I, Gabriela Monsanto, have single-handedly found the best dairy free ice cream available – don’t worry, you can thank me later. Whenever I venture home to Long Island I am desperate to find good dairy free desserts. In New York City I have my designated vegan dessert locales. Unfortunately, Long Island is not as advanced […]

Boots: Eileen Fisher With every Fall Season comes a new bootie. I’m a huge fan. For those of you who follow my blog, you know my obsession with Eileen Fisher.  While I love her clothing, I do understand why some view it as an older woman’s line.  However, there can be no debate when it comes to the […]
