With February winding down and the weather warming up over these past couple of days, I thought I’d try to manifest an early Spring with the help of a bright, floral-printed cardigan I picked up recently from New York & Company– which had originally been a part of their Valentine’s Day collection for 2020. I […]
When I was in college, I worked a series of part-time jobs to make ends meet in-between classes, studying, and preparing for my degree. I’ve done a little bit of everything- from waitressing, retail shifts, to working the lights at a comedy club in Harvard Square. One of my more well-known jobs way back when […]

To some, it might seem a little strange that I would enjoy spending a perfectly good, warmer-than-expected afternoon wandering around the overgrown grounds of what was formerly a psychiatric institution- but Medfield State Hospital is surprisingly more peaceful than it is frightening or ominous.
