What’s it like to be a twin?

There are may famous twins in the media: the Weasley twins, Mary Kate & Ashley Olson, and, our favorite, Zac & Cody. Although the portrayal of twins is somewhat correct in movies, it only hints at the true joy of being a twin. Kayla and I celebrate being twins, but it wasn’t always that way.Continue reading “What’s it like to be a twin?”

Tips for Law School Interviews

During the application process, law school interviews are not usually required. I, however, had two different law interviews which both went very well, prompting me to get into both of the schools I interviewed with. Nevertheless, each interview was very different. They both were a one-on-one call (I have heard of friends having group interviews)Continue reading “Tips for Law School Interviews”

Twenty Seventh Heaven, South Spokane, WA

With a complicated name but straightforward approach, Twenty Seventh Heaven is a coffee hole-in-the-wall, unique find in South Spokane. They did not get the regulars they have from serving froo-froo lattes but rather from serving their coffee black (ok some cream) alongside one of their delicious baked goods. I’m talking bagels, scones, bread, pastries, fullContinue reading “Twenty Seventh Heaven, South Spokane, WA”

First Avenue Coffee, Spokane, WA

At First Avenue (aptly named for its location), their tag line is damn good coffee. I have to admit that I agree. I went here first thing on a Monday morning in hopes of starting my week off right. After missing the turn like five times (love one way streets), I eventually got parked. IContinue reading “First Avenue Coffee, Spokane, WA”

Usually, we are indecisive, but even more so today as we get to the front of the line and the menu is just brimming with unique creations. Who could blame us? Okay, we get to the front ofContinue reading “Coeur D’Alene Coffee Company”

Best coffee in Ceour dlane? Ceour delene? Ceour d’Alene.

We grew up in Spokane (40 minutes West of this city) and I cannot, to this say, spell this darn word. I mean really. But don’t let my misspelling deceive you, I lovvve this town—it’s not just me, though. It is currently the fastest growing city in the U.S.! I can see the appeal—a wideContinue reading “Best coffee in Ceour dlane? Ceour delene? Ceour d’Alene.”

One World, Moscow, ID

With each ring of the answering machine, I watched my dreams of going to a coffee shop start to slip farther and farther away. With no call back in sight, we decided to cut our losses and switch up our plan. With all intentions to go to one coffeeshop, my twin and I ended up atContinue reading “One World, Moscow, ID”
