Why everything comes at once I will never understand. This week is going to be an extremely busy one as I am making a giant baby shower cake for my friend Bernadette’s shower on Saturday and I also have an interview on Friday. Since I am usually a last minute kind of person, [...]

It’s been over a week since I last posted, and for those of you that use this blog to check up on me … yes, I am still alive. It’s amazing what a total energy drain anger is. Ever since I had that meeting with my boss that I mentioned in my last post, I’ve [...]

Upside: I can breathe today (although my voice is going).
Flip-side: Rage would be a SEVERE understatement to describe my current emotional state.

We initially decided to take Friday off to head to the College Women’s Club of Montclair’s semi-annual booksale. Jay took a sick day and I took [...]

My variation on a classic recipe that’s well loved. What’s better than a plain rice krispie treat? One that satisfies both a sweet AND salty fix. I’m sure I’ll be trying different combinations of cereals and nuts in the near future … and if I stike upon anything else super tasty I’ll be [...]

Some people turn to alcohol, drugs, gambling or sex when they feel the need to release some steam and destress. Me? I turn to cleaning. A scrubbed clean house that you could eat off the floor in means that you are entering into some dark place in my mind if I am [...]

New York, NY 10003
Stopped in for a quick lunch here the other day, and all in all, not too bad. Granted, it’s no Pat’s, but it was a decent cheesesteak. The menu is simple and instructions on “how to order” are as follows: choose your [...]
