This fall, I’ve spent a lot of time wandering around the woods with my dog and listening to a variety of audiobooks and podcasts wearing my groovy new over-the-ear headphones. I have either really big or really small, like, ear openings because I could never get earbuds to stay in my ears. It would beRead more…

Friday Faves: Stuff I’m Legit Obsessed With
Let me just say that when I like something, I really like it. That holds for wine, Game of Thrones and certain ex-boyfriends. Oh, and outerwear. Can’t get enough outerwear. Lately, I’ve been hot for a bunch of things and it goes without saying that two of them are Seed to Sprout’s Kimchi Rice BowlRead more…
Friday Faves: Jersey Corn Style
My 20yo, who’s a junior at a big state school, decided last minute to come home last weekend and take a break from exams, projects and weekend daging (day drinking+ rage = daging). Naturally, one of the the most important topics of conversation as we prepared for her arrival, other than how she was goingRead more…
Friday Faves: Stuff I’m Obsessed With This Week
It’s the first Friday in August but honestly, by this time of the summer, all the days begin to blend. The only way I really can tell it’s the weekend nowadays is that it’s impossible to park near the beach and my adult children — who’ve “moved out” — are standing in my kitchen eatingRead more…
Friday Faves: Bell, Books & Candles
I can’t tell you how much I love this time of year. #1: I don’t have to worry about putting on a bathing suit for months. #2: I don’t have to go outdoors and pretend I’m having fun. In other words, I get to release my inner homebody. I love putzing around my house andRead more…

Friday Faves: Book Addict
Hello, my name is Amy and I am a book-aholic. You guys, I have a problem. Some people gamble. Some can’t stop buying shoes. I am addicted to books. I love to buy them. I don’t necessary always read them. Or at least finish them. But I have a lot of them. They sit inRead more…
Friday Faves (or ‘What’s That Smell?’)
If you’ve been out of the country or locked in a closet or somehow not tapped into the Worldwide Bloodstream (see video below), you might not be aware that I recently put my house on the market. It’s been a challenging process — clearing out all our clutter, sprucing the place up and keeping itRead more…
Friday Faves: Two River Edition
Here’s the thing about me: when I like something, I generally tend to really like it. Whether you’re the person who colors my hair, a turkey and avocado sandwich or my boyfriend, chances are I’m going to try to keep you around. I mean, I’ve been going to the same hair lady for almost 20 yearsRead more…
Friday Faves: Believe in Miracles
As of about 48 hours ago I was still complaining about my life. I was feeling overwhelmed. I had a lot of work to do. I had too many kids. I had a bunch of driving back and forth from the middle of Pennsylvania to New Jersey awaiting me. I needed to get my daughter readyRead more…
