Jamaica Once Again

[January 25]

I apologize again for my hiatus (this mommy thing gets in the way of everything, huh;)).  We were actually traveling and getting spotty internet while we were gone. This trip has developed into a yearly thing for us and our favorite friends and doppelgängers (Michelle, Dan, Ike, and Calvin).  Once upon a time these friends [...]

Parents Mag Shoot= Totally Hysterical

[October 30]

So…in passing I mentioned some pregnancy modeling I did over the past number of months. It felt a little silly, but I made a few bucks doing it and it kept me busy while waiting for baby. Let me take a moment to reiterate that incertainly do not fancy myself a model! This was a [...]

Nature and Art: A Fabulous Combination

[June 9]

I found this video through an awesome blog: Black Eiffel that I read every so often for design inspiration.  I fell in love with this clip and wanted to share.  It reminds me how special this world is and how worth it it is to protect it!  It also reminds me how much more of [...]

Maternity Jeans In Full Effect

[May 25]

  A couple weeks ago, my mom was over our apartment helping me get ready for the amazing birthday dinner my parents took us to for Richie’s 30th.  I was standing frustrated in front of my closet and she was dumbfounded that I had so little to wear. Long story short: she convinced me to [...]

Cape May Surprise Getaway for Richie’s 30th Birthday

[May 23]

This past weekend, our good friends (Erika and Justin) helped me plan a surprise getaway for Richie to celebrate his 30th birthday. He was totally surprised and we all had an absolutely fabulous beach weekend in Cape May, NJ.  We stayed at Congress Hall which was a supercute hotel on the beach.  We lucked out [...]

FEED 2 Kenya Bag

[April 21]

Sorry again for the quiet day yesterday.  Just got home and still recovering from all the moving around, cooking, family time, and general craziness. I did though get a superspecial present from my amazing Aunt Bonnie this week though.  She ordered my birthday present in October for my birthday in November, but unfortunately due to [...]

The Napping House

[April 11]

Ok, this isn’t about the book (though we love it and read it often), this is about our house.  Or whatever house we’re in at the time be it my parent’s, Richie’s parent’s, my aunt’s, the list goes on… Napping these days is a big part of getting through the day for both Avi and [...]

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 [...]

Babycakes in My Brooklyn Bed AND at Disney!

[March 14]

I’ve mentioned Babycakes Bakery in passing here and here.  Babycakes is a refined sugar-free, gluten-free, wheat-free, soy-free, casein-free, egg-free, vegan, kosher bakery.  And it’s damn good! Every time we’re out to dinner in downtown Manhattan I make Richie do a drive by on the way home for some post dinner goodies (thank goodness they’re open [...]

Fun Baking Tools I know I usually post about a recipe, but I thought this time I’d share with you  the fun baking tools I have.  These are by no means absolute, must have, I can’t make a cake without them, but they sure are fun to have in the kitchen and make baking a [...]
