I am a bit bummed out. I love the holiday season. I get to celebrate both Hanukkah and Christmas. I get to gift people things that I feel suit them. I think through my gifting. I search high and low to match gifts. I take great pleasure in […]
I love ttqvel. I love immersinh myself within new norms. I love eating new foods. Travel is learning, catharsis and a precious gift. Not everyone can do it or do it often. Which is why certain television shows are so important. I was rewatching one of Anthony Bourdain’s […]
She stared at the photograph which was not remarkable in any way. Yet, she was transfixed. She stared and remembered. Memories were stirred and an ache formed in her chest. The photograph was of a lonely street she had walked a few years back when travel was readily […]
A day of gratitude. A day of saying thank you. A day of acknowledging the blessings one has in life. It’s also a day of football, turkey, a big parade, and movies. It’s a smash up of different cultures reveling in different fun activities and maybe breaking bread. […]

Today is supposed to be a lucky day. However, by just stating that, I habe probably jinxed everything. Hence expect it to be an unlucky day. Unless, of course, I knock on wood while I state all this. I’m quite superstitious, you see. All day today, I’ll be […]
I love the holidays. I’m lucky that in our household we celebrate both Hanukkah and Christmas. It’s Chrismakkah. It’s lovely, nice, and reaffirming. I’m all in. Yet, this year I started shopping early because I’m over the idea of shopping in covid times. Masking up. I’ll willingly do […]
I’m tired. I don’t know whether I gained or lost an hour. I tossed and turned. I had even napped. Yet, I’m tired. I’m groggy and foggy, although not soggy. My mind is rattled. All over the place. Time change does that. Inertia does that. The weight of […]
