There is always so much happening behind the PULP scenes. Every day holds a unique and exciting mix of activities during the process of [...]
The Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia (my hometown) is absolutely the coolest place I’ve taken Maxton to yet! It is a huge two-level indoor children’s museum that is completely interactive for your child. Every thing is safe, fun, and touchable which allows you a place to let your child run free without constantly saying ‘No, [...]
While in NYC in May, I saw THE most incredible exhibit I have EVER seen. Alexander McQueen’s Savage Beauty Exhibit at the Met left me awestruck. It was almost more performance art than exhibit because of the intensity of the mood. The music, the lighting, but most importantly the talent. All of that coupled with [...]
Anytime I travel I always make a point to try something new! The last time I was in NYC, it was Russ & Daughters in the Lower East Side. Russ & Daughters is a famous ‘appetizing store’ ful of rich family history… but most importantly, it’s known to have the very best bagels & lox [...]
Kevin and I just had to stop by Morimoto while we were in NYC! We were engaged in the city and celebrated our engagement at Morimoto’s restaurant. It was quite possibly the best meal I’ve ever had. We didn’t go for broke this time, but instead had a couple of appetizers and some sake at [...]
There is this incredible movement going on, especially in Austin, Texas, where people are dining at food trucks… Yeah, it doesn’t sound super glamourous. And, it’s not. But, it’s certainly delicious!

My friends over at Oak Cliff Bicycle Company are doing some pretty rad things… They’re actually getting involved in the community and getting people to get out and ride! Aside from building, restoring, and selling bikes, they are also responsible for organizing and promoting several local group rides. Situated in the historical Bishop Arts District [...]
The restaurant, Smoke, certainly lives up to it’s name! With a heavy focus on barbecue and a commitment to local ingredients, Smoke gives Dallasites a chic alternative to your typical picnic table eateries. Last weekend we visited this restaurant, which is situated at the Belmont Hotel in Oak Cliff, and dined on brunch. It was fantastic! [...]
This past weekend we stopped for lunch at Garden Cafe, which is quickly becoming one of my favorite places in town. Tucked away in the historic Junius Heights district, it’s one of Dallas’ best kept secrets. Garden Cafe is only open for breakfast and lunch, but they deliver on both fronts. They grow their own [...]
This weekend we ventured out to the Urban Street Bazaar, which is a collection of independent artists with handmade products. I’ve been to a lot of street fairs, but this was by far the most well-edited that I have been to in a long time! Here are some of my favorite pop-up shops from the [...]
