In the winter I always crave seasonal root vegetables and hearty winter fruits, for one because the color is so vibrant against the dark grey winter skies, but also because it’s a chance to recharge and infuse my body with healthy antioxidants. Pomegranate and citrus are both some of my...
Autumn is my favorite season. I love to bundle up in warm woolen clothes and stroll through Prospect Park until my nose is red and cheeks are chilled. I love to take soak up the view of burnt siennas, crimsons and golden leaves as the crisp wind blows them all...
