Well, I’ve pulled a muscle in my back and have been confined to my bed. So there is no better time to start writing again right? Truthfully, it is the only way that I’ve stopped in the last couple of months. It has been a complete whirlwind. It definitely has not been an easy few … Continue reading »

Back to bizniz
After a Christmas experience very different than years past, I’m back in New York. Though I never vocalized it pre-25th, I was nervous about Christmas this year. It was the first time not seeing my mom on Christmas ever, not going out to California for part of the holiday, and it was the shortest Christmas … Continue reading »
Merry Xmas and all that jazz
I took this photo of the field that used to be my backyard from a CAR. In which I was DRIVING. Ahhhhh… It’s good to be home. Merry Christmas all. Catch ya on the flip side.
I’m going to tell you why my Dad is awesome.
So as we all know, my dad is pretty awesome. Today though, my dad reminded me of just how awesome he really is. I read my dad’s post about his relationship with his Elijah, a young kid who he mentors who has now become a great little addition to the family. To sum it up- Elijah … Continue reading »
Tarrytown
One of the things I wanted to do on my long Thanksgiving weekend was get out of the city. I hadn’t left the city since I went to Spain 3 months ago, so I was ready for an escape. But with the short time frame, holiday crowds and wanting to be a little cheap- I … Continue reading »
Thanksgiving Wrap-Up
Well hello all- I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I’m ending mine curled up on my couch feeling a little sicky. But that doesn’t mean I had an awesome Thanksgiving. This was the first year that I wasn’t able to make it back to family. Weird. A bit sad. And very different. But I’m … Continue reading »
24
Welp, I’m 24. As a wise friend said- it can’t be that bad of a year when you have an TV show named after it. But Taylor Swift also has stopped writing songs about my age soooo yeahhhh. Truthfully though- I had an amazing birthday. Between my surprise birthday party at work, to an evening … Continue reading »
Mother’s Bike Out
Just has a lovely stay-cation with my mom that included a wonderful Broadway show, an amazingly shwanky dinner, and picking out makeup. The most beautiful portion of our stay-cation was an amazing bike ride around Central Park (woot woot Groupon!) It was so wonderful to see the colors changing and parts of the Park I … Continue reading »

I’m Back.
Hey friends. I missed you. Can I get minorly deep for a second? When we last saw each other, I wasn’t in the best spot. I was overwhelmed, unhappy, and just not feeling like myself. And then I disconnected- I went to Spain, I learned to like myself again, and life got a lot better. … Continue reading »
Peanut Butter FOR THE WIN.
I’ve been wanting to go to Peanut Butter & Co. since I heard it existed. A place that is entirely peanut butter sandwiches= heaven. I first tried the various flavors of peanut butter at the New York Chocolate Show (white chocolate peanut butter, maple peanut butter and more!) This magnificent establishment is owned by the … Continue reading »

OUR FIRST ANNIVERSARY!
A year ago today, my sweet friend Kerry dropped me off at the Indianapolis airport with some hugs and I was off to New York. I arrived completely turned around and completely exhausted. I can’t believe how much has changed since that day. Grant it, I’m still often turned around and almost always exhausted, but … Continue reading »

So my family has been visiting all week (more on that later), and on Sunday night, they had signed us all up for a bike ride… in Manhattan. When the Tennant family said that we were doing a 5-hour bike tour around New York, I was a little nervous. My outdoor adventure loving family was … Continue reading »
On To The Next Adventure…
New York is not about staying stagnant. New York is about chasing dreams. This sounds incredibly cliche and lame. But since moving to New York, it has been my dream to work here: Lincoln Center. The mecca for performance. A celebration of the arts in the middle of the city. Every time I walked onto … Continue reading »

This weekend was a busy one, but thank goodness life cleared off my schedule for a short time on Saturday to meet up with this wonderful lady. I love visitors- I feel lucky that I live in a place that people want to visit, but I can’t tell you how amazingly wonderful it was to … Continue reading »
