  • Have you ever tried something that was so yummy, you almost got angry at it? Because you knew you’d be addicted and craving it for the rest of your life? That’s how I felt the second I tried the soft shell crab bun at Kobeyaki on the Upper East Side. The crunchy ocean-y crab, soft…

  • I’m seriously obsessed with The Bouqs Co. One of my BFFs recently turned 30 and I wanted to send her flowers for her birthday – but most floral delivery companies charge you a buttload for delivery services alone. Case in point: I always send my mom flowers for Mother’s Day or her birthday, which supposedly…

  • One Woman Army

    Copy/pasted from what I posted on my Facebook page: Man… So when I wrote/recorded/released “One Woman Army” (basically a million years ago), I created it solely as an anthem for myself. Still, it was a little (JUST a little… I ain’t complaining) disappointing when everyone’s favorite song of mine was “Remove Yourself” – a cheeky/clubby…

  • As much as I want to win a Grammy for songwriting someday, I don’t watch the Grammy Awards. And one of my best friends, an actress, avoids the Oscars like the plague. There’s so much shadiness, politics, and general corruption involved with award shows that I can’t really bring myself to watch them anymore, and…

  • I have been obsessed with lip stuff since the days of Bonne Bell Lip Smackers and random sparkly glosses from the Sanrio store.

  • Getting Out of an NYC Funk

    Oops, has it really been a whole month since I last posted? My bad, y’all. Coming back to NYC this time around was extra tough (1 1/2 months away from the fast-paced lifestyle totally threw me off), so it’s taking a few weeks to get my mojo back. I’d say I’m about 60% there. In…

  • The secret is out: I’ve been hiding out here in the Pacific Northwest since mid-December. Do I miss NYC? Well, duh – that is, when it comes to the excitement and the fact that I have carved out my own little comfortable niche over there. But other than that, it has been SUCH a nice…

  • As much as I love New York City’s foodie scene, I have yet to find a restaurant to top the one place I’ve been in love with since high school – Seastar. Founded by chef John Howie, Seastar Restaurant & Raw Bar encompasses the best of what the Pacific Northwest has to offer: comforting dishes,…

  • My Grown-Up Christmas List

    ‘Tis the season, everyone! I just finished writing out my Christmas list; but this year, it’s different. Rather than listing out a bunch of “stuff” that I’d like to receive on Christmas morning, I have decided to make a list of several different organizations that I will be donating to during the holidays. From monetary…
