When it comes to breakfast, New York City is the city of bagels. New York prides itself on the bagel – the perfect, filling breakfast for on-the-go New Yorkers. I personally stopped eating bagels once I read that calorie wise, one bagel is equal to five slices of bread (yikes!),...
Remember when I lost my mind and made Thanksgiving dinner completely on my own? That was fun. If you do happen to recall that wonderful 8-10 hour ordeal, then you probably remember the fact that there was one item on my overzealous menu that I did not get a chance...
Happy February! I’ve decided to write a new weekly post about my second favorite love (after travel): food. In my opinion, food can be just as transporting as travel and is often times an integral part of learning about a destination. Unlike some avid eaters, I like to eat...
Merry belated Christmas!! First of all let me start out by saying how happy I am to be at a computer. I have basically been computer-less since Sunday, December 23rd and although this will prove how dependent I am on my tech toys, I have been going NUTS. I’ve...

Happy October! Welcome to my favorite month of the year. Everything about October is so quintessentially fall to me. The leaves start to change, the weather gets cooler and stays that way (I can finally take my AC out of the window…YES), pumpkin and apple flavored anything, and stores...
I was fortunate enough to have a bit of work travel this week that brought me to the lovely city of Charlotte, North Carolina. North Carolina will always have a special place in my heart because I attended college at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (go...
I know I probably shouldn’t be talking about the fall as it is clearly still summertime and I should appreciate it because autumn in New York lasts for about 20 minutes before turning straight into winter. That said, I’ve noticed over the past week a small dip in temperatures,...
