For the freakin’ LIFE of me I couldn’t make it out of bed this morning. By 10 am I just resigned to a morning in bed (why fight it). I made coffee and snuggled back in my covers with a crossword, mug of frothy joe, and some trashy tv. How’s that for a perfect morning? Hump day much. Around noon I dragged myself to the living room for some apples and computer time. Since it was gorgeous outside and I wasn’t hungry for lunch I made my way outside, for a walk around the neighb. … Read more >

Reminder: BYOM (bring your own mug, that is) to Starbucks on April 15th for a free java I love that Starbucks is doing their part to make a difference…I mean, I already adore the ‘bucks for their delicious liquid crack, but The Green Project has put them on a whole other level in my book. Hippie approved 🙂 But back to Tuesday… Weather-wise, it was only moderately spring-y, but I’ll take overcast and warmish over 40 degrees any day. Brunch was colorful perfection. Fruity much?

Our days in NYC are numbered, but at the same time, there is still some flexibility in regards to how and when everything goes down (especially at… Read more >

As promised, I am back with an epic restaurant review. Since Kyle and I have a shot-gun countdown until we leave the NYCizzle, we decided it was muy imperativo that we start hitting up all the great dining spots that are on our to-taste list. (For the record, that list is about 5 years worth of meals long, so I will be pleased if we can even make a small dent in it…) Anyways. Up first on the list was Blue Hill. I first heard of Blue Hill Farms back on the 5th season of… Read more >
