I have been enjoying the beautiful spring weather we have been having lately in NYC. Somehow, great weather always puts things into perspective for me and allows me to appreciate things a little more. Here are a few photos I snapped that I wanted to share.
These flowers just caught my eye the other day – I loved the arrangement. Thought I’d share!
My mom has been quoted saying, “Wouldn’t it be so great to be a writer?” My brother and I, being writers ourselves, have always encouraged her to write, but she has never yet fully completed a work. I think she has a great voice and writing style, and suggested that perhaps she should start a [...]
Yesterday I met one of my favorite authors Susan Orlean at NYU’s School of Journalism, where she was promoting her new book. Susan Orlean is a journalist for the New Yorker, as well as having published a number of popular non-fiction novels such as The Orchid Thief (turned into the movie Adaptation), and Rin Tin Tin [...]
Very rarely will I post twice in one day, but today just happens to be a special day. It is the grand opening of a new Ukrainian restaurant in NYC.

I grew up spending my summers at the Jersey Shore (specifically Wildwood), and was very excited to be visiting again. It’s always nice to [...]
This past weekend, my friends and I attended the Fashion, Beauty, Lifestyle, expo in Washington DC, hosted by DC50. It was a fun event, which showcased products by Stella & Dot, Bebe, Salon Virage (along with many others), and even included a meet and greet with Nigel Barker. Unfortunately, we missed out on the meet [...]
I spent the last week at my family’s house (or as I like to call it “shack”) up in the Poconos. The property has been in the family for years, and I have been spending my summers there since when I was born. Our “shack” has no phone or internet, which is just fine by [...]
