Hellloooo my summer chickadees, What a week it has been. Here in NYC, we endured the heat wave, legionnaires in the water supply (bless you, UES), The Odyssey premiere (bless you, traffic of the UWS), Canadian wildfire smoke (is the fire punishment for the Canadians killing all those Emus? Kidding— but also not), and lifeContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 07.18.26”

This Week’s Favorites 07.11.26
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”

This Week’s Favorites 07.02.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s America’s birthday week. Let’s gooooo! I love a good birthday. Always. This week was a busy one.

On oneContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 07.02.26”

This Week’s Favorites 05.21.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s our first week back home after some time away, and we are on the verge of summer. It’s so close you can taste it.

This Week’s Favs 05.01.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s 2004 in my brain. My birthday is days away, and I am feeling nostalgic. I bought Bubbilicious watermelon gum 🍉. I saw the Laguna Beach reunion happened, and went back to old clips of the show. All the shows I wasn’t allowed to watch are on my mind, ha. Ahh theContinue reading “This Week’s Favs 05.01.26”
Retreat to the 90s: Pop-tarts, Fitting Rooms and Paradoxes
By: Gabriela Yareliz Have we made everything too complicated? *Plays Avril Lavigne “Complicated”* Cigarettes are always bad, kids, but the meaning of the image above hit home with me. What the hell were we doing in the 90s? I guess doing exercise aerobics videos (remember the step?) and there were crash diets. But it wasContinue reading “Retreat to the 90s: Pop-tarts, Fitting Rooms and Paradoxes”
