Walking with my little pug-terrier Primrose, the behavior that frustrates me the most in the moment, is also the behavior that when I step back and look at the bigger picture, I admire and adore the most. If she sees a dog within a 20-50 meter radius, she goes wild. It doesn’t matter the […]Read Post ›
The Reading Terminal Market was one of the first places we visited when we came to Philly. We heard it was a good place for lunch. We stuck to the outside aisle, finding a cheesesteak, some ice cream, and a box of made before our eyes Amish donuts. I was a little intimidated, […]Read Post ›
This is my life’s motto: If it’s legal, safe, doesn’t hurt anyone, and I’m available, I’m game. I’ve found some of my favorite adventures in life by simply leaning in and saying yes. After moving to Philly 21 months ago, this really has become a way of life for us. So when an offer […]Read Post ›
September often brings mixed reviews with the turning of season, and blockbuster hype (or blockbuster bomb) enthusiasm with going back to school, along with early leaks of Halloween and Christmas decorations. For me, September means TIFF, the Toronto International Film Festival. Last year, unable to volunteer at TIFF, I started my own film festival […]Read Post ›
What’s a must do in Philly over the Easter long weekend when you have guests in town?! With the Rocky Steps closed for the NFL Draft, and we’ve already waited an hour for a cheesesteak at Carmen’s, what do we do Easter Sunday? The Head House Square 86th Annual Easter Promenade. Although it’s been around […]Read Post ›
I wish I could say it was a dark and stormy night when things went wrong. In reality, it was a very mild February night at about 8pm. Derrick and I had just finished dinner, and were walking to the Riverview movie theatre that’s about 15 minutes from our home. It started off as […]Read Post ›
I have never felt hopelessness like I have since November 9, 2016. The American ideal that everyone is important, equal, and welcomed is not a reality. The United States is divided, and on that day, I couldn’t pretend anymore. I saw the divide, the anger, the fear, and the apathy. The unquestionable yet flawed and dangerous […]Read Post ›
New Year’s Eve brings a heightened sense of reflection, tradition, consumption, connection, and celebration, so I thought it fitting that my final post of 2016 focus on just that! I am conducting my 2nd interview post (if you count the one with my cat) with Derrick Louis Fournier, Crêpier Extraordinaire (and occasional blog poster […]Read Post ›
The Holiday Season is one that thrives off a sentimental overload of glittery traditions. They help us get through the shorter darker days, as they bring us together with comfort and joy, and way too many cookies. Add in the hot chocolate. The sweaters. The tacky yet stunning ornaments. And the music. That’s when we know the holidays […]Read Post ›
“Want to join a kickball league?” “Sure… but what’s kickball?” It turns out making new friends in your 30’s isn’t the straight forward process that it once was. Yes, there are tons of nice people, but with priorities pulling at people from all angles (work, family, money, health, hair loss), it makes sense that it’s […]Read Post ›
