Only in New York
Only in New York can you leave your office to get to the bank, and be greeted by a guy handing out packets of sour cream and onion flavored crickets. -

As the train rushes overhead, the broken glass gleams like spun silver in the headlights as the car speeds by. -
Yolato!
So, in my pursuite of creating a great blog, that will be followed by many, and free food of course, I got a tour of the Yolato store by Grand Central (sorry Alyssa, it was impromptu, I only found out last night). It was great! Any time any one is in New York, you've got to go and get gelato made from yogurt, or fat free sorbet or soft serve. So ( Read more... ) -
One LONG Weekend
For weeks now I've been scrubbing at a persistent spot on my measuring cup. This morning I finally realized that it's actually a little imperfection in the glass. ::smacks forehead:: That pretty much sums up how I'm feeling right now ( Read more... ) -
Upheavel (?) at work
So, today was quite a day. My boss is a hurricane in a bottle, and I often feel that I work in an insane asylum rather than an office. Today my office mate was "asked to leave". I don't know what this means for me, if I'll have more work or what, but I can only saw I'm glad that the boss is leaving this weekend for a month long buying trip and show ( Read more... ) -
Breakfast: Sunnyside Up :)
This morning I had to work, but I got to sleep in. So I decided to try another take on the morning egg sandwich. Yesterday I tried frying the egg, and then putting it on my gluten free bread with cheese on top. This was good, but all the cheese slid off. So today I toasted one side of the bread, flipped it over, put the cheese on it, and then ( Read more... ) -
Family Matter
So, I've been speaking to my mother on a more-regular-than-usual basis and on Tuesday she told me the my great aunt (My grandmother's sister and at 93 my oldest living relative) has taken a turn for the worst. Now our family matriarch has been doing very well. She suffers many of the things that anyone of age would, but in the last few weeks she ( Read more... ) -
Adventures in the Kitchen
So, it all started last Thursday evening when I found a Shape magazine at the gym. As I’m reading it in bed I get to the back section, with the healthy recipes, and my fiancée catches sight of a marble cheesecake recipe and says, “can you make that?” “of course, I can make anything” I answer. We decide that because I’m going to be busy I’ll ( Read more... ) -
Travel in Winter
So, my flight to Detroit and ensuing airport retrieval by my father went far to smoothly. I landed and walked right out the door and he was waiting for me. I whisked off to the ice rink, where my mother was already set up and selling my jewelry. The sale went well, and we packed up the table just in time. Calling home as we drove from the rink, my ( Read more... ) -
Jewelry in the City
So for the last few weeks I've been running around, and sitting at my bench, like crazy in preparation for what I hope to be my biggest event so far. About a month ago the vendor liaison for my old Figure Skating Club asked me to come and sell at their annual Synchronized Skating competition. I jumped on the opportunity, since generally speaking ( Read more... )
