Happy Sunday, friends. I wanted to start off the week with some curated encouragement straight from my inbox. We don’t know what the week holds for us, but we know that what we have is today. Today, we can prep, rest and recalibrate. I loved the following quotes and articles: “Life will eventually bring youContinue reading “Sunday Girl: January 14, 2018”

New Project: Modern Witnesses
Hi all! It has been a stressful couple of days with Hurricane Maria devastating Puerto Rico. It has been a time of anguish, helplessness and political dissatisfaction, to say the least. In the midst of all of that, I have been working on a great little project that has continued to remind me to turnContinue reading “New Project: Modern Witnesses”
I Am Not Your Spic
By: Gabriela Yareliz I Am Not Your Negro (film) was a pretty emotional experience for me. It was probably emotional for every person who one day woke up and realized that he or she was being treated differently than his or her white counterparts. It was also probably a provocative affair for those watching who haveContinue reading “I Am Not Your Spic”
Sunday Girl: June 18, 2017
By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy Father’s Day to all the papas out there! We are starting a new week! Last week, I celebrated one year with my love, and I ate a giant artichoke for the first time.

Sunday Girl: April 23, 2017
[Image from Tumblr] By: Gabriela Yareliz A happy Sunday morning to you! French election, round one, kicks off. I need to find a minute today and whip out some stationery and write to Madame about our election concerns. I think I will wait until I see who dominated in this premier tour.

Friday Glee: April 7, 2017
By: Gabriela Yareliz Some words I collected throughout the week: “If something inside of you is real, we will probably find it interesting, and it will probably be universal. So you must risk placing real emotion at the center of your work. Write straight into the emotional center of things. Write toward vulnerability. Risk beingContinue reading “Friday Glee: April 7, 2017”
March Madness & 73 Questions
“Springtime is the land awakening. The March winds are the morning yawn.” Lewis Grizzard in Kathy Sue Loudermilk, I Love You By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy spring. Here in New York, one minute, it feels like spring is finally here with a sigh of relief– the next minute, it’s bone-chilling cold.

Sunday Girl: January 29, 2017
By: Gabriela Yareliz On Sundays, I wake up like Kate, from the movie No Reservations. You know, the chef. She wakes up early to pick out the fish and truffles for her fancy West Village restaurant. I wake up early and pick up the missing ingredients for the dishes I want to make for theContinue reading “Sunday Girl: January 29, 2017”
Sunday Girl: October 23, 2016
By: Gabriela Yareliz Friday came to a close as I sat down to eat a stale piece of leftover pizza after making my apartment look like Monica Geller had come to visit. As I chewed on the pizza, I perused an article about the shelf life of pizza in a refrigerator, on BuzzFeed. Halfway throughContinue reading “Sunday Girl: October 23, 2016”
Sunday Girl: October 9, 2016
[From the Dillon-Panther Tumblr] By: Gabriela Yareliz It was one of those lazy Sundays. It was raining since early morning, and it rained throughout the day. Everything was grey, up until the sunset. Then, the sky turned blue and yellow. I ate pumpkin pancakes and potatoes, and then crawled back into bed. I did allContinue reading “Sunday Girl: October 9, 2016”
