Baby It’s Cold Out Here!
What an amazing weather retreat this year all through December. We did have a couple of cold days on the east coast in the fall but for some reason, I think El Nino I hear about, Christmas and Christmas Eve were spent with air conditioning and tank tops in New Jersey. It felt strangely odd but […]
What this World is Missing
Such a big title for such a small person like me. Someone recently asked me this question and I did not really have an answer. After thinking about it, I decided it was a very worthy thing to blog about and want people to remember that everyone is entitled to their opinion and this is […]
Another New Year!
There is nothing like the freshness of another new year. We all feel it, cannot explain it, but it feels like the slate has been wiped clean and no matter what happened in the last year, everything will be new, fresh, and clear for us all in the year to come. For years, my husband […]
A Vivid Memory
There are many days that stick with you throughout your life, like your special birthday that everyone was there, your wedding day, the death of someone so very near and dear it hurts to think about, etc. Everyone experiences things that remain so vivid in their memory that it feels like “yesterday” when they think […]

My Motto In Life
What do we expect out of life? What do we want out of life? We are all here for a purpose and it is up to us to define that. I have multiple reasons I believe I have been placed on this earth and live by a certain motto. It is not something I made […]
Our Fears
I am sure that along with about half, if not more of the country, fear has crept into our lives little by little over these past horrific events in Europe and here on our own grounds. It makes us almost speechless and unable to comprehend that a young couple with a new baby would feel […]
Family Traditions
The week of Christmas, our son was able to come home and spend a bit of time with us. It was decided that he would finally learn the recipe for my grandmother’s matzo ball chicken soup. When he arrived and we got all the ingredients out, he was such a good listener and he was very […]
How Was Your Holiday
My day was so perfect on Christmas that I wanted to share. Christmas Eve was spent at my sisters with half of the family and their friends and it was so very relaxing and nice and easy that I felt like sharing. We drove home Christmas Eve and caught some television and a glass of […]
