It’s been a struggle to get there but I am up to running on the treadmill twice a week. Of course, some days I run for twenty minutes and some days for only 10 minutes but I am definitely willing myself to get it done if only for a short time. One of the reasons [...]
This past week, I headed to Duane Reade The LOOK located at 40 Wall Street for a make-over along with my fellow Duane Reade VIP Bloggers (yes, I am one.) Talk about fun. For New Yorkers, you are more than familiar with Duane Reade (non-New Yorkers, Duane Reade is drugstore like Walgreens) but the 40 Wall Street [...]
Easter Sunday was spent at Brasserie 8 1/2, known for it’s sweeping staircase and if you are Sex and City fans, you will recognize it.
“Just one more.” That is probably the most hated phrase anyone wants to hear when you’re working out with a trainer. It’s hard to dislike Christine when she is only working to help me achieve my goal of getting healthier and to be in better shape. Maybe it’s because it had been awhile since [...]

My daughter along with her classmates and SelfishMom’s son and daughter were on The Today Show with Kathie Lee Gifford and guest co-host Billy Ray Cyrus (Hoda [...]
If have never seen the Blue Man Group, it’s hard to describe their show other than it’s a group of painted blue man doing funny, cool things on stage to fun, wild music and they don’t talk throughout the show. It by far is one of the most imaginative, funny shows you will ever see [...]
Yesterday, I was out running errands like any other Saturday and for the first time I noticed how many white, hipster guys wear hoodies and all I could think of was Trayvon Martin. I even thought of him this week, when I got the flyer from my daughter’s school promoting the schools new clothing items [...]
Everyone comes to New York City based on what they have seen on Friends or Sex in the City or Will and Grace or some other New York City based show. People come here expecting to live in some glamorous apartment like in Friends which I will never get over. All of their apartments at [...]
