Gift Guide for a Colorado Obsessed Stoner

@justhighlo December 19, 2020 No Comments

It might be too late for a Christmas Day delivery but it’s not too late to send some Colorado themed cheer to your favorite mountain-loving and cannabis smoking patron of locally made goods. I too have become a patron of locally crafted food, clothing, accessories, and decor since the start of the pandemic. So I have curated a list of perfectly easy, sure to please gift ideas from local makers from around Colorado. Including some of my

Tips for Hosting a Cannabis-infused Dinner Party

@justhighlo October 20, 2020 No Comments

It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to host a party at home. I miss it. I think the last opportunity we had to have a party was last year when we threw a little housewarming after we moved into our house. This house was made for entertaining. Laid out perfectly for a party both inside and out (even if there are some parts that need updating/fixing). It’s one of the things that

How to Shop for and Buy Quality Cookware on a Budget

@justhighlo October 10, 2020 No Comments

I’ve been pretty lucky in that my family has gifted me a lot of cookware over the years. When my grandmother was still alive there wasn’t a Christmas or birthday that she didn’t give me something to fill my kitchen with. At the time I was barely an adult and would often look at what she’d given me thinking, “Wtf am I going to do with a roasting pan? You’re the one who makes the

Pandemic Travel Tips

@justhighlo September 29, 2020 No Comments

Back in July, my husband and I took a trip back east to visit our families and finally collect the last of our belongings we’d left either in my hometown in New Hampshire or at his father’s house in Tennessee. For obvious reasons, we did not make a big production about this trip (although if you’re following me on Instagram, you may have seen some pics and videos on Stories). The whole trip felt like

Confessions of a Former Picky Eater

@justhighlo July 18, 2019 No Comments

“You have such will power.” An office worker in my elementary school said to me when I turned down a fancy chocolate in a fancy box. I laughed, understanding what she meant, even at 9 years old (which hello that’s fucked up), but knowing deep down inside the real reason is that I was nervous about the taste. That I wouldn’t like it and I’d have to show another adult just how picky of an

5 Tactics to Get Through a Bad Edible Experience

@justhighlo July 9, 2019 No Comments

I don’t want to sound too braggy but I’ve not had a bad edible experience yet. I’ve always been a little apprehensive towards substances in general and have always erred on the cautious side when it comes to cannabis edibles. However, I’ve seen a handful of friends have a bad time with either edibles or smoking to know what you need to do in the event of a bad trip. The most important thing to

5 Easy Fixes to Get Back into Your Routine After a Slump

@justhighlo June 26, 2019 No Comments

I think it’s very important to take time off. You need to recharge and relax. It’s just as important as getting things done. We are not machines, but even if we were… machines break down from overuse, too. However, as easy as it is to sit down and give yourself a time out, it’s equally as hard to get back on track. Especially if you let that break drag on a little longer than you

The Do’s and Don’ts of Attending a Comedy Show

@justhighlo June 26, 2019 No Comments

My first date with my husband was seeing Bill Burr at Comedy Works in Denver. Both of us are kind of obsessed with stand-up. It’s our thing. There are few comedians we don’t enjoy. Together, we’ve seen some incredible acts. Legends like Dave Chappelle and Dave Attell. And nearly every funny woman who’s come through Comedy Works: Chelsea Peretti, Christina P, Ali Wong, Nicole Byer, Fortune Feimster. I’ve never left a show with a bad thought

Valentine’s Day Gifts For Stoners

@justhighlo February 6, 2019 No Comments

I’m not going to lie and pretend that Valentine’s day is something I actually care about because I don’t. Like most holidays, it’s another day to me. I’m like a thousand times more excited for the day the community pool opens in the spring than I am about Valentine’s Day. Yet, I’m not going to leave you high and dry this V-day. I have some fantastic ideas for a stoney valentine’s day. Also, my winter
