Good Morning!  This is the first Saturday I can remember I am not in yoga. Not happy about it but with spring comes biking. Greg is an avid rider so we now have to switch on Saturday who gets to work out. Just sucks because I miss morning yoga with super yoga man, Joey, who I now love.  Okay enough… Read More

Graduation from high school 1993 – my aunt told me she had a special present for me. She handed me a wrapped box of brownies. I looked at her like jeez, thanks. Am I 5? She looked back at me and said they are not what you think. Be careful, share the first one with a friend. Good luck at… Read More

I had a moment today. I know we have all had these.  Noa began his Soul Cycle class with  “Angie” by the Stones (stop reading this blog right now if you don’t know this song. You should be embarrassed). It was the perfect  way to start the 5pm class. 5pm is a TOUGH time on a Friday but I need… Read More

After three weeks on the clean cleanse, changing my skin care, my doctors and my household cleaners, I looked into a way I could bring farm to table to my actual “dinner table.” I read about a lot of different options but what I found was right under my nose. I am sure many of you know about Farm &… Read More

Back from an amazing trip with the girls in Miami.  I won’t blog about it because what happens in Miami stays in Miami BUT there are two very important things worth mentioning: Barry’s Bootcamp It needs to open in Livingston stat! I know we have 10,000 places to workout in town HOWEVER I am 100% sure this would be a gold… Read More

It’s starting. Mitzvah date hell. I hear the chatter. I see the faces. What date did you get? Everybody is freaking out. The worst case scenario is that your son/daughter gets the same date as a close friend. Zach got his date last month. Our temple gave us a choice – April or September. I chose September because we are… Read More

Today is my final FULL day of the cleanse. I decided to jump on the scale this morning just for shits and giggles and  in 17 days I lost 4.5 lbs. Although that seems like a tiny number, it is a healthy number and I am very satisfied!  I do still need to lose a few more but this is… Read More

You know how you have something in mind that you want to wear but you can’t seem to find it anywhere? That would be me. 20 stores later and still nothing to wear Friday night. I don’t feel like schlepping to the city tomorrow but I can’t find anything. I kind of love this  Ramy dress but seems way short… Read More

So I am definitely in a weird place. Heading into week 3 and I am a mixed bag of emotions.  Part of me is craving pizza and wine. LOTS OF WINE. The other part of me is not sure how in the world I can ever eat a piece of pizza again. After eating clean for almost 3 weeks, no… Read More

If you can believe it, I am still going strong. Today is Day 11. I decided to not workout this week except for Friday’s Soul Cycle class. I was hoping to get into the Noa Battle of the 90’s class Saturday but there is a waitlist..BOO.  I should have gotten on that earlier. story of my life. I do everything… Read More

Three weeks ago I got a call from a friend in my yoga class. She just got involved with this new beauty company called Beautycounter and she was dying to tell me about it. Um. I wasn’t so interested. I have received countless, COUNTLESS phone calls, texts, emails from so many people about a few other beauty lines that I… Read More

Day 6. Saturday I decided to go to Super Yoga Man’s workout (a.k.a Joey) on Saturday morning. Well that was pretty spectacular. For so long I have been trying to cardio my way through hot yoga. This class was a whole other level of yoga. Not that flow is not but Joey’s class is so tuned into how to do… Read More

Day 5. Friday This is the best I have felt since I started the cleanse. I woke up, turned on some tunes and started dancing in my kids room. My kids already think I am nuts so this was nothing surprising to them except that Zach asked “Why I was in such a good mood?” Hmm am I normally not?… Read More

I have tried it all. Every single diet. I swear. not lying. It took me a long time to realize that “dieting” wasn’t the answer. Why? Because every time I dieted, I lost the weight (awesome) but it always crept back up in months time. When I did P90x, I was in the best shape I had ever been in… Read More

Awhile back I took a poll on Facebook asking about camp stores they shop at in their ‘hood. I got a ton of answers but everyone seemed to recommend the same 5-10 stores. Amazing! There are over 6,300 sleep away camps and only a handful of stores. There was one store/website in particular that seems to be at the top… Read More
