Got a Sec?

Got a Sec?

We spent Saturday, June 29 at Caramoor's American Roots Festival and heard many incredible musicians perform.

We asked some of them what song best described their ...

Crafting Glamour

Crafting Glamour

Writing by Amy Baker Photography by Justin Negard In the mid-1990s, jewelry designer Cynthia Ryan created her first Lunette ring while enrolled in a beginner’s jewelry-making course at the Fashion Institute of New York. Her professor was amazed. “What exactly do you do during the day,” he asked. “Your design is a different approach than most, more architectural and reminiscent ...

Is Your Hound Stressed by Sound?

Is Your Hound Stressed by Sound?

It’s a stormy night, so you settle in for an evening movie. But where’s your dog? Are they cowering in the bathroom and trembling behind the toilet, pacing around the house or tearing up a pillow? While you may find their behavior unusual, these reactions to storms, and to daily household noises, can be common for dogs. Noise sensitivity occurs ...
A Day in Hudson

A Day in Hudson

Writing & Photography by Justin Negard There are several good “New York rivertown” comeback stories in our area. Places like Beacon, Tarrytown and Nyack have reinvented themselves against the backdrop of dying industries and forgotten commerce, weaving their past into something entirely different and fresh. Hudson is another one of those stories. A small city with a rich past, the ...

Nichole Wilder knows her flowers. From rose bouquets to peonies; shasta daisies to hydrangeas, her neighborhood flower shop, Wild Fig, lives and breathes the floral arts. Nichole is one of our local authorities on budding beauties, and spring is her specialty.  So as the earth begins to thaw, the birds chirp a little bit louder and the smell of new ...

Cooking & Cocktails

Mai Tai

Mai Tai

Photography by Justin Negard On a hot summer day, I find classic tropical drinks very refreshing, and a Mai Tai is one of my favorites. This version is only slightly different from the standard recipe as I’ve added pineapple liqueur to the mix.  To elevate the drink from “poolside bar” to “cocktail worth bragging about,” focus on your ingredients – ...
A Taste of Home

A Taste of Home

Writing by Gia Miller Photography by Justin Negard When sisters Joana and Meto Herrera took over Armonk’s Mariachi Mexico from their father in 2013, they had one main goal: it should look, taste and sound just like home. During the restaurant’s long-standing January break, they transformed the Tex-Mex favorite into something that reminded them of Tlaxcuapan, the small town in ...

Chili and Spice

Chili and Spice

Spicy. I wanted spicy. After a few months in Katonah, I still hadn’t found the hot singles scene that I was looking for. Sure, I tried the sewer ribbon-cutting in December – that was a big dump. I’ve sauntered the aisles of DeCiccos in a striking pair of Louboutins, but I always leave with dinner for one. I even bought ...
