Today is National Pink Shirt Day (last Wednesday of February). A national movement to fight bullying, it started with two high school students in Canada buying 75 pink shirts and encouraging their classmates to wear them in solidarity with a new student at their school who was bullied for wearing a pink shirt. So we encourage everyone to wear pink shirts today as a stand against bullying, promoting kindness and inclusivity, and we give you our boy who looks very pretty in pink!

Billions Season 2 Dining Guide

My husband and I are crazy foodies. He loves to cook (we are talking about a man who bakes bread, brews beer and makes pancetta here!) and we both love to eat. Thus, NYC dining scene, from its “special occasion” restaurants to yummy hole-in-the-walls to city institutions to cozy neighborhood joints, making memorable appearances in Billions makes us smile big!
