A northern New York staple has come to Tampa, the “beef on weck” sandwich; the area is better with the sloppy, messy and oh so delicious treat. The new venue is Honey’s on North Dale Mabry Highway and it is very welcome.
I was born, raised and went to school in New England, mostly in north-eastern Massachusetts and the New York City area, before moving to the much warmer (more. . .)

Hey everybody! First off, sorry I have been gone so long! Things got super busy around here, and then I got sick, but let’s not talk about that–the important thing is that I’m back! :) To celebrate, I thought I’d start by making themed calendars, starting with this Supernatural one.

Australia | 1996 | Directed by Megan Simpson Huberman
Logline: A couple struggling to make a relationship work wake up one morning to find each trapped in the other’s body and the struggle to relate to friends and work becomes a comedic nightmare.
