Smitten with Salzburg

After spending a couple of hours becoming familiar with Salzburg’s historic and beautiful city center, I returned to the flat and collected my son. There was so much more to experience! We didn’t really have a plan, but I wanted him to see this picturesque city and there seemed to be plenty with which to … Continue reading Smitten with Salzburg

Lost and Found: Sunday yoga

The first outdoor yoga class I took left me unimpressed with the experience. I recall it being a little annoying - there were all kinds of bugs, my mat wasn’t even on the bumpy and lumpy ground and grass got all over everything. Instead of the setting enhancing the experience, for me, it was a … Continue reading Lost and Found: Sunday yoga

Friday night, after far too long of a separation, my friend Will and I reunited for an evening of fun and food.

This is what happens when you raise foodie kids. We arrived … Continue reading Restaurant Navona

Deliver this love letter to 15 Church

I’m almost embarrassed to admit this, but I had dinner last week for the first time ever at 15 Church. I’ve been there a number of times for drinks or something to eat on the patio, but as for sitting down and getting the full 15 Church soup to nuts treatment, well, this was my … Continue reading Deliver this love letter to 15 Church

Thoughts inspired by dinner at Enzo29

Americans are always the loudest. They want everyone to hear them but they don’t know how to listen. I want to softly tell the table of 6-Got-SUNY-semester-abroad written all over them, (unfortunately not in invisible ink), that I adore their enthusiasm and excitement but couldn’t they enjoy themselves just as much if they spoke in … Continue reading Thoughts inspired by dinner at Enzo29
