Sage Bistro [2050 Western Ave, Suite 108 Guilderland, NY 12084] in Guilderland was such a surprise! Located in a strip mall the storefront doesn’t look like much, but you will walk into a classy setting and get some pretty delicious food. We popped in with no reservations early on a […]

Chatham is my favorite little quaint town in Columbia County, there are so many great options here. I recently visited Ben Gable Savories [17 Central Sq, Chatham, NY 12037] for the first time and fell in love at first glance. The gorgeous wallpaper is covered with birds! Off to a […]
I was looking for a short hike near the restaurant I was grabbing dinner at, and Orra Phelps Nature Preserve in Wilton fit the bill perfectly. We had a little bit of trouble finding the place because I tried using GPS intersection of the two streets last in the directions, […]
Saratoga’s Restaurant Week stretches though this weekend (it ends March 29th), so I took this opportunity to visit a fantastic restaurant, and you should too! The Wishing Well in Gansevoort [745 Saratoga Rd, Gansevoort, NY] has a classy atmosphere and seriously delicious food. Just as we were seated and observing […]
On a chilly Sunday afternoon there was no lovelier place than a sunny window seat looking out at the patio in the Saratoga Winery [462 Route 29 Saratoga Springs, NY 12866] dreaming of warmer days. In this spacious winery everything around us was wooden from the floors to the tables to […]
I love the feel of a good farmers market. The Troy Farmer’s Market is my favorite in the Capital Region and it is probably the only thing I like better in winter than in summer! Sure it’s great to be by the river with a breeze, but in winter I […]
I absolutely love the vibe emanating from this joint! We ventured out to Troy for some breakfast and found some easy free street parking (275 River Street, Troy, NY 12180). There was definitely a lot of thought put into the decorating and I really appreciate that. I enjoyed looking around and […]
I was in Manhattan after seeing a play and hungry. It is a goal of mine to become more familiarized with the city and this day was a good start. Hell’s Kitchen has a lot of great options, and we settled on trying some Peruvian cuisine at Pio Pio (604 […]
I took a great hike at Hilltop Hanover with my Mom (1271 Hanover Street, Yorktown Heights, NY 10598) in Westchester. We took the 1.8 mile loop and there are additional paths in the center. There was a group of boys playing hockey on the frozen pond. As we walked past and […]
My Mom had been raving about a middle eastern joint called Hash O’Nash (441 Mamaroneck Ave Mamaroneck, NY 10543), so last time I was in Westchester I had to give it a try. On the main drag of Mamaroneck very close to the train station was the restaurant. We came […]
Tucson is centrally located within a few hours of many interesting cities. To choose between Bisbee, Nogales, and Phoenix was difficult, but I am happy with the outcome and enjoyed my time in Arizona’s capital city. The journey took us about an hour and a half back through that beautiful […]
I am not a vegan, but if I could eat at this restaurant everyday I would become one! Tucson’s Tasteful Kitchen [722 N. Stone Ave., Tucson, parking lot] has amazing gourmet vegan and vegetarian cuisine; no carnivore could deny the deliciousness whipped up here. The atmosphere is intimate and hip; […]
Sanctuary Cove [8001 North Scenic Drive, Tucson, AZ 85743] is an off the beaten path spot that firstly hosts an all creeds chapel, a quaint brick structure quietly situated in the desert. Secondly Sanctuary Cove offers an awesome little meditative desert hiking trail between one and two miles gaining some […]
I am a person who almost always saves room for dessert, but for some reason on this trip I barely had any! One place I made sure to visit was La Estrella Bakery [100 S Avenida Del Convento, Tucson]. The little bakery had two helpful ladies behind the counter who […]
