I’m excited to share Julie of Julia is Coco and Cocoa with you today because she’s someone I’d like to meet for coffee and just get lost in the conversation. She get’s it, and I know that because I read this post where she writes, “I blog because creating things helps me relax. And while I knit I often find a lot of clarity. I blog to give myself a place to be me.” I know that’s why I started this site.
Julie is a knitter and crocheter, boy mom, Gilmore Girls fan, and confesses that she watches too much tv. See? You want to meet her for coffee too, I’m sure.
In the mean time, get to know Julie here.

I can vouch that Julie is indeed someone you would love to get lost in a conversation with. She’s my sister, best friend, and the nicest (while simultaneously the most sincere) person on the planet. I love her blog because she doesn’t put on pretenses and is completely genuine.
