Oh Sunlight, Where Art Thou?

BySusan Chan October 1, 2014

Some of you are beginning to get a bit freaked out that the sun is starting to set at 7:30pm.No more summer cocktails on the patio or fresh-air activities with the kids after work. This darkness makes us want to make a beeline to our caves (a.k.a beautifully Feng Shui-ed homes).I actually didn’t even pay any attention to this seasonal…

Feeling Hot, Hot, Hot!

BySusan Chan July 30, 2014

Gosh darn it NYC, it’s hot outside. Summer is definitely here in its full and beautiful glory. It’s beach / watermelon eating / dancing under the stars weather and all I hear from those around me is, “I’m exhausted.” So what’s up?
