When I'm in a new city, I like to walk as much as possible. In my mind, it makes it easier for me get my bearings and it helps me to see as much as possible of a new place.

No sleep till Brooklyn*
On Friday, despite Mother Nature’s attempt to disrupt my plans, I ventured down to Williamsburg, Brooklyn to attend my uber talented neighbor, Ken Ragsdale’s art show opening at the Front Room Gallery. As someone who doesn’t often attend gallery openings (read: hardly ever), I was a bit out of my element, and, as a person … Continue reading No sleep till Brooklyn*
Are you ready to take a ride? Read The Girl on the Train!
I’m a little off my pace this year in terms of how many books I’ve read – I’ve only got 14 titles on my list so far for 2015.

This awesome community partnership will provide additional classes for each subsequent Saturday this month … Continue reading Hot yoga, even when it’s not hot
Running to hide in the dark
It's times like this that make me understand the appeal of going to the theater to see a movie. Or three.
