With a trip to Miami looming in the coming days, I wanted to make something a little bit “lighter”. There isn’t much excitement to this soup but it was light yet filling. Plus hey, I got to use leeks for the first time and if that isn’t exciting…. well I’m not sure what is. It’s the little…
taken at Marina Beach Reserve in October 2011 I’m not really one to talk about purging history. I quite literally have shoe boxes of cards, ticket stubs, and receipts hidden in my bedroom at my parent’s house. I blame my mom. Ever since we were little – or I guess as long as we were…
When I coerced my sister into spending a Winter weekend in Hyannis, I think she signed up expecting great views of the water. Thankfully, I was able to deliver those shortly after our arrival as you can see. But there was so many more “unique” moments that we needed to capture for posterity sake. It was quite…
Yesterday, I managed to complete another bucket list goal. The half-marathon. It was a really exciting day and I’m super thankful for all of the digital (and in-person) support I received along the way. I get a little anxious before big days and I hate not fulfilling goals, so I pretty much all out banned…
Over the course of the last 6 years or so, I’ve given up some real challenging things for Lent. Now, I get it. It’s supposed to be challenging. But, one year I kicked caffeine cold turkey and another year I gave up celebrity gossip. Most recently in 2008, I gave up french fries. If you…
So, this is the last week before my half-marathon. Last Thursday night, I accidentally looked up how far 13 miles is … and began to get anxious. This entire time I’ve been pretty laid back about the whole thing. Training schedule? What’s that about? I certainly have no idea. But, the last few days I’ve…
I’m a one man soup kitchen these days. It’s quite literally all I’ve been making … and it’s oddly addicting. I’ve been a fan of A Cozy Kitchen‘s blog for over a year now and seriously everything this woman makes is incredible. So last weekend it was oddly good timing that I had a…

standing at the edge of Boston Harbor I’ve always been “active” …. More or less that is. There have been spans of time when my gym shoes collected more dust than I care to admit, but all in… I would say that you could describe me as “active”. But, I think only recently you could…
A lifetime ago. I realize that a year is a long time but sometimes it truly feels like a lifetime ago. Last Valentine’s Day?Early morning train ride to NYC, worked late at the office, ate a room service cheese burger in bed. This year? Early morning run around Boston Harbor, visited the seals at the…
