I can think of no better way to spend a summer mid-week evening in the city than browsing at the Copley Farmers Market… and sweating my face off at the gym… and enjoying Whole Foods and Joosbites and heavenly Mix Bakery cupcakes. And I can…

Today: High heels and the Hall of Fame.
Inspiration often comes from surprising places. Take these shoes, for example. You call them ugly, I call them… unexpected. They’re half a size too big, but they were on sale for under $40.00 (that’s less than $20 a shoe!…) and in a sea of black…

Today: South End stroll.
Sunday drivers are the worst. Especially on Mondays. Wow. I am a regular ol’ grouch. I once saw a bumper sticker that read, “I am not on your vacation.” I am that bumper sticker, personified. Occasionally. I am much more charitable when it comes to…

Today: Float the lazy river.
If only that poor family traveling west on the Oregon Trail in their rundown wagon had to cross the Lazy River, instead of those pesky rapids. I imagine they’d caulk the wagon and float every time, likely ending up in the Caribbean. Or Louisiana at…

Today: God Bless the USA.
I hope you all had a fabulous 4th! We kicked off America’s birthday bright and early, heading to the starting line for the inaugural Harvard Pilgrim 10k in my hometown of Foxborough, Massachusetts. Some people spell it without the -ugh, but ugh… I find the…
