As 2025 begins, we are gifted a blank canvas, a chance to dream boldly, live fully and embrace the beauty in every moment.

This year isn’t just about resolutions.

It is about reveling in the journey, savoring the meals that bring us together, the destinations that awaken our curiosity and the quiet joys that remind us of life’s abundance.

Let’s step into this year with open hearts and open minds, ready to discover new flavors, friends, uncover hidden gems and to pass kindness forward.

Strive to make 2025 a year of connection, adventure and unforgettable experiences.

Here’s to dreaming about winning, the NY Giants drafting a franchise quarterback and the NY Yankees make not signing Juan Soto an achievement.

Sadly, I am obliged to issue a Surgeon General warning…an Agent Orange reign will be hazardous to your health like drinking Diet Coke and eating fast food. Please turn off the news and just pretend we still have a democracy and that our 47th President is not a rapist, convicted felon and a certified carnival barker.

Dream big my fellow Americans and to survive please enjoy a glass of wine, a dry martini with blue cheese olives and/or consume gummies at will and only surround yourself with exemplary peeps.

Happy New Year🥳
