Brooklyn Flea in Williamsburg!!!

[March 31]

Uh, yay!  Brooklyn Flea, arguably the coolest flea market in the world is opening a new location on Sundays right outside my building.  Literally!  I could spend hours perusing the market, nibbling on the amazing culinary treats sold there, finding artwork, vintage clothing, maps, you name it.  It’s basically cool central (how un-cool do I [...]

Saffron Quinoa in Roasted Acorn Squash

[March 30]

Last week I was in a cooking mood, but not a shopping mood.  I was way too lazy to leave the house for groceries, but was craving a healthy, home cooked meal.  I whipped up this quinoa dish pretty easily and quickly and it was totally a perfect weeknight dinner.  I served it with hummus, [...]

Woodstock, NY in a Weekend

[March 29]

Let me start by saying that even in the 30 degree weather, Woodstock was absolutely beautiful. The air was crisp and fresh and totally cleansing. That said, everything to do was closed!  Which is why we cut our trip off a bit early.  Avi could only spend so much time in the car and hotel [...]

Our Crazy Weekend

[March 28]

So…we wound up staying two nights in Woodstock, one night in Connecticut, taking a trip to Rye to visit Richie’s brother and his clan, and having guests for dinner last night!  It was non-stop craziness. And it left me 0.0 seconds to blog.  So…I’ll tell you all about my trip and all the yummy food, [...]

Pregnancy Week 5, 4, oh and 10

[March 25]

Ok, seeing as it’s friday and I’ve pregnancy posted all week, I’m going to shove all the rest of the weeks I was gonna cover into one post so we can get back to vegan stuff Monday. Week 4: Pee stick= positive After the last miscarriage, Risa ran a bunch of blood tests and found [...]

Pregnancy Week 6

[March 24]

I literally wake up tired. Oh and I burp upon waking up!  What is that?!? My gas is out of control.  I’m burping like a madwoman and what I don’t burp up is getting caught between my ribs and it don’t feel good! By 10:30a I’m sitting in dance class with Avi and yawning my [...]

Pregnancy Week 7 (Round 3)

[March 23]

This is about the time in the two last pregnancies that I miscarried. I learned that the point at which your body actually expels the pregnancy is not the point at which it first becomes not viable.  It was most likely 2-4 weeks before that. In retrospect, those pregnancies were much much more mild than [...]

Pregnancy Week 8

[March 22]

Anxiety overload!  Friday I went to see Risa for my first ultrasound to check for the baby’s heartbeat.  I may have given myself an ulser with all the craziness I put myself through (of course I’m kidding, but my stress levels were scary). Stomach pain trumped my nausea this week which meant that I only [...]

9 Weeks Pregnant and Counting..

[March 21]

So, I’ve been nervous to tell too many people and struggling with how I feel about spilling the beans about this pregnancy, but here I am, pregnant yet again this year and hoping this one sticks! I’ve decided to share the news a bit earlier than planned (I was considering waiting until I was done [...]

One Year of Posting Under My Belt!

[March 18]

I can’t believe it’s been a year since I’ve started this blog. I feel like so soooooo much has happened since then. Most importantly, this blog has given me a space to think, share my passions, and record some of my favorite things in life. I’m so glad to have started this and kept it [...]
