When I first met Gabrielle Bernstein in 2008, she was speaking about happiness at the New York Junior League. At the time, I had a lot of drama in my life and never considered I could be a happy person. I was going through the motions. I thought to myself then that Gabby was the kind of person I’d like… Read More
I gave up my bagel and cream cheese habit several years ago. Thankfully, you won’t find that kind of deli fare on the menu at Kutsher’s Tribeca. Instead, you get a contemporary spin on Jewish American classics artfully served up (in ample portions) in a clean and modern bistro setting. Eager for a light lunch, mid-week, we strolled over to… Read More
I’m sharing the love today! As a blogger it’s imperative that I read other blogs and I certainly have my pick, but these are the ones that keep me coming back. And I think it’s no coincidence that many have an Institute for Integrative Nutrition student or grad behind them. The Wellness Warrior Finding the perfect healthy balance of mind… Read More
Whenever I’m hungry I play a little game with myself. Instead of satisfying the “hunger” immediately, I check in with my body first. I’ll get to exactly how this works in a second … and, I know, it sounds weird.

Plus, you’ll be doing a jig when you see that these only take 2 minutes to make. Shishito peppers have been popping up on lots of restaurant… Read More
I’ve never actually met Alexandra Jamieson in person but I’ve admired her from afar. She is the epitome of an accomplished health coach and natural foods chef, one who walks her talk and has successfully spread her message about holistic health and wellness far and wide. You may know her as the author of Vegan Cooking For Dummies, Living Vegan… Read More
After being turned away from two restaurants on last Saturday’s balmy date night (yes, we were sans reservations yet again – it’s more fun that way, isn’t it?), David and I literally stumbled on Left Bank. A fledgling on New York City’s dining scene,the cozy, dim-lit restaurant was buzzing by 8 p.m. but not as bustling as its West Village… Read More
As an entrepreneur, a blogger and someone who just likes pretty pictures and organizing my thoughts, Pinterest is genius to me. When I see a cute pair of wedges in a fashion magazine or a recipe I want to try, I love to tear the pages out. Yes, I’m that girl on an airplane who goes on a tearing spree… Read More
