  • Teen Boy Gift Guide

    It’s the most wonderful time of the year! When you have to rack your brain to think of what to buy from the teen/tween boy in your life! We love experience gifts, like sports tickets, different classes, trips, and experiences like indoor skydiving (this was a huge hit last year!), but sometimes you just need a physical gift.   I put… [See the Post]

  • Friday Five – 6/3/22

    In my phone, I have a running list of things that I love and want to share, but lately I haven’t been so good with sharing. I thought it would be fun to start doing an old school blog feature – a Friday Five. Five things that I’ve been really enjoying lately and I think are worth a recommendation. Megababe… [See the Post]

  • Winter Fun For Your Dog with Old Mother Hubbard

    This post is sponsored by WellPet®, but the content and opinions expressed here are my own. If you do a quick google search, there are tons of stories about how millennials treat their pets like their children. To be honest, before adopting Zoey, I didn’t really get it. Now that she has been part of our family for almost two… [See the Post]

Party Animals

Yesterday was the first birthday party that Munchkin attended, other than his own. The little boy who lives next door to us is turning 5 next week, but he told his mom that he will not go to school until he is 5, so they had his birthday party a week early. I got him a Home Depot tool set…

We started our Friday evening off with some Chipotle for dinner. It was a total chance Chipotle encounter because we were looking for…

The calm before the storm

I woke up this morning to the sun shining and a beautiful blue sky, but this gorgeous weather won’t last. Since the weather is supposed to get really bad in NYC over the weekend, we are packing up and getting out.  I will be spending the day bringing in all our outdoor furniture and potted plants, moving all my valuables…

Falling for Fall

I think someone in NYC did something to really anger Mother Nature. Mayor Bloomberg, perhaps? Not only did we have the first earthquake in a very long time on Tuesday, we have going to have a lovely hurricane this weekend.  The strongest hurricane that’s hit the New York area in years.  100 mile per hour winds? No thanks. I’m over…

Earthquakes are not on the list…

So, who felt the earthquake yesterday? I was sitting on the couch, trying to get Munchkin to nap when the whole house started shaking.  It was a different kind of shake though.  Living in New York, the ground shakes all the time thanks to, such lovely things as, the subway and construction, but this left like the ground was swaying.  It felt…
