By: Gabriela Yareliz I eventually made it home from Nashville. I took a flight from hell with little-to-no AC again (JetBlue), trapped in a seat with parents who had zero control over their children. (And these were not babies— we understand babies). The mom kept shrieking next to me, “MOMMY IS DOING HER BESTTTTT!” IContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 07.11.26”

Calming Hunger at the Redneck Riviera
By: Gabriela Yareliz I felt like I had wandered a desert on an empty stomach. I am being dramatic, but the heat was intense (like where the air looks squiggly). I felt alone on the street aside from the occasional screaming bachelorette party on the bike bus contraptions. I knew that a few miles fromContinue reading “Calming Hunger at the Redneck Riviera”
Where is the Stargazer’s Lounge?
By: Gabriela Yareliz My eyes were scanning a long line of taxis, empty and ready to go. JFK would never. That would be too smart. When you arrive to BNA (Nashville International Airport), you are spoiled for choice. A taxi driver signaled to me, telling me to walk to the front of the cluster (whoseContinue reading “Where is the Stargazer’s Lounge?”
JetBlue (Sweat) Ghetto
By: Gabriela Yareliz We were delayed. “It’s getting hotter and hotter,” the pilot told us. So we would be delayed further because they couldn’t get the plane to cool with external units. *collective sigh from the cohort of southbound travelers* The plane had no functioning AC on the ground. The day wasn’t even sweltering. ItContinue reading “JetBlue (Sweat) Ghetto”
Game Four
This is a shallow report… brace yourself. By: Gabriela Yareliz Listen, we can talk about how Carolina brought game. They beat the VGK with the Staal goal and the wild Ehlers empty-netter from the other side’s boards. Rod Brind’Amour was wide-eyed, and Dominique Ducharme for VGK, with the white hair and beard, had crazy eyesContinue reading “Game Four”
Prime Time Capsule
By: Gabriela Yareliz Prime holds a time capsule. Guys, I just found out this weekend that Amazon Prime shows live television loops. I discovered this because Brendan Burchard’s GrowthDay Network streams on Prime for free. You can watch his conversations and coaching sessions with Ed Mylett, Trent Shelton, Mel Robbins, Erin McManus, etc., on there.Continue reading “Prime Time Capsule”
Baby Jesus
“Oh my word, we have one more. I didn’t see that one. Someone left us another baby Jesus!” Lady with the blue eyeshadow at the Citrus Welcome Center in Ocala By: Gabriela Yareliz Everywhere we went, we found baby Jesuses. At the citrus center, restaurants, coffee shops, and even our captain on the glass bottomContinue reading “Baby Jesus”
Today’s Dose of Nostalgia: Pluto and VHS
By: Gabriela Yareliz I saw this and smiled when I saw Pluto and its mixed status. Spoiler alert— now, while Mars is the most popular, Pluto remains on the list. As children, we were intrigued by it. Then, they told us it wasn’t a planet. We didn’t care. We are the generation that kept Pluto.Continue reading “Today’s Dose of Nostalgia: Pluto and VHS”
Restaurant Jordnær
This Chef Eric Kragh Vildgaard video left me with chills. It’s powerful. If you can’t watch the whole thing, please watch the last ten minutes. My husband and I like to watch these chef videos, and this is probably the coolest kitchen and culture I have seen so far. This chef’s life is quite remarkable,Continue reading “Restaurant Jordnær”
Bloody Hell
By: Gabriela Yareliz I felt a rush go through my entire body, and then, a knot surged in my throat. I was walking to a training at a law firm in The New York Times building (yes, that New York Times), and I was scurrying toward the building from the train. I was excited aboutContinue reading “Bloody Hell”
