It’s back to a short week for me! Today is actually my last day at work before I head to Vegas for Steph’s rager of a bachelorette. Pray for our livers. I am newly obsessed with Letters of Note, a website that features the correspondence of famous people. Sometimes sentimental, sometimes humorous, these letters provide…

Our latest family dinner was Amy’s pick and I was a little worried for my wallet when she picked Mercer Kitchen. Nevertheless, I was excited to have an excuse to visit such a swanky place and even more excited that our usual crew expanded for the evening to accommodate our cousins who were passing through…

In my five years of living in the Upper East I never went to Barking Dog so when I moved to Murray Hill and there was another location just a few blocks away I figured it was time to finally give it a go. This decision was helped along by the fact that there are…

The fact that this book was written by a gay, Jewish guy with tons of crazy life experiences should have meant it would be a THK favorite. Unfortunately, while each essay should have written itself (cabana boy at a hot South Beach hotel, gay republicans, and Hooters Air), they all seemed to fall flat. Rakoff…

I didn’t really want a birthday celebration this year. This was not a case of “boo hoo don’t look at me I’m getting old.” It’s more like “turning 27 seems like no big deal when your closest friends are getting married and you just bought an apartment.” Basically, my birthday seemed pretty inconsequential with all…

Welcome to the Savannah edition of 3 on Thursday. I was home for my annual week-long Summer visit that I planned around Bridge’s wedding. It was so nice to spend time with the fam and relax in the Lowcountry. I can’t think of a better way to ring in 27. My hopes to sit around…
