I know what the fox says

Zach came home from school a few weeks ago singing this song “What does the fox say?” I had no idea what he was singing because 1) I never heard it 2) I thought it was a joke and 3) I thought him and his friends made it up. He said to me “mom, you have to watch the video.”… Read More

A little advice from the Aunt!

So yesterday I became an aunt. It was an exciting day. My sister-in-law and brother-in-law brought the cutest little peanut into the world, River Kelman Selling. When I got to the hospital it all came flooding back to me. Labor, Delivery and everything that goes along with it. There is a reason most of us don’t remember any of it…. Read More

Apple Picking, Pumpkin Picking, so much to pick!

Tis’ the season of Apple & Pumpkin Picking! There are so many farms around here it is so hard to choose where to go. This year we did a little of each.

Some Thursday Random Thoughts

Thursday is my favorite day of the week. For most people it is Friday but mine, for sure, is Thursday. It is the best night to go out and the best day before the weekend.

I mean who doesn’t wouldn’t want to be swept off their feet by a hot, rich, redic in bed, kind of guy…It is no wonder Fifty Shades became an International Best Seller and is soon to be a movie.  When I was flying home from Orlando today and… Read More

Is turning 40 the new “mid-life” crisis?

Last week I had back to school night. You  know, the night you have a chance to meet the teachers who will be instructing your kids for the next eight months. My favorite part of the whole night is looking around the room to see the parents in my kids class. I watch who is taking notes, who is looking… Read More

We all need a night out. I have been living in my car since school started. Driving soccer, Hebrew, basketball, tennis, birthday parties, whatever, ever and more.

The Starbucks Latte from Psychoville

Sunday mornings consist of 2 things, a run and a latte. I am a creature of habit and I can’t seem to break the cycle. Mondays are Crossfit at 5:30am, tennis at 9 and work for the rest of the day. Same thing every week. I could list out my week and it would seem like groundhog day every single… Read More

Do you want to “Escape” to Montclair?

I am a big fan of farm-to-table dining. There is something special about a chef who works with nearby farms to design their menu around the freshest seasonal ingredients. When I heard about Escape in Montclair, I knew I had to try it. It only opened 5 months ago and the direction of their farm-to-table is “southern fine cuisine”. These… Read More

My Boy Wonder

Last spring I read a beautiful and touching book called Wonder. It is the story of a typical 10-year-old boy, August Pullman, who loves XBOX and Star Wars. The only thing that makes him a little different is that he was born with a facial deformity. He is so badly deformed he spends most of his preschool years hiding under… Read More

Fall 2013 Playlist, New Tunes?

I love the fall. I like the summer more but there is something about a cool, crisp day and new sweaters. I also love the change of color on the trees and going for a long drive. Well maybe not since I have been driving for 6 days straight but normally I like to go for a long drive and… Read More

5 Countries, 6 Days, 300 pounds later!

If I had to pick my all time favorite scene in any movie of all time, It would be in the food scene in 9 1/2 weeks with Mickey Rourke and Kim Bassinger.  Just kidding, that was hot though! It would be the scene in Good Will Hunting when Robin Williams & Matt Damon are having a heart to heart:… Read More

12 years later…. The European Driving Experience

Today is my 12 year wedding anniversary. We got married 5 short days after Sept 11th. It was a miracle we pulled it off. My brother missed the rehearsal dinner, 2 of my bridesmaids never showed and Greg’s aunt, uncle and cousins made it there through the skin of their teeth. I still, to this day, have no idea how… Read More
