an archived personal and craft blog from Elise Blaha Cripe.
Headed out to Portland this afternoon. Paul's joining me tomorrow and we're both so excited for an awesome 3 day vacation with 30 minutes of amazing (and terrifying) speechmaking. I'll be Instagraming my life away, battling nerves, drinking coffee, breaking records, world dominating, eating doughnuts and probably putting a bird on it.
READY? SET? GO.
Whoooooooo!! GO ELISE! You are a rockstar. I’m so excited for you and can’t wait to read all about it.

Wishing you wild success! Started listening to this podcast on the way to work today – and need to listen to it over & over. Favorite part so far? “Say yes to things you’d make out with.” Nearly spit my latte out…

Good luck. It is a town to eat for sure. The coffee, food trucks and doughnuts are amazing, but craft beer is also pretty great. Have a great trip. I’m hoping your presentation will be accessible online somewhere. I dig the theme.
