"Fun fact about me is that I love tikka masala. I think it is the perfect meal for a cooler night. But in true Andi fashion, what do I do? Put every vegetable in my fridge into the recipe. It certainly is a trend in my at-home cooking. This chicken curry is one of my [...]
I have become increasingly more cognizant of the values of the brands with which I work, and seek to work with those that align with my own values. Prior to writing this post and more broadly, prior to wearing anything from Brass and agreeing to work with the brand, I researched it. I directed my [...]
When I was approached by Macy's Backstage earlier in the summer in regards to their new location at King of Prussia, I did my online research. Unlike its Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Neiman Marcus counterparts, Macy's Backstage does not have an online merchant presence. Rather, it is more like a T.J.Maxx or Marshall's, in [...]
My husband and I celebrated our one year anniversary this past Saturday. High fives for us for making it beyond 72 days. To be honest, the year flew by. We started our day by opening my husband's gift to us. Did you know that the traditional first year anniversary gift is paper? He ordered us [...]
"Labor Day has passed, the Autumn Equinox is quickly approaching, and pumpkin spice everything is on the horizon. However, summer can still be seen (for the moment) lingering in the farmers markets in the mountains of North Carolina. Pole beans, summer squash, and heirloom tomatoes are sharing shelf space with pumpkin, gourds, and heirloom apples. [...]
Last weekend was the first in seemingly forever - real time: month and a half - that my husband and I were both in Philadelphia. Either he is out of town for work or we are both out of town because wedding season. However, we had a two philanthropic events scheduled for the weekend, so [...]
While I was in Marblehead over Labor Day weekend, I made the conscious decision to lay off my phone. No reading my email. No checking Instagram. No tweeting sassy quips. No texting. Just enjoying the weekend and living in the moment. This idea came to me as I started to recognize a soreness in my [...]
Have you ever been invited to a wedding and only the bride and groom and five other people (a mere seven total) knew the details of the where? That was the wedding I went to over Labor Day weekend and it was the most amazing wedding I have ever attended as a guest. During the [...]
"Homemade hummus is great for a quick, after work snack or to use as a spread on a wrap filled with roasted vegetables and spinach. Whichever you choose, this recipe is quick, healthy, and delicious. We used to go through a twelve ounce container of hummus a week; either spreading it on a sandwich or [...]
Has everyone lost their ever-living-esh over the arrival of Autumn, or what? Last Saturday, I ran out for a few errands - casual laser hair removal treatment, grocery shopping, picking up a painting - wearing a pair of denim cutoffs, linen tee shirt, and rain coat. When I walked out of my building to my Lyft, [...]
My husband and I spent Labor Day weekend in Marblehead, Massachusetts. It was the town where my mother-in-law and her four siblings grew up. While we were there for a wedding and I knew that it was going to be a blast, I had no idea how much I was going to love Marblehead itself. [...]
I was thrilled to find this Milly NY dress in my size on eBay NWT for a steal. I have said it before and I will say it again: while I like the new version, I love the older iteration of the brand more than any other label. It was just so feminine and chic. [...]
