A Winter White Brunch

Today’s snowfall and freezing temperatures inspired the wintry-warm brunch I whipped up …wasn’t really feeling inclined to brave the outdoors just yet.

City Escapes: Get Me To The Pumpkins, Apples, Wine, & Foliage!

I love fall. Brightly colored leaves, crisp sunny days, comfy sweaters, pumpkins, cider and all the other fun stuff that goes along with it.

The Best of Fall… From Zucchini Bread to Roasted Pumpkin

With the chilly weather of the past few weeks, I’ve taken to turning up the oven and keeping things warm with some great fall comfort foods (my apartment building has yet to turn the heat on so I figured I’d rather cook than freeze to death). Cold weather comfort food obviously has a different meaning [...]

Solace In The City: Meditation Hot Spots

Seems like everywhere I go, people are talking up the topic of meditation. People want to be able to sit still but have no idea how to start. They hear it’s good for you, like vitamins or massage, but are anxious about how it all works. You would think that sitting still and quieting your mind is [...]
