J&R introduces J&R Jr.

This past weekend I was lucky enough to attend the blogger event for the newest downtown “mecca” children’s outpost…. J&R Jr.  It was so nice to see the amazing turnout of local bloggers and their children.
While taking photos for the event I found myself constantly paying attention to details and let’s just say there was no shortage of that! Everything from the food to the entertainment was outstanding and I have no doubts J&R Jr. will shine as the newest kid on the block.  Upon entering the vast space, one can easily see how this is the place to be for children’s gear!

The “NEW” Atkins Cookbook

I had the honor today of attending the most fabulous luncheon hosted by “The  Moms“.  The event was held at  “Donna Karan’s Weiss Studios” in the West Village.  I never turn down a chance to visit my old hood and I had a nice quick trip down memory lane after the event.  On this cold winter day, it was great mingling with my favorite bloggers and discussing the delicious food that was on hand.

Go See This! Stick Fly on Broadway

I had the privilege of attending the performance of “Stick Fly” this past Saturday night.  As a guest of “The Moms” I went solo to check out this performance that I have heard so much about.

Leave it to me to get turned around in Times Sq. of all places, but I finally made it to the theater in time for the opening act.  I was extra excited to see RENT royalty Jessie L. Martin and Rosario Dawson sitting nearby in the audience. Continue reading Go See This! Stick Fly on Broadway

Summer in the City Part II

Summer has officially come to an end and what a summer it was!  I was lucky to have escaped an earthquake but not so lucky with Hurricane Irene. Other than the highly irritable weather, the rest of my summer was excellent! After years of being a non-driving New Yorker, I decided to jump behind the wheel, load up my GPS and was set free! I drove from one end of the Hamptons to the other for the good part of August.  I met my clients on the beaches and in their homes and had the most amazing family photos shoots that I will never forget! There was sand, water, smiles, wind, and rain but everything worked out in the end just as it should! Continue reading Summer in the City Part II

Swimming with Aaron Piersol

A couple of weeks ago I had the privilege of attending an event at the Empire Hotel with my son and significant other dadarocks!. Considering it was the 2nd hottest day of the year so far…. being at a rooftop pool in the city was too good to be true! The special event was hosted by auro-dri….. the official product of the American Swimming Coaches Association.

On hand to spend time with our little ones was Aaron Piersol, the official spokesperson for auro-dri.  Who would know more about swimmer’s ear than an Olympic Gold Medalist?  Aaron was amazing. He entertained the kids, showed them proper swimming techniques and silly water tricks all afternoon! Continue reading Swimming with Aaron Piersol
