Manhattan Cocktail Classic 2013
Last Friday Kevin and I went to the third annual Manhattan Cocktail Classic at the New York Public Library (Read about last year’s gala and the 2011 gala here.). Being Kevin and my third Cocktail Classic as well, I kind of felt like a veteran. I had no problem just having a sip or two of [...]
Orphans on Broadway
Last week I got to see Orphans on Broadway starring Alec Baldwin, Ben Foster, and Tom Sturridge. It was AMAZING. I figured it was good since Alec Baldwin is in it and it was nominated for some Tony Awards, but I wasn’t expecting it to be as good as it actually is. Orphans is a [...]
Lucky Guy on Broadway
Two Saturdays ago, my boyfriend and I went on a double date to see Lucky Guy on Broadway. Saturday also happened to be the day of the Kentucky Derby race. One of my co-workers had me pick a horse for him to bet on, so I wanted to see how “itsmyluckyday” did. We went to Southern [...]
April Wedding in Long Island
This past weekend I went to Long Island for one of Kevin’s coworker’s wedding . It was a beautiful late April wedding in Oakdale. We rented a car on Saturday morning, picked up some of Kevin’s other coworkers and we all headed to Long Island for the ceremony. After the ceremony we hung out for [...]
25th Birthday in Michigan
I’m not a huge birthday person anymore. Growing up my parents always planned a special day for more whether it was a surprise party with friends or a nice dinner followed by a dozen presents. After entering college, I stopped really caring about celebrating my birthday. I remember I didn’t even want to do anything [...]
Skiing in Park City
This past weekend my boyfriend and I flew to Salt Lake City for a little ski trip at Park City. It was my second time skiing to go skiing in my life at. My first time skiing was at Squaw Valley, so the bar is being set pretty high. It was a quick trip; I flew to Utah [...]
Remembering to Live Each Day
A few weeks ago I learned a valuable piece of wisdom at an unexpected time from an unexpected person. One morning as I was riding up the elevator at work I made small talk with an old man that I often see around the building. I said something like, “It’s only Tuesday and I already [...]
My First Time Skiing at Squaw Valley
This January I went skiing for the first time. Yes, you read that correctly, I just learned how to ski. Better late than never though, right?! I flew to Reno and my boyfriend picked me up at the airport and we drove to Squaw Valley in Tahoe. I was really nervous not just because my first time skiing was [...]
Trip to Paris
I traveled to Paris for the first time a few weeks ago. Kevin and I flew in on Friday night and arrived Saturday morning. After we checked into our hotel, Francois 1er, we took a nap and then walked three miles to have dinner. On the walk I saw the Eiffel Tower for the first [...]
Broadway Review: Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
A few weeks ago I got to see Tennessee Williams’ Cat on a Hot Tin Roof starring Scarlet Johansson. I was really excited because I kind of have a girl crush on Johansson. Her raspy voice makes her sexy but not intimidating. She does not disappoint in Cat on a Hot Tin roof either; I think she [...]
