Cuisine. Culture. Commentary.
I was supposed to go out of town this weekend but my mini trip was cancelled. Does this change of plans upset me? Not in the slightest. After a trip to DC last weekend and visitors the weekend before, I am looking forward to a more relaxing three nights in my apartment. I am NOT…

Happy 4th of July, bloggies! Fingers crossed that the weather holds up so I can spend the day by the pool. If not, I’m still going to enjoy the time off work! Bite is the best Canadian import since…it’s the best Canadian import. The beauty company just set up a small shop in Manhattan where…

It is very weird to come back from a beach vacation spent entirely in bikinis to freezing cold New York. At least my trip away gave me the reminder I needed that it won’t always be cold and dreary. Spring will soon arrive and I can spend all my time outdoors. New favorite nail color:…

I’ve really been enjoying this week of warm weather. It had been too cold to do anything but sit inside my apartment underneath my favorite blanket with a plate of pad see ew from my favorite Thai takeout spot. Now that it’s become bearable outside, I’ve found a renewed fervor to get out and enjoy…
