We love museums. We’re surrounded by some of the best here in NYC and we try to pop in as much as possible. Especially since Max is old enough to remember and say, “remember that time we went to The Met and saw the naked statues?” Growing up on a farm, we didn’t get a lot of culture, so I myself am fascinated to be able to take a train… Keep Reading
This post was sponsored by Blue Diamond® as part of an Influencer Activation and all opinions expressed in my post are my own. Summer is known for rooftop spritzers, sandy days at the beach and park bbqs. So where does a plant-based diet fit into all of these? A lot of advice says to bring your own food to parties so you have something to eat. While that works for… Keep Reading
Back in the 90s we loved getting weird. We had ouija boards, colored jeans and Doc Martens. We also had a weirdly dark and grungy love affair, and death was strangely “popular” in song lyrics and movies (Nirvana or Nine Inch Nails, anyone?) Regardless, we loved it and still laugh about our trend choices today. But – is it making a comeback? Nirvana tees have never gone out of style… Keep Reading
The lights, the glimmer, the glam of Broadway. That’s why we live here in NYC, right? All these overly dramatic amazing musicals all trying to outdo themselves and we all scramble to try and get tickets while the main actors are still there (and it’s still a year down the road). Just want to see something different? How about a show that goes entirely wrong – and that’s what you… Keep Reading
We may be New York City dwellers, but we are country boys and girls at heart. It’s funny that the older you get, the more you start to embrace your roots. Or maybe it’s just all the concrete, but we find ourselves hanging out in wide open fields, snowy mountains, large lakes and lush forests more and more. And so it says, being outdoors has TONS of benefits, and if you’ve… Keep Reading
Whoever initially thought a monster-sized gorilla climbing the tallest building in NYC was a pretty cool story really didn’t realize what they were starting. In fact, they never probably imagined that massive ape would literally come to life on stage in the very location of the storyline – Broadway in the middle of Times Square. Based on the famous 1932 novel, you’ll follow Carl Denham on his quest for fame…. Keep Reading
I do it every January. It arrives, it’s cold and we’re cooped up and I wish I had booked snowboarding trips for the winter. When you wait till last minute, usually all the good resorts are booked up (if you’re staying overnight). It’s not easy to remember to book a trip and wax that board of yours in the hot summer months, but ski/board season actually runs October through April… Keep Reading
If you’re anything like me, you gave up a few things when you became a parent – late nights out on the town, heels and sleeping in on weekends. They all say – stay true to yourself! Find time for you! And as much as we all want to believe that and TRY – it’s just not that easy. It only takes five minutes to meditate a day they say,… Keep Reading
Ball. Bacon. Beers. Three of my favorite things and if I can get them all in one place, you’ve hooked me for life. Especially when said place is also delicious AND kid-friendly. Enter one of my new favorite hidden gems – BarBacon in Union Square. There are so many reasons to love this place. One – it’s convenient to get to. Two – it’s not your average sports bar. Not… Keep Reading
NYC is magical for the holidays. Among the crowded city streets, there are just so many twinkles and sparkles, holiday markets, and decorated storefronts and windows galore it’s easy to remember how fun holiday shopping can (and should!) be. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll always be a fan of two-day shipping, but for the holidays, there’s something that’s missing when you shop online – the actual shopping. There is something… Keep Reading
