NEW L'oreal Lash boosting Mascara & Serum


While I have to admit that I haven't yet been able to try this new mascara & serum, I love, love the idea of increasing the thickness of my lashes.  I have seen all of the recent commercials with Brooke Shields for the restasis lash-building prescription product and I have thought what a great benefit that product provided.  I never really considered buying it though because I am sure a prescription product would be expensive.

Now that L'oreal has come out with a drugstore brand of product I fully intend to try and boost my lash thickness.  Stay tuned as I planned to comment further on how well I think it really works.

Please note:  I am a buzz agent for this product.  I am not paid to promote, but I am asked to spread the word on it.

Lululemon Groove Pants



These are my favorite pants for working out.  Lululemon is a Canadian company that has opened several retail outlets in the US and now also has a retail website- lululemon.com.  I'm lucky enough to visit their stores in NYC but they have several stores across the country.  They also have great tops and I especially love the funky, laminated, eco-friendly bags that they put your purchases in!

Natural Dentist Dental Rinse

I am very diligent when it comes to visiting the dentist.  However, when it comes to day to day dental care I am not as diligent with the flossing.  I consistently am told by my dentist that I do not floss enough which is why my gums bleed.  On the advice of my dentist I tried Natural Dentist dental rinse and my gums have been noticeably healthier in the last 6 months.  My hygienist noticed immediately how improved they were versus the last office visit.  Trust me- I didn't floss any more than normal.  I just used the rinse daily in the evening.  It tastes so much better than Listerine and works a lot better too!  I buy mine at either CVS or Harmon Drug.

le pain quotidien



This bakery/cafe brings back fond memories of London for me.  Yes, it is a chain, but London was where I discovered it (on Kensington High Street) and  enjoyed many girly brunches, and lunches with my husband.  You can pop in for a coffee and a pain au chocolat or a wonderful open-faced sandwich.  You will also notice the many communal tables which help create a boisterous environment.  P.S.  there are several locations but I rediscovered this cafe in Soho.

Moroccan Oil


My hair has never been straighter and it also has a nice silky feel!  This stuff also smells great too.  I bought mine at drugstore.com but I also just saw it at Harmon where you can also use your bed bath & beyond coupons for 20% off!!

They also have a whole line of other products that I am looking forward to trying.

Peasant Restaurant


A low-key and fabulous find in NoLita.  Fabulous martinis and homemade ricotta alongside the bread, mad a great accompaniament to the delectable pasta dishes.  A great meal was had by all.

Reservations are taken in advance!

Rice to Riches



I found such a little gem in NYC today.  It is a Rice Pudding Cafe called Rice to Riches.  It is located at 37 Spring Street in Nolita in NYC.  They had over 20 flavors + toppings.  I tried the coconut banana but ultimately went with the cinnamon raisin.  Yum, Yum Yum!  check out their website for overnight delivery too  rice to riches.com.
