After having a short week last week, this one seems interminable. While I’m planning a few meet-ups with friends, I’m looking forward to spending a lot of time at home, reading and watching Boyhood to see if it was worth all that Oscar hype. On Tuesday, I got cozy with a favorite dish: okra and…

“Sweet & Sour” is my version of that dinner table game where every guest says what the best and worst parts of the day were. As we head into the weekend, I think it’s important to get the bad stuff off your chest and remember the positives as a silver lining and energizing factor. When the…

It’s been so cold in New York so I am extremely excited to head to the warmer temps of Vegas tomorrow. There are plenty of things I’m excited for, but one of them is the opportunity for a lot of quality time with my brother. We don’t always get 1-on-1 time anymore so I can’t wait…
