A few weekends ago I had the chance to go back to Chicago, one of my favorite places in the world! I lived there for the two years right after I graduated college and have nothing but fond memories of Weiner Circle and Blue Cheese stuffed olives. This was

Yesterday I checked out the Liberty Bar on 35th Street between 5th and 6th. This is painfully close to my office so I was psyched when a cool bar finally emerged in the death trap of horribly annoying tourists that typically surround me. The Liberty is not just your

I am so impressed I just had to review Excellence Playa Mujeres! Everyone we were with enjoyed this resort immensely and I thought y’all should know! Oh, and when I say “all of us,” I mean 100 people since we were with a wedding party. As you know I

  In the spirit of the holidays I thought I should share with you the most spectacular Christmas experience in NYC! You must go to Rolf’s in NYC! It’s incredible. Rolf’s gives a new meaning to the term “Deck the Halls.” You haven’t seen Christmas decorations until you’ve seen

The Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC (The MET) is open until 9pm on Friday and Saturday nights right now. It’s the best date night ever! We sipped wine in the atrium and were serenaded by a live pianist, cellist and violinist. The wine isn’t cheap, the cheapest bottle

After reading a rave review in the New York Times about Ballato’s elite celeb clientele the forever-tourist in me made a mental note that I HAD to get there. Saturday night I end up down the street with close friends after a few glasses of wine and the clock

Bonjour mes amis!!! And for those of you dolls who aren’t fluent in Francais that means hello friends! This past weekend I had the pleasure of visiting Montréal. Somehow I had never been to this fabulous city despite it only being a mere 6 hour drive away. We were
