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…

Six Impossible Things
Hi everyone! I’m back from a wonderful Shavuos/Memorial Day break. We enjoyed a relaxing holiday with beautiful weather and I managed to sneak in some naps, re-read a bunch of old food magazines that we dug up and hang out with friends and family. We ate great food, like salted caramel blintzes, cereal milk ice cream, and multiple…

Zurich Aesthetic
I’m finally in Switzerland! Zurich, to be exact, and I couldn’t be happier. It’s been four years since I was last here, and not much has changed. The grocery still makes delicious fresh bread, the trams still arrive exactly on the dot, and the bikes are still ever-present. It’s comforting to know that I can…

Six Impossible Things
This past week has been pretty epic. The weather’s gorgeous, our Shavuos in the mountains with family (and friends) was beautiful, and the rhubarb that I started growing a mere two week ago is already sprouting. As always, I’m grateful for all the little things as well as the big, and Six Impossible Things is…

You know those weeks when you have a to-do list that’s a mile long and it doesn’t seem to be getting any shorter? Well, this is one of those weeks for me. For every task I complete, another one seems to take its place immediately. It’s tempting to crawl into bed and forget about it…

Sweet Memories
Now that winter has really set in (last I checked, the weather was 6 degrees) and the January work onslaught has begun, I’m starting to feel a longing for summer. It’s not just the sun that I crave. I want the careless freedom that comes with summer, too. I keep thinking back to those long,…

Setting the Scene
Throughout September and October, I’ve been snapping away, trying to capture the little details, whether it’s a quiet moment in the backyard, or a pretty scene at the side of the road. This way, as November begins and fall fades away, I’ll be able to remember the colorful, leaf filled landscape when winter’s bleak and gray…
