one: the one where we meet the authors.

it all started with hard wood floors and exposed brick walls, a guy named aaron, and drinks at fado's.

before we knew it, it was january 1, 2010, and we had signed a lease. only 2 of us had jobs in the city, but our hopes were high. since that cold january day, we've had not a few adventures, and the list continues to grow. and because our lives are just so spectacular, we felt the need to share.

rachel h: she's our favorite barista and she can be yours too! she can't have dairy but let us just say...she is opening our eyes to whole new world of non-dairy products! she loves to travel and live in the city, eat avocados and drink tea out of handmade mugs from germany. dance party? no problem, she'll bust a move and possibly flash you if we're at a wedding!

rachel k: she's come a long way from the town that's famous for its new year's eve pickle drop. her fantastic decorating taste has made our house look like it's worthy of being in the anthropologie catalogue, even though nothing is actually from there. she's our household gardener, she dreams of having her own bakery, she loves her new chucks, and she's on a first-name basis with her local starbucks barista. buy her a newcastle draught and you'll be her friend forever.

sarah: a short and sassy redhead, she knows a lot about michael jackson, and looks great in leggings. she has almost every episode of "friends" memorized, and her sentences often start with, "did you see the one where...?" her preschool students have created some prize works of art that hang on her bedroom walls. and she's never met an aussie snack she hasn't liked.

crystal: you'd think that someone who hails from Vermont wouldn't be as cold as she always is. she comes from a long background of mennonites, and likes to eat animal crackers. she often comes home with various bites and scratches inflicted upon her by her students. we, as her roommates tell her to quit her job almost everyday!
