Spring has sprung! And in addition to the awesome weather (aside from a few Spring showers here and there), another sign that Spring has finally arrived in NYC is the amazing list of events and activities.

This past weekend, On Location Tours launched their Central Park Movie Sites tour! This two-hour walking tour will offer movie lovers an opportunity to visit the locations of their favorite New York movies while walking through Central Park and tour to more than 40 locations in the world famous park.

The tour is led by actors who share behind-the-scenes scoop and inside industry information. Walkers on the tour will have an opportunity to visit the Boathouse Café used in When Harry Met Sally, the Bandshell from Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Kramer vs. Kramer along with Bethesda Fountain; seen in Enchanted and Gossip Girl. The tour also includes a stop to take photos at Tavern on the Green, from Ghostbusters, a glance at Wollman Rink used in Love Story and Serendipity, and time to feed pigeons at the exact spot where Macaulay Culkin fed them in Home Alone 2.

So, don’t just walk through Central Park, experience it, and be ready to take tons of pictures!

The cost for the tour is $20 per person ($12 for children, 6-9) and runs rain or shine on Fridays and Saturdays at 12 Noon. Tickets can be purchased online at www.screentours.com or by calling Zerve at (212) 209-3370. Private tours are also available by calling 212-683-2027 for more information.

This winter promises to be a snowy one and honestl This winter promises to be a snowy one and honestly, I couldn’t be more excited. Experiencing true four seasons is one of the things I love about living here because everything changes each time. The energy is more serene and mellow. The world is so chaotic and sad in many ways these days, it’s really healing to be surrounded by the quiet and stillness of nature on a snow day in the Finger Lakes.

Almost 6 months ago, and after a few months of hos Almost 6 months ago, and after a few months of hosting just family and friends at home, I launched to the public a “little something” I felt was really bringing me joy and really made others happy too…a reason to come together. 

I wanted something that allowed for more in-person connections in a way that I loved to do so the most…by serving something yummy to strangers and friends alike. Café Cómodo has become more than I expected, faster than I imagined, and some of the hardest work I’ve done to date. But I love it. 

And now, we’ve secured a long term partnership with @sulfurbooks, in Clifton Springs, NY. 

Started January 10, 2026 and every second Saturday of the month till December 2026 (with a few extra events sprinkled in between), we will be serving a community of growing fans in a community bookstore we all adore. 

I look forward to continued growth, more meaningful partnerships, and making people happy, one cafecito at a time. ☕️

Thank you to everyone who has been supportive of my little café dreams from day 1. Look what you helped make possible!! 

Thank you to Sarah and team for this opportunity and to the Clifton Springs community for the warm welcome. 🫶🏾

Growing up in New York City with easy access to it Growing up in New York City with easy access to its holiday sceneries it was difficult to imagine that the holidays anywhere else could feel as special. Then later, my travels exposed me to some pretty spectacular holidays around the world that I would add as absolute musts. And now, living in rural New York, I have to say there is also something very sweet about small town holidays. 

For one, the little parades that bring so many people - many of whom you get to know personally when living in a small town - are really endearing. And also, the generic commercialism doesn’t overpower the holidays because there are so many quaint small businesses to support and shop in. 

And so it very much gives that Hallmark feel that so many people from the larger cities crave, especially this time of year. And while that special feeling might be lost on some, for me, it still is very much palpable and one of my favorite things about living in the Finger Lakes.

I’ve passed through Penn Station more times than I’ve passed through Penn Station more times than I can count, usually with the same mindset: get in, get out, get going. But this time I wandered into the newer Moynihan Train Hall, and for a moment the city actually felt…generous.

Sunlight spills through the skylights, the space breathes in a way old Penn never did, and then you look up - like really look - and there they are: vibrant stained-glass break dancers floating overhead, created by Kehinde Wiley. If his name sounds familiar, it’s because he’s the brilliant artist behind President Obama’s official portrait.

Here, though, it’s not about presidents or formality. It’s about movement, street culture, and the energy that makes New York what it is. A reminder that art belongs everywhere, even above a busy train platform.

If you find yourself here, give yourself the gift of a slow minute to look up above the rush.
