Everything looks so green around the neighborhood. It’s nice to see the new planted trees on Smith Street and the Greenmarket back. I like to eat something healthy before I go for a run so this week I decided to make homemade granola bars.
I went to Sahadi’s to get the nuts and dried fruit. Most [...]
I meant to post earlier this week, but it’s been busy with lots of changes. Change is hard, but at the same time, it feels amazing when we add an infusion of fresh flavors, colors and textures to our routines.

It’s been some time since I last ran so I’m slowly adding short runs to my morning walks. It feels great to see and notice the little things while running. There is so much visual information around us that running has become part of my art practice.
To honor Earth Day (April 22), I thought of [...]
