MEET THE TWO YANKEES & THEIR DOODLE
Hello and welcome! We are literally two Yankees and a Doodle!
My name is Crissy and I am from Reading, Pennsylvania – the home of the Reading Railroad and the former Outlet Capital of the World. Or, as I see it, the land of sandwich shops, pretzels and Wawa. My husband, Mr. Yankee, was born in New York City. His love of bagels and level of impatience really reflects that, despite having spent most of his youth and young adulthood in the South. The Doodle part of our dynamic is our girl Poppy. She is a sweet, lovable Miniature Goldendoodle. If you would like a regular dose of cuteness in your life, check out her Instagram @poppydoodlepoodle! https://www.instagram.com/poppydoodlepoodle/
Since getting together in 2011, we have moved to several different states, with Pennsylvania being the origin. We started out as the best of friends and stayed that way for over a year before the magic started. We left Pennsylvania to move to New York for two years and then to Arizona for another two years. While living in New York, in 2013, we got eloped on the beach on the Hawaiian island of Oahu. We currently reside in Texas, which is probably the last place in the USA where a Yankee should reside!
Throughout the years, we have enriched our minds and expanded our horizons, traveling to and living in various places. We travel often, enjoy going out for a good meal & adult beverage (or three!), take pride in our home and love, love LOVE our Doodle! We also try our hardest to eat healthy and exercise, typically following a low carb/paleo plan. But we are human and that approach isn’t always fun or doable. (Which is where the good meal out comes into play!) I try to spice things up (in the kitchen!) by trying new recipes often.
Join us as we share our love of all things travel, fashion, food, decor and Doodle. And by “we,” I mean ME. [Let’s be honest here…I’ll be doing most of the sharing since Mr. Yankee isn’t nearly as social!]
Xo,
Crissy
