Blogaversary: A Blog Turns One, The Adventure Continues

Exactly one year ago, on December 10, 2008, I published my very first NYCity Mama adventure. I wrote about Ft. Tryon Park. People ask me a lot of questions about my "blogging career", and honestly, I don't have the answer to a lot of them, except for why I started.[...]

New York Hall of Science, Corona, Queens, NY

It's a beautiful, yet very cold day here in New York City.  On days like these many parents are going a little crazy trying to figure out what to do with their kids. I have a few "inside" favorites, like the The Brooklyn's Children Museum, the American Museum of N[...]

Christmas Tree Hunting at Hahn Farm, Salt Point, NY

I am in heaven. Thanksgiving came and went, and that in itself was an awesome time for our little family unit. But what I love the most right after Thanksgiving is going to a Christmas tree farm, searching for that one special tree, cutting it down, and bringing it[...]

Thursdays in Washington Heights. It may seem like just another day in the neighborhood to an outsider looking in, it may seem like just another work day to those just walking through to catch the train downtown. read more[...]

How I Finally Got to Sesame Street

Ever since I was a little girl, I have always been fascinated by one of the most beloved shows in the world, Sesame Street.  It was a staple in our immigrant-filled home back in the early 70s.  I was even nick-named Cookie Monster by my mom (and later on Cookie b[...]

Pumpkin Picking in Dix Hills, NY

This past weekend my family and I decided to go pumpkin picking.  I had a list of places I wanted to try but it was Sunday, and some places in NJ that are closer to the city are closed on Sundays, other places seemed too far.  So we decided to look on the New Yor[...]

But, above all, our people are resilient and capable of more than you can imagine. Let us move forward with our heads held high, with dignity, and courage.

We found this spot a few years ago, before we moved to the area full time while at a rental nearby and immediately fell in love with its community and cozy vibe, and delicious coffee. 

It’s even cuter than when we first visited while all the reasons we love it remain. Always worth a stop when in Geneva.
