A couple of weeks before my trip I splurged on a pair of pricey slippers. When I say "pricey," I'm talking like more expensive than most of the shoes in my closet, not including Frye's and running shoes. Yes, they were a bit of an indulgence for sure. When they first came in the mail … Continue reading Packing – 2 hits and a miss

Sweat, sauna, suds
I know there's some kind of Jersey saying about gym, tan and something else, but I'm a New York girl, not a New Jersey one, so my trio of activities is a bit different. First, I took a run.
