Two weeks until Christmas!! Can you believe it? In the meantime there are tons of delicious events going on this week, don't miss out!

Can you believe it's December already? Soon enough it will be the New Year! I'm sure everyone is super busy but there is soooo much going on in the city for the foodies (and drinkers) of the area. :) I hope you can make it out to some of these events...

I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving! Can you believe by the end of this week it will already be December? There's so much to do in so little time at the end of the year. I'm so excited for all of the holiday movies, lights and just the general...

It was a long week, luckily most of the trains are back up and running and life continues on after Hurricane Sandy. I have to say it's a cold November already! Today I wore a scarf but I wish I wore two scarves, a hat, a hood to go over my hat, an ex...

I have a feeling all events for today and tomorrow in the city are not happening, thanks to Sandy. Or if they are still going on no busses, trains, subways and ferries might make them hard to attend. So let’s start with Wednesday (since I don&#...

I’m getting this out there a little late, but better late than never right?? There is so much going on this week, and especially this weekend. I normally don’t list all of the parties going on over the weekend but it’s Halloween so...

Here we are, another Monday in October! I hope everyone had an amazing weekend full of delicious food and wonderful people to share it with. I myself went to the Brooklyn Bacon Takedown, it was crazy & I was filled to the brim with some amazing b...

It’s f-f-f-freezing out! Ok well not fully freezing but it is cold! I know last week I was all excited about the foods of fall, this week I’m sad about the cool temperatures haha! There’s still a ton going on, despite the fact that...

Can you believe its October already?! I’m sad that Summer is over but there are so many things I looooove about Fall, like pumpkin (pie, muffins, gnocchi, soup, cookies…), apples (apple pie, hot apple cider, candy apples), acorn squash, T...

Ok so we’re starting on the 19th :/, yesterday was a busy day. My fiance had a procedure that took up most of the days hours, luckily all is well and we’re home and he’s good. I had some time to study for my upcoming NYC food handle...

I realized today that I failed to provide my readers with the foodie events going on this week in NYC! Shame on me! It’s been one heck of a week between the seamstress ruining my wedding dress (I know!!) and making several trips between Atlanti...

Lots going on this week! Fingers crossed that tomorrow we find the location for our wedding & can lock it down! I’m seriously holding my breath until then. Not only that but Cinco de Mayo is this Saturday which to me means a celebration of...

Oh happy day! I know it’s Monday, you’re probably all glaring my way wondering why I’m so chipper. Well BIG changes are going on in my life. For one, I resigned from my current job on Friday. So walking in this morning, all that I c...

Seriously got the Monday blues! I think it would be great if we got 3 day weekends and 4 day work weeks, that would make the having a life outside of work thing much easier! But all is not perfect in this world and here I am again sitting at my desk,...

Good morning all. Happy Monday! I’m really not feeling very enthusiastic. There’s something very wrong with getting up, taking the pup out for his walk and the moon still lighting up the dark sky. It felt like I had gotten up in the middl...

Morning loves! I hope everyone had an awesome weekend! Mine was spent mostly with the fam, down in NJ, just relaxing. This week/weekend however there are tons of events from Fat Tuesday, to the shakesBEER crawl, to the BK wing competition & then...

The Giants WIN this Super Bowl! Woohoo! I think that alone will make any event this week extra special! I’m a little under the weather today but you can’t not be excited about that win. Plus Mardi Gras & Valentine’s Day is right...
