I mentioned in a recent Weekend Reads that my family and I went to Mastic Beach on Long Island for a summer family vacation. Our uncle and his partner live close by, their kids live in New England, so we’ve started having an annual beach trip/visit our Uncle/Dad each summer to stay connected. Why We… Continue Reading Our Summer Family Vacation in Mastic Beach
Last month, my family and I went on a 12-day road trip. We took a similar trip in 2019, but this time we visited some different cities. This time we were dealing with COVID, and also we are now a vegan family. Below I share where we stayed and where we ate on our vegan… Continue Reading Vegan Family Road Trip: Where We Stayed and Where We Ate
Every summer for over a decade, my mom, sister, and I have gone to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware for a long weekend. When my daughter came on the scene, she joined us. We always stay at the same hotel, we go to the same restaurant Saturday after being at the beach for crabs (though my mom… Continue Reading Renting an Airbnb at Dewey Beach, Delaware

I love staying in a good hotel; it’s a treat to… Continue Reading Renting an Airbnb at Lake Anna, Virginia
It’s been a bit since my first post about our summer road trip, but that’s typical for the end of the summer. It’s a blur of cookouts, Labor Day parades, and next thing you know the kids are back to school and you’re wearing sweaters and closed-toe shoes. But the memories from our two-week summer… Continue Reading Visiting New York City and Boston as a Family
At the beginning of the year, my husband and I made sure to keep the month of July empty in case we were to go on a vacation. We hadn’t taken a proper summer vacation since our cross-country road trip a couple of years ago and were itching to travel. However, we didn’t know where… Continue Reading A Review of the Windsor Suites Philadelphia
This is a much-belated post, but do not think the delay has anything to do with the awesomeness that is Richmond, Virginia. I had the pleasure of spending a weekend in this city earlier this year and had such a great time I look forward to returning. I shared previously my Rebelle Conference review, which… Continue Reading A Weekend in Richmond, Virginia
