1. Wonka Movie: We don't often go to the movies, but last week we took the kids to the Wonka movie. It was great! I didn't know what to expect and I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. And of course, we needed lots of candy for this one! If you're looking for a family-friendly outing, check out this movie. 

2. Chicken Meatballs in a Lemon Caper Sauce: I saw this recipe on Instagram and wanted to try it. Laura loves chicken francese and Jack loves capers, so it was a win-win. The sauce is very similar (if not identical) to a francese sauce. Laura doesn't like capers, so I went light on them and Jack added extra to his portion. It was easy to make and a big hit in my house. I'm going to add it to our meal rotation. 
3. Madonna - The Celebration Tour: On Monday night I trekked into the city with 3 of my girlfriends to see Madonna at Madison Square Garden. When we originally bought the tickets, the show was supposed to be in August. I was not excited about going into the city on a Monday night, and even less excited when I heard she comes on super late. The show was scheduled for 8:30, and Madonna took the stage at 9:55pm. It was worth the wait! She was amazing! It's hard to believe she's 65. I've been a Madonna fan since I was in fourth grade so this was a bucket list concert. 

4. True Botanicals Products: My friend Tara introduced me to this skin care line when we in Mt. Tremblant. Tara has rosacea like me and raved about True Botanicals. I normally don't spend a lot of money on skin care, but I decided to give it a shot and take better care of my skin in 2024. It arrived this week and so far I love it. I'm using the Ginger Tumeric Cleansing Balm, the Pure Radiance Oil, and the Phyto-Retinol Sleep Serum. They all smell SO GOOD and feel great on my skin. 

Thanks for reading. Have a great weekend!

Happy Friday! The summer is coming crashing to an end and I'm not happy about it. But I am excited for the new school year. We're in Hampton Bays for one last weekend and I'm really trying to relax and enjoy every minute of it. We have friends coming out tomorrow for one last hurrah! Here are some of my favorites lately... 1. New Wall Gallery : Earlier in the summer we did a family photo shoot on the beach. One of my summer projects was to switch out the canvases in our hallway, which had photos from 8 years ago! The kids were babies in them....it was time! I moved the canvases to Brian's office. I went with something a little more modern and ordered these acrylic frames from Pottery Barn.   2. New Balance Sneakers: I just got these 327 sneakers from New Balance. I saw a woman on the train wearing them and had to have them. I didn't realize how popular they are right now until after I purchased them. My sister has several pairs and lovs them. She wears them to commu...
Friday, November 8, 2024 1. Joe McIntrye in Drag the Musical: On Wednesday I met some friends in NYC to see Joe McIntyre in Drag the Musical. I'm a huge NKOTB fan so I couldn't miss the opportunity to see my favorite New Kid on Broadway. We had bar stool seats right on the stage! Besides gushing over being so close to Joey, we really enjoyed the show. It was funny and entertaining. Afterwards we saw Joey leaving the theater and he was super nice and happy to take photos with us.  2. Old Navy Sequin Skirts: I wore this Old Navy black sequin skirt to the theater; along with my NKOTB BlockCon tee shirt. The skirt was really comfortable and not itchy at all. I also bought the long sequin skirt in the silver color. I haven't purchased the dress yet because I can't decide on a color but it's in my cart. These pieces are affordable and perfect for when you want a little sparkle.  Old Navy Short Sequin Skirt Old Navy Long Sequin Skirt Sequin Dress 3. Target Bow Heels : I ...
July 19, 2024 We're wrapping up on second week of camp and summer is flying by....I'm trying to enjoy it instead of thinking about summer being over soon. On Wednesday my cousin Gerard and I took the train into the city to see the Irish band the Saw Doctors perform at Central Park Summer Stage. We had about a 25 block walk from Grand Central to Central Park and we popped into bars as we made our way uptown. We even made an impromptu visit to my sister at her office building. It was so much fun! The concert was great but the band had to stop after an hour because of lightning and thunder. Just as we were walking out of the park the skies opened and we got SOAKED! The train ride home in soggy wet clothes was NOT a favorite.  I have a long list of small house projects to accomplish this summer. This week I did a deep cleaning of Jack's room. One down, several more to go!  HeyNuts High Waisted Leggings:  I didn't do much shopping on Prime Day, but I did score these Hey Nuts...
