By: Gabriela Yareliz Yesterday, we honored our veterans. At brunch, I saw many with their symbols of service— hats, tags, jackets, walking canes. All the things. The New York Rangers v Calgary Flames game had a solemn moment of respect for American and Canadian veterans and service members at the start of the match. ItContinue reading “Thoughts on Service”

New York Tuesday Morning
By: Gabriela Yareliz I am on the train listening to Brooke and Connor’s podcast. I am excited to see DWTS and how the last episode before the semifinals plays out. The sky is bright, visibility is clear, and I see the skyline as I approach the city. The NY Rangers played the Oilers (again) lastContinue reading “New York Tuesday Morning”
This Week’s Favorites 11.07.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It has been a week. This week, I literally had to calculate my age on a calculator because I couldn’t remember how old I was and had tacked on like three years. (The sudden panic, guys…) It was a special week in that I got to see Michelle Branch. The Beacon TheatreContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 11.07.26”
Michelle Branch Day
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s Michelle Branch Day. I have been thinking about this day since she announced her tour. If you told me when I was ten that I was going to see this woman, I would have passed out. When you are a kid and you play pretend, you don’t always get to beContinue reading “Michelle Branch Day”
Never Enough
By: Gabriela Yareliz I kept thinking about the article I saw yesterday that says you should always carry a notebook. I forgot to stick my little field notes notebook into my bag, I thought to myself as I ran out of the door this morning. I looked up and saw the white pale shadow ofContinue reading “Never Enough”
This Week’s Favorites 10.24.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz We’ve reached the end of October. The days start in the low 50s and end in the 70s. So hard to dress. I sweat through two jackets this week. I know I am always talking about sweating, but I don’t think I have sweat this much in my life like this year.Continue reading “This Week’s Favorites 10.24.26”
A Bit Better
By: Gabriela Yareliz I saw a question in passing the other day— what could make your life 17% better this week? Let’s go— Not getting slapped in the face by the napkin on the street that gets swept up by the wind and flies wildly looking for its next victim. (Sick). Getting some appointments bookedContinue reading “A Bit Better”
Wisdom from Tracy Tutor
Because sometimes you need to fight like a girl. By: Gabriela Yareliz I enjoyed Tracy Tutor’s Fear is Just a Four-Letter Word. It’s a great book on how to work with difficult people and succeed in difficult situations. I never saw her on reality TV and yet somehow, I landed in her orbit. She isContinue reading “Wisdom from Tracy Tutor”
This Week’s Favorites 10.16.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It was unseasonably warm this week. Please, we do not want to regress into summer. I sweat more than I care to admit, this week. Ever had those moments where you are like, is it my period or sweat that I feel soaking through my pants? (And given my track record— itContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 10.16.26”
Laundry Snapple
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s Thursday, which means Sabbath prep. Part of that means doing laundry. As I was chatting with my mom, we remembered that when I was little and we lived in an apartment, our family went to a laundromat. I have a memory from this time; sitting, waiting and drinking a Snapple. It’sContinue reading “Laundry Snapple”
