A happy August to you! Those of us who aren’t summer people are hanging by a thread, elevating prayers in hopes that we can survive the next two months and arrive to a cooler October. The countdown is real. They do this thing in my neighborhood called Summer Stroll, and it’s always cool to walkContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.01.26”

This Week’s Favorites 07.23.26
We meet again for the favorites! Time just flies. I have added miles of walking to my days. It has come with a combined burst of energy and also deep exhaustion toward the end of the day. Building resistance. Work can be such a little trap that keeps us still for hours. Resist. The summerContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 07.23.26”
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”
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. I felt like I was in two places at once, working across time zones and stupidity. The southern heat was an intense one, and I am not one to complain about heat. On oneContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 07.02.26”
Southern Whimsy
“Everything (in NYC) was meant to serve a purpose. There was hardly room for whimsy or femininity. Trust me, you do not want to wear a sheer, ruffled, floral duster on the subway. But in Florida…” Cara Alwill on life in NYC vs FL By: Gabriela Yareliz As someone who always ruled her life byContinue reading “Southern Whimsy”
Hello, Summer
When summer hits, and all you want to do is go on a road trip.
This Week’s Favorites 06.06.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz Welcome June! I decided to start the summer with a trip to refresh Sephora favorites and a fake tan I forgot to wash off (true story). Why do people on 90s tv shows have breakfast with friends? Who has this kind of time other than the leadership at work who doesn’t showContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 06.06.26”
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. 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”
August
By: Gabriela Yareliz August. A time of transition. The true end and beginning of the year. This time always makes me think of wooden pencils, corduroy, and lined paper with the little holes. I saw somewhere that this autumn is expected to be cooler than most in NYC. August, while still officially summer, blurs intoContinue reading “August”
June 2022 Favorites
By: Gabriela Yareliz A new month begins. June was filled with really magical and fun moments. There were victories, excitement, and stress. It was sort of a harvest month. There are months when we cultivate and months when we reap the result of serious efforts and grace. I read some incredible books on entertaining, startedContinue reading “June 2022 Favorites”
