Happy Friday and cheers to the weekend. This was a relaxing post Christmas week. However as I attend my last few theatre shows this week has been about enjoying rest on all levels. So as we switch New Year gears, let’s take a moment to take these moments in.
Christmas Friday Recap
As we celebrated Christmas, we kept it low key. From taking the time to get up and enjoy one another. We also made sure to take naps, enjoy good food, and wonderful cocktails. In addition to watching the kids enjoy their morning, we also traveled to Lancaster PA to see my side of my family. We enjoyed seeing everyone open gifts, eat more food, as well as see my Grandparents. I don’t always get to see them. So when I can I do cherish it. I hope that your Christmas was full of joy.
Friends who Dine Together
My good friend, Elle who I feature often on this blog took a few of us to dinner to celebrate the season. So we enjoyed dining at Melograno. It’s a BYOB Italian Restaurant that is absolutely amazing. From the Lobster Spaghetti and the appetizers this is a place to add to your list. The desserts are outstanding. Service was amazing as well. Our waiter was hands down great to us. He was attentive in every way. A special thank you to Elle who I love and admire both offline and online.
Blue Man Group Friday Recap
The Blue Man Group is here until December 31st. The show is joyful. From the music to the colorful art you are going to want to not miss it. If you have ever heard of the iconic show, being that it’s this close, is where you want to be. Make sure you read the blog, and get your tickets. Thanks to the Kimmel Cultural Center and Bryan Butter Media Relations for having us.
Conversations with Toi Friday Podcast Drop
It’s Friday so that means that a new episode of the podcast it out. We talk about the New Year, vision boards, and more. Today’s guest is Jade McLeod who plays Jo in Jagged Little Pill coming to the Kimmel Cultural Center January 3rd-January 15th. Jagged Little Pill is a jukebox musical featuring Alanis Morissette’s groundbreaking hits. It interweaves the songs with the pain of the fictional Healy family and ultimately tells their story of healing and empowerment.
The Healys appear to be an ideal suburban family – but when the cracks beneath them begin to surface, they must choose between maintaining the status quo, or face the jarring truth about themselves, their community, and the world around them.Get your tickets now! Jagged Little Pill is here from January 3rd-15th.
Blogs you May Have Missed
We are going to hit 1 million views for the year for the second time in a row. I am beyond blessed and super excited. With that being said, you my supporters have made this year a breeze. Constantly reading the blogs and engaging in the content has been super helpful. So here is what I missed:
