..read more

Can you think of anything better than having your own private space to escape to? A place where you can relax, be yourself and do whatever you want? Me neither. Which is why every woman needs her own She Shed. What’s a she shed, you ask? Basically, it’s a small backyard building or garden structure that’s all yours – perfect for weekend relaxation sessions, girl time with the besties or just getting some peace and quiet away from the family. Plus, they come in all sorts of adorable styles these days so you can really make them your own. Interested in learning more? Keep reading for everything ..read more

Hey friends! Just joining us? We’ve had a few huge announcements around here this month! First, I celebrated 16 years of blogging with a big giveaway of travel goodies and a 4-night Airbnb stay.

And now, the biggest news yet: I am positively incandescent with joy to announce I’ve signed a book deal with Worthy Publishing, part of H ..read more

The Jet Sisters are ready to travel again and we’re taking you on our next adventure!  Remember in 2020 when we launched three group trips and then Covid promptly blew that up like a week later along with a couple years worth of career plans? Well, in the words of Sir Elton John, we’re still standing. And it’s time to get back out there! But where should we go?! When I was 16, I traveled overseas for the first time. When RaeRae turned 16 twelve years later, I took her abroad. Now that @AngieAway is 16, there’s only one way to celebrate… ok, two ways. Enter our giveaway for a free 4-night ..read more

Some things just get better with age… wine, compound interest, cast iron skillets, me and my blog! August has always been a momentous time in the AngieAway universe. I moved to NYC in August 2006 and started this unpredictable journey as a blogger. Years later, I brought my sister on full time in August and officially launched The Jet Sisters’ show into the world. It feels like an eternity has passed between those early days when I wrote about the silly mishaps and relationship disasters I faced as a twenty-something in the Big Apple to now, when I find myself as one of the veterans of this in ..read more
