I had a nice evening hike at Indian Kill preserve in Glenville the other day. It was a quiet evening, we ran in to only one other person along the way. We took the red trail all the way out and back so that we could see all three waterfalls. […]

My first experience with Croatian cuisine was very positive at Dubrovnik in New Rochelle. The place is very popular and only bar seats were available, but we were happy to get in and try it out. Bread and water were supplied and we waited a short time for our meal. […]
Lasdon Park is a very unique place located in Katonah which I enjoyed exploring. It is a relatively large park with many well maintained trails to hike upon. By the main parking lot there are lovely flowers and fountains and benches to sit and take it all in. The area […]
Lots of running around will make a girl hungry. I had the pleasure of filling my belly at Little Crepe Street in Mt. Kisco. This joint was decorated adorably, had remarkably quick and friendly service, and great food! It is small inside, but we got a nice little window on […]
I visited the Katonah Museum of Art, a small but interesting place in Katonah. The exhibit was on Iceland and they included two galleries and a video. The galleries included art work of the flora in the land and topography maps. There was a sculpture made from collected junk from […]
I had a lovely time exploring and hiking about Teatown Lake Reservation in Ossining. I walked about their education center and looked at the local animals including turtles, snakes, and walking sticks. I viewed wildflower island completely blanketed with wildflowers. I hiked around the lake and couldn’t count all the water […]
I celebrated my birthday recently, and there’s no one I like to do it better with than my Mom! We had all sorts of adventures around Westchester and Long Island. My annual birthday lunch is at Surf’s Out in Kismet, Long Island. We park at Robert Moses State Park and walk […]
I recently hiked Monument Mountain in Great Barrington. When entering the parking lot I realized it is a very popular hike, there were tons of people there. This did not hinder the enjoyment of the hike, however. We did not encounter too many people along our climb to the summit […]
We visited Shwe Mandalay last night and had a great experience eating Burmese cuisine for the first time! The place was quiet, clean, and service was top notch. There is a small parking lot, it was great not having to park on the street on Central Ave. I enjoyed some […]
Went to Cider Belly Doughnuts today and I was impressed, Dunkin better watch out. It was just past the lunch hour and only a few people were buzzing about the place. Fresh donuts were being baked and the joint smelled swell. I asked the guy behind the glass what his […]
I just got back from an amazing trip to Toronto, Niagara Falls, and Letchworth State Park. I’ll break it down day-by-day: Day One Saturday morning we left real early to make Toronto by lunchtime, which was had at the St. Lawrence Market. Some locals recommended having a Peameal Bacon sandwich […]
I love Indian food, especially on a cool rainy day. I normally go to Shalimar, their food is great and it is very close to home. I love them. However, I have heard from so many people that Karavalli in Latham is the place to go. We went there on […]
A good beach day is one of my most cherished things in the world! I love the ocean air, the vitamin d, and all the natural treasures that can be found in a good beach. Sherwood Island State Park in Connecticut is one of my favorites! It is a bit […]
My Mom and I had such a hoot visiting Muscoot Farm in Katonah, Westchester. The grounds are free to enter and there is a whole lot to see! First you notice all of the farm animals. I enjoyed observing and spending some time with the many different creatures about. There […]
