This Week’s Favorites 08.07.26

By: Gabriela Yareliz What a week. Scott Lobaido flatlined and got brought back to life. He is still being iconic from his hospital bed. The humidity reached new levels. The NY Post called it “Caribbean” levels of humidity. Whatever it is— we feel it. I sweat so much this week. Yesterday, my jeans left myContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.07.26”

Rollerblades

By: Gabriela Yareliz Where did all the rollerblades go? Did someone kidnap them all and bury them? Did they disappear with Toys-R-Us? Did the manufacturing center go bankrupt or burn down? We used to rollerblade so much on the 90s. Why is this not a hobby anymore? And don’t tell me it’s because too manyContinue reading “Rollerblades”

This Week’s Favorites 07.18.26

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”

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”

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. Summer fridays just around the corner, even though we had hail yesterday. I have this itch to clean. To work out. To plan. To be tan. ThisContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 05.21.26”

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”

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”

Daylight Savings to 1997

The Olsen twins had those little bangs and short hair. Stacks of American Girl catalogs and magazines. Home videos. Music video channels. Shakira didn’t speak English. Phones were attached to a wall. Long distance calls were done with calling cards. The 101 Dalmatians were all the rage. We were all Disney princesses. Recess was forContinue reading “Daylight Savings to 1997”

Welcome, March!

By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy March! We enter the month that invites an unstable spring into our lives. It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade. -Charles Dickens It’s the season of spring break andContinue reading “Welcome, March!”

This Week’s Favorites 2.17.26

By: Gabriela Yareliz Strawberry milk was my favorite as a kid. Speaking of favorites— these are some of the things that have caught my eye these past few days. Megan Roup in conversation with Pia Mance (and yes, I did a The Sculpt Society workout shortly after). This palette photo reminded me of college: AnContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 2.17.26”
