I usually have semi-humurous, snarky posts. I’m a New Yorker, I can’t help it. Snark is in my DNA. Today, however, Im hoping to take a more serious time. I think I’m allowed to that. We all are. I first visited Los Angeles many, many years ago. During […]
I’m a huge, huge baseball fan. Namely, of the New York Mets and Yankees. Everyone I knew grewing up in the South Bronx lived and breathed baseball. Well, everyone except my mother. She found baseball to be excruciatingly boring. However, she never tried to convince me of her […]
Since January of this year I have been regaling you all with my frustrating, crazy Los Angeles house-hunting stories. Every weekend since the beginning of the year, except two we spent in Hong Kong, have spent some time house searching. I like my agent and I believe she […]

Summer is about to hit soooner than we realize it. Lamentably, spring always goes by so quickly. And for those of us that are older and need a summer reprieve, that season flashes quickly by. Then autumn comes and the beauty of the earth really shines through. Or […]
Stereotypes of cities abound. For many, there is the incorrect perception that New Yorkers are universally rude and unhelpful. But it just isn’t so. Don’t take my admittedly biased word for it. There are studies out there showing New Yorkers are extremely helpful. We are just rushed. We […]
