July 5, 2017 Tuesday Water Cooler – Exploring Hudson

Tuesday’s water cooler post is coming to you a day late due to the holiday yesterday. Growing up, my dad used to work at a pharmacy in Hudson (that is no longer) and sometimes I would get to go with him. He’d let me walk two doors up to the pizza place to get dinner, […]

June 20, 2017 Tuesday Water Cooler – Greenway Open Market

I thought I would start the summer with a “Tuesday Water Cooler” series. I’m sharing with you what we did on the weekend (I need Monday to put together the post). So this was two weekends ago, but we did yard work this past weekend, and I’m sure you don’t want to see pictures of […]

This year’s event (it’s the holiday market’s 10th year!) was held at the Benjamin Franklin Institute at 41 Berkeley Street. […]

We took the train to Brooklyn to go to Smorgasburg, also known as the Brooklyn Flea Market. The Fort Greene location can be found at 176 Lafayette Ave. (btw.

February 8, 2013 Aruba Souvenirs

Just wanted to share some fun souvenirs from our trip to Aruba. I can’t tell you the name of the woman we bought these from, but she rents space in a stall outside of the Baskin Robbins. I think she is super talented and she hand paints all the driftwood herself. The fun, bright colors […]
