Where to visit, and When, Why, and What the heck to do while you’re there.
On a recent trip to San Francisco, we took a day trip to Napa. Our friends arranged for a driver to bring us to and from so no one had to worry about being the designated driver. It also made us feel very fancy. We didn’t go to a ton…
I’ve been dying to go to the Museum of Ice Cream ever since it was a pop up in New York City. Finally I made it! Here’s the low down.
When I was a kid we had a ton of books. There was one story that I especially loved called Mischief in Fez, which was full of djinns, and animals that could talk and shape shift, and of course, lots of mischief and guess where it was?? I didn’t even…
