The Super Bowl was already weeks ago (Remember? The Patriots won. Again.) but there’s something I’ve been thinking about ever since the big game...why would celebrities, like really rich and successful public figures, appear in advertisements or commercials about products which they weren’t enthusiastic about truly using?

(The) freedom of obligation
Wow, January! You were really something. During your calendar page time, I made my way home from California, spent an evening with friends in New Paltz and had a quick getaway to Miami Beach.

I take my yoga somewhat seriously, preferring a … Continue reading Getting your goat – goat yoga at June Farms

Instead of the setting enhancing the experience, for me, it was a … Continue reading Lost and Found: Sunday yoga

I’ve taken a lot of yoga classes over the years, both locally and while traveling. My favorite classes have been the ones which are a challenge and push me to a new place physically. Thanks to soccer being suspended for the holiday weekend on Saturday, I was able to make it for the first time … Continue reading Pigeon tears
