    Sag Harbor Restaurants

    Happy Summer!! With just about all of the Covid 19 restrictions being lifted it’s time for fun in the sun. This July 4th we decided to visit Sag Harbor for the holiday weekend. During our stay we visited a few Sag Harbor Restaurants which I will share in this blog post. I love a great place to eat I guess it’s safe to say I’m a foodie. I typically go off of word of mouth recommendations. But when you don’t have suggestions from others it’s always safe to go to places that have a long line of people waiting. It’s usually a sign of a popular place. Places to eat…

    Meals for Teenagers

    I don’t know about you guys but trying to feed a teenager and tween in my house is giving me anxiety. They are the most pickiest eaters on the planet. But I’m not giving up, I’m going to try and share 4 to 5 meals for teenagers that work for the most part in my house. Are you ready let’s go! During the holiday break my daughter randomly asked if she could cook spaghetti. I asked, are you serious? And she said, yes! So our number one meal for teenagers is Spaghetti. I have to admit I was extremely proud of her. She asked questions and followed through on the…

    How I lost weight in 2 weeks

    For several years I’ve been battling with my blood pressure. Unfortunately high blood pressure is hereditary in my family. I’ve been going back and forth visiting my primary doctor every six months having blood-work done repeatedly to tackle this silent killer. Last June when I visited the office I was seen by the Physician Assistant who wasn’t very personable, staring at the computer screen recommending I start a prescription regimen immediately. I was unhappy with her presence. She wasn’t making me feel comfortable, the vulnerable human being in the room she was talking to at the screen. The first question I asked, “What were the alternatives to medication.” She stated,…

    A Day in Brooklyn

    Well Murray friends summer is coming to a end but it’s not quite over “Until the Fat Lady Sings.” We are going out with a Bang! No we really aren’t it just sound good. We like to take every opportunity there is to get out and do something. Sometimes something means doing nothing but it’s all good. What am I talking about? IDK just pretend I do. This post is not sponsored Two weeks ago we ventured out to Brooklyn to support my husband’s friend Carl. At the Fairway in Red Hook Brooklyn, he’s selling the “Best Fish Sandwich in the World.” They are called “Fyros” and they come in…

    The Murray’s Summer Getaway

    For the past three years we have made it a tradition to visit Martha’s Vineyard. Growing up I’ve always heard of this place typically from The Kennedy’s and most recently The Obama’s visiting, I never thought it would be a destination I would fall in love with. My husband was invited to visit for the African American Film Festival week in August 2015. I contacted a co-worker because I knew she was from Massachusetts and her family had a home on the island. Jaz provided me with guidance on traveling to the island ….. Thanks Jaz!! It was right on point I found a hotel in Middleboro, checked the hotline…

    Staycation Hoboken

    This post is not sponsored all thoughts and opinions are my own. When was the last time you’ve been on a staycation? We typically like to change up the scenery every month or every other month. My children especially Sadiah (daughter) are always asking “Can we stay at a hotel.” I’ve been promising to take her by the new Hilton on Route 22 in Springfield NJ. She has a fascination with hotels. I tell you “Generation Z” have Champagne taste with a Snapple budget. I guess who is to blame, we created this mini. What can I say she has great taste! This past weekend my husband asked me if…
