There are books that I read which are impossible to put down, a recent example being The Girl on the Train.

I was neither disappointed, nor regretful of my decision to push on until … Continue reading Unforgettable lessons

Getting around – Paris
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. That being said, our Paris accommodations weren't as central as they might have been and … Continue reading Getting around – Paris
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.

The wonderful take on surf and turf we indulged in - beef short ribs and crab legs. That chimichurri is so beyond what any pesto could … Continue reading 5 Things to love at Peck’s Arcade
Yoga to the People
Jumping on a train for a Friday night show may conjure up a bit of je ne sais quoi, but trust me when I tell you, for me, it upends the entire weekend. I enjoy easing into the weekend. Fridays often mean some sort of exercise or maybe my monthly massage, not a dash to … Continue reading Yoga to the People
