Back again with more Amazon Prime Day recs! I have had very little time to compile more, so this time we’re diving into beauty and personal care deals, because self-care is the best care. Especially when it’s discounted. 90% of these (I think, I’m bad at math) are the products […]

Prime Day Travel Picks 2025
As someone who has gotten a lot better at packing things they need and not wasting a ton of space, I feel confident in saying: these are the little travel items that make a big difference. Whether you’re traveling across the world or just escaping NYC for a weekend, these […]
My Picks for Amazon Prime Day 2025
IT’S THAT TIME AGAIN. Amazon Prime Day is upon us and as always, I’ve gone full raccoon-mode and rummaged through the internet garbage (aka endless Prime Day listings) to bring you the shiny things that are actually worth it. Because I’m not here to waste your time or money. I’m […]
Is Una Pizza Napoletana Worth the Hype?
Something funny happened this weekend: I was talking to my friend about where to go for pizza, and we both agreed we wanted to go some place different or new. And I had a craving – a SERIOUS craving – for that chewy, leopard-spotted, beautifully blistered crust that only comes […]
Is 4 Charles Prime Rib Worth The Hype?
TLDR: Yes. If you’ve ever tried to snag a reservation at 4 Charles Prime Rib, you probably aged a year in the process. This West Village supper club is notorious for being booked solid, but occasionally you can luck out with a 5 PM Tuesday table popping up on Resy. […]
7 Beauty Things I’m Obsessed With Right Now
Let’s be real: there are TOO MANY beauty products out there. We live in a world of overconsumption and I am definitely guilty of overindulging by way of shopping sometimes. I bought a few things at the Sephora sale recently, and I also tried some products from various brands on […]
Dumpling-Making Class at Buddakan NYC
If you lived in New York in the early 2000s, you probably know Buddakan as the place to pregame for the Meatpacking club circuit – or maybe you just remember it from Sex and the City (Carrie and Big’s rehearsal dinner in the movie). Either way, I hadn’t stepped foot […]
What’s New at Citi Field in 2025
Let’s get the painful part out of the way: I couldn’t eat anything this year at Citi Field’s annual press preview because of a coronectomy. Yes, that’s a thing and no, I don’t recommend it. But don’t worry! I still licked a lot of the food for the sake of […]
Soft Foods Diet for a Coronectomy
If you’ve recently had a coronectomy – or are preparing for one – you’re probably wondering what you can eat during recovery that won’t make you miserable. Soft foods, again?! Yes, but hear me out. A soft foods diet doesn’t have to be bland, boring, or sad. In fact, with […]
Is The Corner Store Worth The Hype?
TLDR: Yes. Yes it is. Sitting on the corner (obviously) at 475 West Broadway is The Corner Store; nothing looks less impressive from the outside if I’m being honest, but inside is a gorgeous space (designed by the Rockwell Group) filled with gaggles of attractive people sipping their Sour Cream […]
