Origins Is Back and Way Better Than Ever!

When I think of Origins, I can’t help but get a little nostalgic about those days when hanging at the mall was cool.  That’s about the last time I can remember wandering into an Origins.  That said, I did wander into one on lower 5th Ave the other day and was blown away! They’re not [...]

Guest Post: Madeleine Starkey

I’ve mentioned my friend Maddy before (here, here, and here, and most likely somewhere else;).  She is sassy and smart and I lover her to pieces.  And though she is years younger than me, she teaches me new things all the time.  Mad is the lady responsible for getting me on the vegetarian track! I [...]

Babies babies everywhere

So, as you all know, we’re trying again to make a baby and have serious babies on the mind.  The thing is we also have babies popping up in our lives left and right (which means that thing inside me which is looking for a baby to squeeze is actually getting babies to squeeze every [...]

A Weekend in DC, Vegan Style

Though there was a bit of drama, rain, and displacement, I had a great weekend in DC.  I spent an day with my friend Benoit that started with a vegan breakfast at Java Green Cafe that was delicious.  We split some faux chicken sandwich with avocado and some sweet sauce that was so good.  After [...]

David Babaii for WILDAID

Before I left for Boston I realized I needed some products for my hair for the wedding.  Generally I literally get out of the shower, towel dry my hair, and throw it up.  This “process” leaves me with some fabulous hair days (depending on how I sleep on it) and some horribly flat ones.  I [...]

Sunscreen

So I know this post is coming a little later in the season than I would have liked, but it took a bit of research and asking around to figure out how I felt about the whole thing. For some time now I’ve been very careful about making sure that all of my make up [...]

I Can’t Live Without My: Tarte Lip Stains

The past week here in New York has been brutally hot.  I’m talking sweat through my supermini sundress hot.  Gross! In that kind of heat I can’t be bothered to look cute either during the day or in the evening, no matter what’s on the agenda!  Nonetheless, I had places to go and people to [...]

Beach Necessities

Memorial Day Weekend is notoriously the first weekend of summer (regardless of that fact that Summer 2010 doesn’t start until June 21st).  And regardless of the fact that it is often not the most sunny and beautiful, we all prepare for hot days at the beach (or pool, or park, or stoop…) hoping for at [...]

New Products on Passover

Passover, like most of the Jewish holidays, means family time more than anything for me.  While I spend a ton of time with my family, there’s something special in the air on the holidays that makes me want to be with family all day long. So, first thing yesterday morning, Avital and I set out [...]
