Drybar
After nearly five years of living in New York, I’m finally letting you in on a little secret: Drybar. Throughout the years, whenever I’ve had an event I’ve either gotten […]
Quality Eats
I know a New York City restaurant is good when I want to visit it multiple times. With so many restaurant choices in the city, I only go back to […]
Anastasia
Once upon a December March, I saw Anastasia on Broadway. I was aware of the history of the real Anastasia, of course, but I had never seen the animated movie. So […]
Easter in DC
For Easter this year Greg and I headed down to Washington, DC to visit his sister Katherine, her husband Dave, and their two daughters, E & W. I love taking […]
La Sirena
The first time Greg and I went to La Sirena in Chelsea we liked it so much we knew we had to bring my mom there when she visited. We […]

Quadrille Party Gras
After a wonderful Quadrille season (and an especially fabulous Quadrille Ball), our leadership team wanted to thank our Junior Committee for all of their hard work. So Andrew, Lauren, Taylor […]
