Costa Rica
Costa Rica. We were there for just one week, but (can you tell?) I fell in love. Truthfully, it would be hard not to. There is something about it, something about those lush, wet rainforests, those bright, chirpy birds and the cloud-topped volcanoes, something in all of those things which is impossible to resist, which beckons…

Six Impossible Things
The past couple of weeks have been crazy busy. It seemed like every day there was something new to check off my list and each week I had more and more things to get done. However, now that Chanukah is over I feel like things are finally starting to calm down. I have a trip…

Grateful
Hi! Happy day-after-Thanksgiving! Pie for breakfast, anyone? I’m sipping on some tea right now, reflecting on last night’s festivities, which I spent with my close friends. I cooked up a wonderful feast (we did end up having a turkey, which means I now have leftovers for at least a week) and we gorged ourselves on pies, dinner…

An Apple A Day
Time slips by quickly and suddenly it is night, or tomorrow, or next week, or next year. Time slips by quickly and we are left spinning, thrown from its grasp and wondering if ever it will slow, if ever we can hold it. It doesn’t. So we grasp it ourselves. We run to catch up,…

The sky was a picturesque blue and filled with cottony clouds, and sunflowers lined the way to our favorite orchard. The orchard was virtually empty, and overflowing with fruits…

Happy Monday! We’re in Mystic, Connecticut for a short vacation this week and I can’t wait to explore all the town has to offer. I’m looking forward to relaxing by the beach, taking boat rides out on the ocean, and soaking up some sun. Hope you all have a wonderful week and make the most…

The NYC Highline
Not many words today. There is a hammock outside and it is calling my name, and this glorious August afternoon is too pretty to waste indoors. So I am leaving you with a few pictures instead. The Highline is the perfect place to spend a glorious August afternoon, or any afternoon, really. It straddles the…

Six Impossible Things
Whew! This July has been kind of crazy. I need some sleep! My photography course at FIT demanded that I wake up in the wee hours of the morning to catch a train to NYC and once my half-day class was over, I usually spent the rest of the day traipsing (or maybe trudging? definitely…
