Happy Memorial Day! Life is so good right now. Just spent the weekend in Charlottesville, Virginia. My friend Lucy lived there for seven years and wanted to go for the weekend so her and I and two other friends – Susan and Carlos – rented a car and down we went! Since I’m from the [...]

Ok, I think I might be a Yankees fan now. A couple of weeks ago I went to my second game for the season and it was A-mazing. Last time, it was opening week and it was freezing and we left half way through. This time, it was perfect and the game was so exciting, [...]

Another non-food post from City Mitten! For two reasons 1) I feel like I haven’t eaten out somewhere decent in weeks (obviously this is not true). 2) I went to Prospect Park tonight after work with Missy and Chad and it was fabulous. Everything we do together just confirms to us that we should all [...]

Hello, crab! So the one eating-out adventure we went on in Myrtle Beach was at the lovely, the glorious Giant Crab: I told you Myrtle Beach was a different world. Driving down whatever road it is we drive down, all you see are countless seafood buffets, each with a different theme or gimmick or what [...]

Hi! This is where I’ve been the last few days. Myrtle Beach, SC. Spent the weekend with nine of the coolest people and it was the perfect break. I don’t seem to have too many pictures, since we spent hours on the beach and I didn’t want to drop my camera in the sand (like [...]

I realize it’s not exactly summer yet, but looking at these pictures makes me feel like it is! Rooftops are fun. I don’t have one, but Missy does. So does my friend Lucy. Rooftops are the bomb. So after our adventures to DuMont the other day, we went to Missy’s pad back in Bushwick and [...]

Missy and I made it back to DuMont! And she was actually able to stay this time! Fabulouso. I think DuMont is becoming one of my favorite restaurants in Brooklyn. I mean I LOVE their outdoor patio. So much fun. If I lived in Williamsburg, I would be there every weekend. And then some. Here [...]

Motorino is NYC’s latest pizza obsession. Slice loves it. I tried to go a few weeks ago and the wait was too long. But I finally made it to the East Village location with some of my peeps and it was pretty good. This top pizza here is cremini and sweet sausage and we also [...]
