How do I explain where I’ve been, what I’ve been doing or why I have not been posting. I really have no explanation other than things were really busy and I did not feel very inspired. I did write a top ten for summer but as time went on, anything...

Eye Candy Florals, was started by Amy Sapirstein, a local Scarsdale mom of 2 girls, during the Covid craziness. Finally following a long-time dream, Amy graduated from FlowerSchool NY in May and launched her company, a small, in-garage, floral studio over the summer. Her goal is to bring some happy...

EAT  Westchester blogger and friend Shey posted 10 Waterfront Restaurants in Westchester this week.  http://www.glambyshey.com/10-waterfront-restaurants-in-westchester/ New Ice Cream Shop in White Plains:  https://www.instagram.com/icecreamsocialwp/ Random tidbit and Westchester Foodie news: Did you know that Walter’s Hot Dogs products are now being sold in DeCicco’s Stores?  I read about it on Westchester...

I absolutely love Taylor Swift.  I have also loved Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez over the years, mainly because I think they are positive females for the most part.  None have had perfect lives; some have had mental health issues and/or addiction issues.  They have all had relationship...

This month’s Westchester Woman Wednesday is Leslie Josel.  She’s quite possibly one of my most incredible finds here in Westchester, and she’s not even from my usual type of eat/shop/play categories.  She fits more into my “mom life” category and she’s someone I had to share with my mom readers. ...

I really love keeping this running list.  It’s a perfect place to keep things “written down” and when I reach 10, I can post it.  In no special order, here are some good finds from April.  I’ve got everything from spring cleaning to reading to dining out to party decorations! ...

I was so excited to hear that White Plains was getting a Fogo de Chão in Westchester.  My family has visited their locations in San Diego and Miami while traveling and it was always a favorite. I have picky eaters in my household, so a place with lots of choices...

Last month, I posted info about a new medical spa opening up in Westchester.  Here’s the link to that article.  Today I am going to follow up and give a full review of my experience with botox and fillers at Verve Medical Cosmetics in Irvington. Truth be told, this wasn’t...

Earlier this year, I welcomed a guest blogger to my site. I generally prefer to have things written in my own voice, but when I step out of my lane and want to offer something that I think a lot of readers would want, I find the people that know...

I’m very focused while being very scattered. Really I am. I have a million ideas of things to write and people asking me to post or share things all the time.  Recently, I have been completely unable to even respond to so many of the things that come across my...

  VERVE Medical Cosmetics, for 20 years New York’s premier non-surgical aesthetic and anti-aging treatment studio, is opening the Verve Loft Westchester in the industrial loft spaces at the Bridge Street on Hudson complex in Irvington, NY. The new studio will enable Verve Founder Dr. Stephen Bracci to serve existing and new clients in...

2020 has been very difficult for kids. They have had to remain socially distanced from their friends, teachers, sports teams, and even family. Adolescents and Young Adults are missing out on some of the most memorable times of their lives and feeling disconnected. This disconnect often causes loneliness and anxiety...

I have a guest blogger this month.  I don’t usually like to have anyone else’s “voice” on my site but when the person makes SO much sense at the absolute perfect time (my daughter is a freshman in high school) I have to give them the floor and share what...

So many things come across my email during the course of a month.  I don’t get to post everything, whether it’s an invitation, a press release or a sponsorship/partnership email.  The things that I do post are things that I find the time for because they are unique, super timely,...

Have you seen my posts about Boxed Holiday?  I shared some pics online in December but never got around to posting them on here. I realized that most of us had our holiday decorations up by that point so I made a note to circle around in January for a...

In January 2021, the White Plains BID is debuting the first ever White Plains Restaurant Month. Local restaurants need support now more than ever as they try and recover from the long-lasting impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. From January 2 through January 31, more than 20 White Plains restaurants are...

It’s hard to believe that this is my last Westchester Woman Wednesday of 2020. I’m wrapping up 4 years of these monthly posts with this one and it’s actually very fitting that this month it would be Sara Davidson Johns. As women, we are constantly changing and growing. We all...

Since I posted my top book picks, I decided I needed some titles for kids too. As a former teacher, I know hundreds of titles and themes/lessons to accompany them. I’ve learned a lot along the way with my own kids too- but there’s nothing better than asking a librarian...
