On Saturday, Lucas and I headed over to Pig Beach in Gowanus, Brooklyn for an awesome charity barbecue event in honor of Chef Carl Ruiz who recently and unexpectedly passed away.
Besides the event raising money for a good cause, there were big time Pit Masters and Food Network chefs serving delicious food. Continue reading Apartment In NYC Housing Projects Was Rented On Airbnb, Ice Skate On Runway At TWA Hotel, Budget- Friendly Trip To Maldives With Kids & More The Rehash!
As the holidays quickly approach, Kim and I are trying to figure out what to do during winter break.
I’ve been looking into some destinations to fly to but I’ve been striking out on finding a deal. I guess that’s the problem when I need to stick to the school schedule. At this point, we’re seriously considering a road trip. Lucas is excited with this idea!

When I fly, I usually order water from the inflight service. For all of these years, I thought I was going the healthy route to stay hydrated and boy was I wrong!
Fox News reports that “a 2019 Airline Water Study conducted by Hunter College NYC Food Policy Canter and DietDetective.com investigated the water quality on 23 different U.S. airlines. According to the results, many airlines allegedly provide passengers with unhealthy water.” Continue reading Not So Refreshing: Water On Most Flights Not Safe To Drink
I was recently approved for a new credit card. I’ve now had the card a couple of weeks and the minimum spend is almost completed. So, after a down year for earning miles and points through credit cards, I’m trying to end the year on positive note.
I decided to apply for another credit card and was instantly approved! I’m hoping to end 2019 by getting approved for at least one more credit card offering a solid sign up bonus.

It’s been a little while since we returned from our month-long trip around South Asia. With winter break a little over two months away, I’m currently on the hunt for a deal on a flight.
I’ve been checking some options using miles but I’ve been coming up empty handed. It seems highly unlikely that I’ll find a reward flight during the dates we’re off from work. All I can do is keep looking or hope for a good deal on a flight to purchase!

Over the weekend, we went to Pennsylvania primarily to use a Marriott credit card free night which was expiring in a little over a month.
With no clear use for it before expiration, Kim and I decided to use it for a short getaway for the kids. We checked out Dutch Wonderland, a small theme park which ended up being a lot of fun.

Since getting T-Mobile a few years back, we’ve found Google Maps to be an indispensable tool when we rent a car around the world.
While Google Maps isn’t perfect, we usually don’t have much issue with finding our intended destination.
Lonely Planet reports that one “Italian town doesn’t want you to use Google Maps.” Continue reading Don’t Use Google Maps In This Italian Town!
I hope that everyone had a nice Columbus Day Weekend.
Over the weekend, we spent a couple of nights at a Hilton property in Binghamton, NY. Super glamorous, don’t ya think? 🙂
This was our first time visiting Binghamton (we went to visit my niece who’s in school there). While there isn’t a ton to do in the area, we had a fun time being with a lot of family!

This past weekend we headed to the Bronx for the 2nd annual New York Pizza Festival.
Shops from around the United States and Italy set up in the streets close to the borough’s Little Italy. This is a great event where you don’t have to go very far to try pizza from all over!
I’m a a bit behind on my pizza posts but I’m hoping to catch up this week. Continue reading The Case Of The Missing Amex Offers, Brooklyn Pizza Scene Gets Even Better, Legoland NY’s Opening Date, TWA Hotel’s New Room- The Rehash!
When I go onto TripIt, the only upcoming plans we currently have are for a two-night stay in upstate NY. (Not exactly the most exciting trip although we do expect to have a good time!)
It doesn’t look like our next flights will be until winter break. That’s still a few months away and I have no idea yet where we might go, but I’m OK with that.
