Hi friends, welcome back to another edition of my monthly series showcasing all my delicious eats during the month. As you know, one of my favorite parts of living in NYC is the abundance of incredible food, and I’ve been on a mission to try all the best places and share my finds along the…
Hi friends, welcome back! Hard to believe we’re halfway through the year already… The month started off feeling like I was living in some creepy sci-fi movie with all of the wildfire smoke. Luckily that went away in time for the Ed Sheeran concert that we loved. The following weekend we flew to Michigan to…
Hi friends, welcome back! This weekend we had an extra special day celebrating Jon’s birthday. We were traveling the weekend before and weekend after, so we planned a relaxing day with brunch at one of the most popular Italian spots in NYC. Last year we went out for brunch and dinner and felt like we…

Hi friends, welcome back! Jon and I are home from Italy and it was everything we dreamed of and so worth the wait. We already miss our almost daily gelato, the peacefulness of Positano, the charm of Florence, and the amazing sites in Rome. We didn’t want to leave, but it’s always good to be…
Hi friends, welcome back! I’ve got the conclusion of my Lower Manhattan historical tour today ending with City Hall.
