The pumpkin patch at Tougas Farms last weekend was a bustling backdrop for photoshoots galore… babies, engagements, family portraits, you name it! I can’t blame anyone as the colors there were gorgeous and vibrant, reminding me of why this is my favorite season in Boston.

After Nick and I shoveled some warm apple crisp (with vanilla ice cream, of course) into our faces, a sweet lady came up and said she had to know where this sweater was from, because it’s so darn frustrating finding ponchos for a shorter frame! I feel her pain, as the nature of these pieces is already roomy and oversized, so finding ones with the right length and amount of volume is key.

This poncho sweater from Maison Jules fits nicely on my frame in XS regular. I paired it here with some old favorite pieces from years past! Ponchos in general are meant to be a little oversized for coziness – this sweater hits at my hips, and the sleeves are shorter plus can also be pushed up if you want to have a wider range of arm movement (and bonus: to show off a patterned tee underneath). The turtleneck is a long tube so I’ve folded it down twice here.
Most poncho sweaters actually come in grouped sizing like “S/M” or even “one size fits all” due to the unstructured style, so it might not hurt to try a size up if yours is sold out. Compared to ones I’ve tried from other brands, this felt true to size and well-proportioned for someone petite!

Home Chef Meal Delivery Kit Review

There are a few companies offering meal kit delivery. They are in the news a bit at the moment, with the best-known provider of such a service, Blue Apron, being in a bit of a legal pickle. It’s an ideal time for competitors to try and capture some of the market share that Blue Apron may well lose considering their current negative press. A great alternative on the other hand is Home Chef. I’ll be honest, I was incredibly skeptical of such a service. I live in New York City: it’s not difficult to find a store selling well-priced fresh food. At the same time, to get the best deals on grocery shopping, you need to buy in bulk. Well, in my household, it’s just me and my fiancée in an apartment. We simply don’t have room for bulk buying to save dollars. My pet peeve is the amount of food waste. The average American wastes one third of food per year. When you consider the amount of people who could really use that food, that’s shameful. But, in saying that, when I end up buying...

J. CO DONUTS & COFFEE AT SM MEGAMALL

A few months ago, as I was strolling along Greenbelt 3, I saw a sign about this Donut place that would be opening called "J. CO Donuts and Coffee".  It's supposedly really big in Indonesia and Malaysia, and they've started opening stores in China and Singapore. Last March 15, Rina and I dropped by the opening of J. Co Donuts and Coffee's first Philippine Branch at Megamall to grab us some donuts, just to see what everyone seemed so excited about. Unfortunately, the line that had formed for the opening was ridiculous, and we were told that if we wanted to buy a donut, we might have to wait around two hours. Yes, you read that right. Two Hours. For a DONUT. So to call J. Co's arrival here in the Philippines "a success" would be a massive understatement. As you could imagine, I wasn't planning on standing in line that long so I decided to go back the following Saturday morning, where there was a good sized crowd inside but virtually no li...

REVIEW: STARBUCKS - JAVA CHIP FRAPPUCCINO ICE CREAM

Nobyembre 07, 2017 Starbucks Java Chip Frappuccino Ice Cream offers the taste of a Java Chip Frappuccino in ice cream form. Of course they could have just called it Java Chip Ice Cream because it's just coffee ice cream with dark chocolaty chunks. A pint normally sells for $4.99 at my local supermarket but I picked this one up on sale for $2.50. A far as coffee ice cream goes, this one has a rather pronounced creamy, rich, coffee flavor that I like very much. There is a bit of a weird fine sand grittiness to it though. It doesn't bother me much but it might be off-putting for some. I'm really not sure what causes it. While the dark chocolaty chunks don't actually contain chocolate, they do a good job of providing a solid  dark chocolate flavor when you come across one which is good enough for me. I'm a big fan of coffee ice cream and Starbucks Java Chip Frappuccino Ice Cream does a pretty good job of it with a tasty hit of coffee flavor and dark fudge chun...
