Pineapple Fried Rice
Living in New York City, you become accustomed to ordering delivery for dinner. Some would say overly accustomed. I’m too tired/busy/sick/late/sad/angry/excited/lazy to cook tonight. Plus, it’s rainy. And my middle toe hurts. What do you want, babe? Pizza, sushi, Mexican, Chinese, Indian, Thai, Vietnamese, burgers, deli sandwiches, Korean, Mediterranean? I think I actually want barbecue. […]

Curveball
So, I am going to rip off the bandaid right away, just like my doctor did Thursday night when he called me with the full results from my biopsies. The bad news: I have cancer. The good news: I have one of the best endocrinologists in the world and will be meeting with a chief […]

Free Friday!
I have been a little MIA on here this week. Or at least I feel that way. Sometimes it is just hard to keep all of the balls up in the air, you know? My attention has maybe been a little more focused on my other two businesses (the ones that, unlike this one, actually […]

Seconds? Oh no, I couldn’t…I’m pregnant.
I expected that raising a 2-year-old in New York City would be an adjustment, coming from the D.C./Maryland area. I didn’t expect that being pregnant in New York would be any different from my first pregnancy. I was wrong, oh so wrong. I put on 65 pounds with my first son. All of our […]
