If I could just take a moment to publicly acknowledge the fact that I'm blessed with a lovely life, I'd really feel like the elephant in the room would disappear. It seems here that my life is a perpetual cycle of Sunday dinners, vacations and NYC weekends. And, it is. But, please don't think for … Continue reading Blessings

Making Tracks to Wellfleet
We're off today for our annual visit to Cape Cod, so postings for the next two weeks will be sparse, if not nonexistent. We've visited the Cape every summer since 1999 and it is a tradition we all look forward to enjoying each year. Our first few years, we stayed in the Harwichport or … Continue reading Making Tracks to Wellfleet
Arugula – My Latest Obsession

I remember a cool monkey bridge, early morning swims in a lake hidden by … Continue reading Camp
Market Trek
Inspired by my previous post, I decided to blow off Spinning class this morning in favor of a real bike ride outside. Not one of those 25 milers on my road bike today, though. Instead I hopped on my old faithful, Trek, and rode to Troy to reap some harvest at the Farmer's Market. The … Continue reading Market Trek
