Today: The vacation before the vacation.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]In Jersey Shore speak, this week feels a lot like the vacation before the vacation. Next week is tee shirt time, and this week is the tee shirt before the (even more gaudy) tee shirt. Even though I am working like a maniac…

[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]I love happening upon a new spot in the city to enjoy a cup of tea, a chat with friends and a plate full of treats. I also love being surprised. When I think of a Hyatt, I think of that time I…

Today: Glove up.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] I like to think of myself as a peaceful person. I tend to gravitate towards balance and calm, and shrink away from hand-to-hand combat. Fighting on television, in movies and in real life (obvi) makes me extremely uneasy. Magical violence is especially…
