With Wife Appreciation Day held on the third Sunday of September each year, now’s the time to think of ways to mark the occasion. Typical suggestions might include flowers, chocolates, or dinner at a nearby restaurant. But instead of same-day gestures, imagine waking up to views of swaying palm trees and the Caribbean Sea, and it’s just the two…
Hiiii! Happy Friday! What are you up to this weekend? The Pilot is home from a trip (YAY), and we’re just hanging out this long weekend. We’ve been traveling a ton lately (and were honestly looking forward to another short trip this weekend!) but I’m looking forward to a low-key weekend at home with the crew. Our friends are…
Aren’t you tired of having the same discussion before every kitty party? Yes, we are talking about those regular conversations: “Where should we meet this month?” “Shall we plan something different?” “How can we make it better than that other kitty group?” Thinking, who has spilled the beans? Well, that’s the talk of almost every kitty group. But you…
Sharing my version of the amazing Whole Foods red lentil dal soup, which is one of my very favorites. It’s gluten-free, dairy free, and a plant-based source of protein and nutrients. Hi friends! How’s the week going so far? I’m in content creation mode for something new I’m working on and doing the usual school and sports scramble with…

Behind the scenes, I’ve been working on a new program (more to come soon), subbed a barre class, and have the wrangling the crew. The girls are busy and thriving with school and their extracurricular activities, Lola is… on…
Every wedding anniversary is special for couples, be it the 1st or the 10th. But some anniversaries need a special celebration. Your first anniversary may call for a quiet romantic escape with just the two of you. At the same time, your 25th or 50th anniversary may be the perfect reason to bring your family and closest friends together….
Kids Group Lessons are different this winter. They’re more flexible, give you back your time, and, new this year, families can build a six-day lesson program around their own schedule instead of building their schedule around the lessons. That’s a big change and a big plus. For 2026/27, you have more control over what your day at Crystal actually…
Hiiii! Happy Friday! How are you? What’s going on this weekend? We’re finally finding our groove with the kiddos back in school and the Pilot’s travel schedule. Liv is back in dance, P is taking a break from basketball to play soccer, and we’re already looking forward to fall break. This week, I’ve been diving back into work stuff…
Are you still planning to celebrate your birthday in that same way? How about turning it into a little escape? Well, gone are the days when birthdays meant booking a restaurant for a few hours, cutting a cake and heading back home. These days, people choose to turn their special day into a short getaway, where they can relax…
