Happy Monday and hello, December! I have to admit that going back to work first thing this morning is not particularly ideal, partly because I’m still in a bit of a food coma but mostly because these last few days were so fun and busy that I feel like a long nap is in order […]
Happy Friday, but most importantly, Happy Halloween, everyone! While I am so excited that we’ve reached one of my favorite holidays of the year, part of me is also a little sad that this month is coming to a close – especially because this October in particular was filled to the brim with travel, adventures, […]
It has been a long time since I’ve stepped foot in New York City, with my last day trip/weekend in Manhattan and Brooklyn taking place circa 2018/2019. I used to go fairly often – for parties, performances, pop-ups, or to visit with friends that were stopping by the area – but with COVID and my […]
The camera roll on my phone says that since December 31st of 2023, when I was preparing to spend my New Year’s Eve in Boston, I’ve taken/saved 2,780 pictures throughout this past year – although I feel like that number should be double or even triple with the amount of traveling I’ve done, concerts I’ve […]

When I first launched ‘Coffee & Chiffon‘ all the way back in January of 2020 (can you believe it’ll be five years in just a few months!?) one my goals was to highlight and showcase some of my favorite businesses, oddities, and off-the-beaten-path spots in and around New England – and beyond! – that were […]
And just like that – June 2024 is coming to a close! While making plans for Independence Day seemed like something I had plenty of time to do weeks ago, I’m now left frantically searching for a recipe I can whip up for a cookout I’m attending next week, double checking booking/restaurant reservations I made […]
