Saturday Short Run

March 10, 2012

Last night was epic. It started with tears – Parting gifts from my team. I said farewell to my team, sent a sappy email and hit the highroad. And by highroad I mean Iron Horse Bar. There was lots of laughter. Joking. Beer. You know, the usual shenanigans. After the party dispersed, Liz and I [...]

Face lifts

It’s almost spring around these parts. I can feel it. I felt is on Saturday morning when I was running down by the city dock and I felt it even more when I got Lily Pulitzer’s email announcing their new spring line. But really, I couldn’t figure out what for the life of me my [...]

Foodie Friday – Wine Edition

January 7, 2012

Foodie Friday is back…(ish) So it’s not really a recipe as Foodie Friday should be. But it is a great glass of wine, a great quick meal thanks to Trader Joe’s and an amazing end to a slightly stressful week. Sometimes you just need to chill. I’ll finish that bottle of my favorite wine tomorrow [...]
