It’s that time of year again for a “Field Day at Night”. I can guarantee this will be the most fun non-profit event you go to this year. Come hit the batting cages, rock climbing wall and trampoline – and no, your kids are not invited! The best part is that the night benefits B*CURED… read more
The Greenwich Historical Society hosts many fabulous events year-round for adults and children. During the holiday season one of the most special things they offer is the Winter Antiques Show hosted December 5-7th at the Eastern Greenwich Civic Center in Old Greenwich.

Looking back – not my finest fashion hour. Fast forward 4 years and as an on-air reporter I owned 3… read more

I knew then and there that I needed to share this brand with my readers. There is nothing I like more than a piece of jewelry that… read more
