Paris With Eyes Wide Open

April 13, 2017 by Amy Langrehr

Lia is my best friend. We met in middle school. She was from Perry Hall, I was a country kid from Kingsville. Beginning in 7th grade, we knew each other, but not well. Then, the summer before ninth grade, we became real friends, but I don’t really remember how. I remember letters were written, she …

Baltimore Staycation, Four Seasons Style . . .

January 26, 2017 by Amy Langrehr

I’m a homebody. Kind of proud of it. I’ve created a home that I love. And, due in part to my increasingly social world, I find real joy in the art of staying in.

Lebanese Taverna shines in Harbor East

November 3, 2016 by Amy Langrehr

I’m not exactly sure why, but I had never been to Lebanese Taverna until a few weeks ago. Maybe because it’s technically a chain (albeit a small one.) That said, I’m lightening up a bit on that mindset, as many restaurants are expanding on good concepts, a category Lebanese Taverna definitely falls into. Friends have …

October 19, 2016 by Amy Langrehr

I am lucky enough to have some really cool friends who do really cool things. One such person is Carlee Pipitone, owner of Tenth Harvest, a local wine and spirits importer and distributor. I’m a nerd when it comes to spirits. I’m no expert my any means, but I do like when I find a …

I had the chance today to visit Josh and PJ Sullivan at their soon-to-be-open beer bar, Wet City in Mt. Vernon.
