About

I started this blog in May of 2009 as a way to keep in touch with family when we moved from the Bay Area of California to Manhattan. My husband is attending NYU Dental School, and we have two children; Jack (Bubba) is 3 and Zoe (Birdie) is almost 2. I blog about our adventures around the city and how we are adjusting.

Every now and then I have the opportunity to attend events and review various products. I am either paid in cash money, product or free tickets to events in return for writing about them.  Regardless of that, you can be absolutely sure that the opinions expressed herein are my own and those of my family. The beauty of this community is the opportunity to talk about people, places and things that I like and recommend them to my friends and readers. I have and will continue to promote things that I paid for, and things that I don’t if I think it’s worth it.
