I can’t even believe it’s here. On one hand, it feels like it’s been such a longtime since I was last in school, when it was less than a month ago. On the other hand, I feel like th...
Do you ever feel like there’s an era that you “belong” in? That’s how I’ve always felt about the late sixties and early seventies. In my angst-y late teenage years (whic...
New Yorkers take their food trucks very seriously. In a city of convenience (and awesome food), what’s better than gourmet on the go? One of the favorites of the food truck world is the Kimchi ...
I’ve never been big on the whole nautical thing in fashion, per say. I’m not really a prepster, so you won’t typically see me wearing a striped sweater or anything adorned with anch...
A few throwbacks: All from Dave Matthews Band… Seeing them tonight! (I got the date mixed up before) Dave is my favorite to see live (and pretty much my favorite in general). SOOOO excited. My ...
Looking for a good recipe to spice up your Memorial Day? Start off the day with some PB & J Oats: Made with some homemade strawberry jam: Freshen up a family picnic with a colorful salad… &...
Who knew that nutritional yeast could be made sweet? I went into this thinking, “Okay, this is either going to be really disgusting or absolutely amazing.” Luckily, it was the latter. And...
I often post pictures of flowers, trees, and other local nature on here, but I am also so inspired by animals. There’s a reason that animals have been used as symbols for thousands of years: th...
Previously: Amaranth Quinoa Wheatberries Millet Today’s grain? Farro! Farro is an interesting breed in the grain world. It is often confused with spelt (they are not the same), and its e...
Ahhh, life. It’s been kind of blissful lately. Finishing my internship coincided with finishing school for the semester and I am loving this much needed break from serious life. “Break Li...
Make this your mantra forever. Don’t ever let anyone else poison who you are. Have a great week
THIS. This is such a problem. What you are looking at is my ENTIRE wardrobe. It was time for drastic measures. Over the next few days or so, my life will be getting an overhaul. It’s that speci...
Meet your new party-pleaser. Need a quick appetizer? You got it. Picky eater on your hands? No worries. Vegan? Sure. Healthy? You bet. Delicious? Ohhh yes. This is one of my favorite recipes to date....
Gone are the days when fashion catalogues consist of bare-bone images of phony smiles on white backgrounds, alongside of product info and serial numbers. Now that anyone can see that information on t...
This is a week of CLEAN. Spring cleaning, sure… you’ll be getting a post on that later. But I’m cleaning up in two ways this week: I’m going raw! It’s just for a few day...
Experiences with cab drivers in NYC are hits or misses… and tend to be the latter. Generally you hope for one that, at the very least, gets you from point A to point B fairly quickly and withou...
It feels like it’s kind of impossible to put this post into words, but I’ll give it a shot. My mom is an amazing person. She’s not just my mom. She’s my best friend. Admittedl...
I’m no green thumb. I’ve always associated gardening with weeding, lawn-mowing, and the loooong Saturdays that my dad always spends outside. He is the unofficial landscaper in our family,...
Previously: Amaranth Quinoa Wheatberries Today… Millet! Actually, if you think you haven’t heard of or seen millet before, you probably have: Yes, it’s commonly used in birdseed. Bu...
I’ve decided that since I have fashion industry aspirations it would probably be fitting if I, you know, mentioned it once in a while. Luckily, this week is particularly fitting to start, since...
Time is winding down to the day when we celebrate Moms (and Grandmas!) everywhere, but it’s still not too late to find a perfect gift! As a broke college student whose day job is an unpaid inte...
Goodness. It’s been so long since I put together a recipe that I feel like I forget how to do this! Luckily, what’s coming your way doesn’t need much of an introduction. I first dis...
Good morning! From the Dalai Lama. He knows his stuff. He actually spoke at USC last year but I had to miss it because I wasn’t paying attention when tickets went on sale. I regret it… hi...
Hello! So, I am officially done with this semester!!! YAY. The past couple weeks have been pretty rough, but all in all the past few months have been really good. Some reflections: Oh, you didn’...
April Showers… …bring… Happy, happy May!!!
I’m still here! In T-minus 1 week I will emerge from the end-of-the-semester abyss and get back to posting regularly. In the meantime, this is basically my daily formula: I do this every semest...
I have mixed feelings about Earth Day. While I am glad that we have a day devoted to celebrating this magnificent planet that gives us so much, it bothers me to see headlines like “How to go ec...
Didn’t I just move to NYC? Yes. Yes, I did. Alas, the semester is coming to a close, which means that I will be leaving dorm-living behind. I am not exactly sad to do so; though the location (U...
Graffiti on the bathroom door… Shut Up and Be Young. A little blunt, but something I need to remind myself a lot lately. Wish me luck… I have a crazy next couple of weeks. Thanks, finals.
