This month’s PopSugar Must-Have Box just may have been the best yet. My two favorite items had to be the Jack & Lucy Bicoastal Wide Brim Hat, and the Smith & Cult Lip Lacquer in The Warning, a bold red with gold micro-shimmer. I wore these for a chill weekend in Princeton, NJ for lunching and apple picking at Terhune Orchards, where… Read More
I didn’t know it at the time, but this flatbread (err … pizza, pictured above) is the last gluten and dairy-laden meal I would eat. My husband and I were celebrating our 1 year anniversary in Napa this past March. I had been feeling a little low on energy and not my absolute best, which brought to the forefront the… Read More
Given that we were #blessed with perfect weather this weekend (sunny and a little cool), David and I decided to get out of the city to enjoy some time in the suburbs. We drove to charming Princeton, New Jersey where we checked into a hotel, had lunch at Nassau Seafood Company After lunch Β I grabbed the spiciest chai latte I’ve… Read More
I’m coconut-obsessed. Probably no secret. Naturally, I love coconut oil! So when Skinny & Co. reached out to me to try their 100% raw coconut oil (the only 100% raw coconut oil in the world, by the way), I couldn’t resist.

This weekend was more of the same as last weekend with home improvement projects, stocking the fridge and tying up some loose ends for my Green Your Diet 7-Day Challenge. I’m really loving some of the down time I’ve had the past two weekends to re-charge and get grounded. As an introvert, I find I need this regularly and it’s… Read More

And there it was. A perfectly… Read More
I’ve gotten some great feedback on my Notes from the Weekend posts and to be honest, these have been some of my favorite to write, so I’ll keep doing them, even when my weekends are mundane, like this past one. Being that this weekend was the first one we were home in what seems like ages, I frantically tried to… Read More
The official end of Summer and onset of Fall always has me craving the feeling of being grounded. We traveled a lot this summer and I let plenty of projects and to-do list items pile up in exchange for some well-deserved and much-needed R&R. I’m fine with it, but with the start of the new school year, it’s time to… Read More
You either love Vegas or you hate it. Even though we don’t gamble or stay out past Midnight, David and I are in the love camp. We love the weather, the restaurants, the shopping and the shows. It had been a few years since we last visited, so we decided it was time to go back. With Hermine in the… Read More
