Do you remember the first autograph you got? Do you still have your childhood autograph book? Besides Mickey and Minnie Mouse, my first "real" autograph was Billy Joel. My cousin got married in the Hamptons and there was a boat dock next to the venue. Someone told us that the "Piano Man" was working on his boat so of course I went down to meet him. I was seven. I remember going home that night and contemplating where I should put the autograph. I think I even slept with it under my pillow. Now, I don't even know where it...

One of the things I like best about Philadelphia is the city's bike-ability. Strap on your helmet and you can venture through the city or take the scenic route behind the art museum.

The bikes range in age and model. Owner, Peter Horstmann, says that business is up 40% this year – in...

This season I've been into fall cleaning. It is not much different than its cousin, spring cleaning. I'm preparing to make a clothes donation in time for the winter and saving some scraps to make something crafty with my sewing machine.
I'm inspired by what others do with "trash" and wanted to share a story about Jason Mecier – a San Franciso based artist – who has been making trash into art for about 15 years. He get his materials from different sources – friends, family, fans and sometimes the subjects themselves.

Confession: I love chocolate. Especially really good, dark, fair-trade, organic chocolate. The kind that feels like silk in your mouth as it slowly melts.
Last night, I found a new chocolate bar at Milk and Honey Market from West Chester chocolatier Eclat Chocolate. Named Happy Cat Organic Chocolate Bar, it is a limited-edition collaboration with Delaware County Happy Cat Farm Grown. Fresh, organic herbs married into organic chocolate equals bliss.
I tried the lavender flavor, which was subtle in taste not too floral with a decadent finish. Other flavors include Rosemary, Basil and Lemon Verbena.
Trust me...
