A Winter Getaway to Madrid

Man oh man can some cities whip out the charm during the holiday season…New York; Washington, DC; Ludwisberg, Germany (I’ve heard); and now Madrid! Most people think that a trip to Spain should only take place in the spring or summer and of course, I’m here to prove them...

End of summer recap: A photo essay

Happy almost Labor Day! Today marks the unofficial last weekend of summer, how sad! Although I’m bummed that summer is on its way out, looking back, it was one of my best regarding travel.  I was able to travel domestically and internationally, and now with a move to Madrid on the horizon,...

I survived.

I just wanted to get that out-of-the-way in case you were worried.  How was your Thanksgiving?? Mine was highly caloric and wonderful and I hope yours was as well.  In my last post I discussed my extensive menu and I’m proud to say that I prepared almost everything on...

Great Expectations

I’m hosting our Thanksgiving this year. Hence the title of this post.  I will admit that I lucked out in the sense that I will only be cooking for myself, my aunt, and my mother (if you have no place to eat this holiday, come join us!), but the...

Fighting the Winter Blues

Y’all.  I use the word “y’all” so you know I’m serious.  Winter Blues has befallen New York City and my little heart can’t take it!  Of course this happens every year and eventually I’ll get over it, but for some reason it’s hitting me really hard this year.  For...
