Joseph-In-Prison Moment

By: Gabriela Yareliz I started 2016 feeling cursed. Yes, I said cursed. I am being candid, here. I write some of this with edgy humor, by the way. Bear with me. From week one, 2016 was a mess… There will be a fun, 2016 recap post at the end of the year. It has beenContinue reading “Joseph-In-Prison Moment”

This Month’s Picks: July 2016

Compiled by: Gabriela Yareliz Yesterday, when we checked the sunset time, it clicked for us Sabbath-observer-wanderers of the Upper East Side that the sun was setting earlier, and you know what that means– summer is on its way out. Autumn is getting ready to assume its romantic little place with us. Haunting memories of eternalContinue reading “This Month’s Picks: July 2016”

The Hours: July 30, 2016

The most random, memorable pieces of conversation from the day. Because sometimes, people say things that make you *double take*. – Gabriela Yareliz AM 11:15: “Who is your hairstylist?

The Hours: July 23, 2016

Sex (and the City)?

The ladies from Sex and the City By: Gabriela Yareliz [All images from Tumblr] Don’t worry– this is not a post about the ridiculously self-centered women of the HBO hit show. Nor is this a sex column, à la Carrie Bradshaw. I was on the train this morning, and I saw so many advertisements andContinue reading “Sex (and the City)?”

Sunday Girl/Reflections: June 5, 2016

 By: Gabriela Yareliz I’ll try not to make this a rambling post, but I am just spilling out of my glass right now; overwhelmed with so much– good and bad.

Monday Inspiration: March 28, 2016

By: Gabriela Yareliz From a productive weekend to, what I hope will be, a productive week. Happy week. We begin anew. Last week was absolutely dreadful and draining. Not sure how I survived it, but by the grace of God and my mother’s wisdom, I am still standing. It was a loud week; a headache-inducing,Continue reading “Monday Inspiration: March 28, 2016”
