On a recent and beautiful Sunday morning all three of the Lunar b*tches rendezvoused in Greenwich to run our last scheduled trail race of the season, the Wandering Witch. It was our first time running in this event and we couldn’t have asked for more ideal conditions - the sun was shining, foliage was popping … Continue reading 3 (Lunar) b*tches and a witch

Friday night at S & S Farm Brewery
Back in the day when I owned a restaurant, we had a collection of draft beverages of which I was pretty proud. We worked with local brewers and brought in small production brews that our guests really enjoyed. One of my favorite breweries, S & S Farm Brewery in Nassau, consistently produces some great beer … Continue reading Friday night at S & S Farm Brewery

I seriously don't know how people drink every day or even … Continue reading Drinking and driving*
A Saratoga Trifecta – Track, Farmers Hardware & Violet’s
Going to the track has never been my thing. Gambling doesn't appeal to me, I don't like big crowds and I'm really distressed by the number of horses which have died this season. It's all just too much. But, I do enjoy early mornings in Saratoga. There's a simple beauty to the horses trotting around … Continue reading A Saratoga Trifecta – Track, Farmers Hardware & Violet’s
