I have depression. I have anxiety. I have an eating disorder. That was scary. It’s not that you have a right to know this, but I want to share this part of myself with you. And that is my right. I don’t like hiding or pretending these aren’t parts of me just as much as … Continue reading
Booze, Boats and Babes
Follow my blog with Bloglovin Last week the clan went on a long-awaited family vacation to Jamaica. The five of us took a much needed break from school and work to spend some quality time in a beautiful country. The girls packed some bikinis and little else and the boys used it as an excuse … Continue reading
Blue Water Grill
I’ve wanted to get to Blue Water Grill for the last four years or so, but I’ve never been able to come up with an excuse. A night out with my Singaporean friend Peixi was the perfect reason. We hadn’t seen each other in forever (a few weeks felt that way) and majorly needed to … Continue reading
Beauty Binge
Since I was a little girl I’ve been obsessed with lotions and potions and every smoky black eyeliner I’ve every gotten my hands on. While this was a nuisance for my mother, who had to pry red lipsticks out of my chubby little hands, it was terribly fun for me. Once I was allowed to … Continue reading
I Must Not Tell a Lie
I have one of the worst kept secrets in my family.

But lately I’ve come to the realization (with the help of … Continue reading

I Got It From my Mama
Genetically speaking I’m a bit of a mutt. Half of my family is straight of the boat from Italy and the other half came over on a much earlier boat in the 1600s. I love my heritage and I’ve gotten wonderful things from both sides of my family. That said, everyone always comments that I’m … Continue reading

Kittichai
This Sunday my best betch and I went to brunch at Kittichai. Last weekend we tried to go for their steal of a brunch (prix fixe at $25), but accidentally made the reservation for the day before… Instead we tried out Toloache, which is less reasonable but just as delicious and fun. Kittichai is in … Continue reading
When is it O.K. to Put Food on Your Body?
I’m personally in the camp of the more edible the better, but this post is a little more G-rated than that. Here we’re talking milk & honey hair masques. Most natural foods have plenty of great health and beauty bonuses, which is why I always go DIY when making hair or face masks. They’re much … Continue reading
