Hi from Israel! This is my first post in over two weeks, but only because it’s been a crazy, transcontinental, time-shifting two weeks. The Sunday before last, I boarded a plane to London, had breakfast in London, and then boarded another plane to Tel Aviv only an hour later. Three continents in twenty-four hours. It […]
Read MoreIt’s my last week in Boston… oh my god. I am not even close to being packed, having started watching Parenthood yesterday. I now have a half-empty suitcase and a full-on obsession with the Braverman family. Anyway, here’s a photographic/link-o-graphic (my new made-up word) recap of my week… I can’t stand the music video for Miley […]
Read MoreHappy Fall, y’all. I’m in this weird limbo where I have to pack summery close for Israel, while the weather gets colder here. Very confusing. But here are some of my transitional favorit This fierce Forever21 tank My new favorite fragrance for fall and forever! It doesn’t hurt that Marc Jacobs fragrances have the cutest […]
Read MoreHappy New Year to all my fellow Jews, and happy September to all! This week’s finds: Addie. Freaking. Hamilton. This girl has one of those unique voices. Think Billie Holiday. She only has two videos on her youtube channel so far, but her take on “Blurred Lines” is awesome. Tom Hiddleston, my celeb crush/all-around awesome […]
Read MoreAs a non-picky eater, and a Jew, I am a huge fan of Shakshouka. Honestly, anything with eggs and vegetables, and I’m good to go.

Read MoreIt’s September 1st, Labor Day weekend, so summer is over. I’m getting ready to move to Israel for rest of 2013, and I’m very excited about that. But there’s always something so heartbreaking about the end of summer. Summer is a romantic season, full of adventure, late nights, and beach days. Tomorrow, I’ll drive over […]
Read MoreI was raised in a big Jewish kitchen. My mom, averse to the confines of recipes, taught me how to spice and experiment. She cooks, bakes, feeds, and astounds. My dad also cooks – pastas in rich sauces for me, his vegetarian black sheep, and chicken or BBQ for himself and everyone else. Shabbat dinners […]
Read MoreTomorrow marks the end of our big Cape vacation. Sadly, we’re not just going back to reality, we’re also going into fall. I’ll either be spending my semester in Israel or at Harvard, so the idea of the new season is technically exciting. But i’m always so sad to end summer and leave the Cape. […]
Read MoreWhether we like it or not, fall is on its way. The days are getting shorter, and the night air is starting to have a bit of a chill. So while I’m enjoying my vacation on the beach, and trying to soak up as much sun as possible, I’m still really excited for fall fashion. […]
Read MoreHampton’s, Bar Harbor, Newport. Everyone has their vacation spot for a preppy, WASPy, beachy summer getaway. I was born into a Cape Cod family. For over forty years, my mom’s family has been coming to Yarmouth, Cape Cod, and from the middle of May through Labor Day, we’re at my grandma’s summer house every weekend. […]
