I love coming back to work for a short week! I hope your long Memorial Day Weekend was as fun-filled as mine! On Saturday, Steph and I strolled the SoHo neighborhood picking out her bridemaid gifts, sipping wine, and doing a little shopping. C. Wonder was having a blowout sale and I couldn’t resist. This…

Yay for short weeks! I have lots to get done so this four-day weekend is just what I need.

Work-wise, it’s been an interesting week. Work finally slowed down, which has been nice and – dare I say it?! – a little boring. The high ups in the company all went to CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Vegas and when the cat’s away, the mice will play. It’s been nice having a little time…

It’s a new year and I’m starting a new series on this blog called “Inspiration Station”. Basically, once a month (at minimum), I’ll take a movie and show you how it influences me in two ways. First I’ll cook a recipe that relates in some way to the film (aka: “The Dish”) and then I’ll…

I’m actually rather impressed with myself for keeping up with the blogging this week since the last two days have been long and draining. I’ve been in a two-day meeting that lasted from 8:30-5:30 each day, which means I am very happy Friday is just around the corner. Although I’ve been locked in a conference…
