This past weekend was the beginning of the Jewish holiday of Passover, which in Hebrew is called Pesach. This spring holiday celebrates the liberation of Hebrews from slavery under the Pharaoh in Egypt. It will last March 28–April 4, and those who celebrate typically do so by avoiding all leavened bread or any product containing leaven. This represents the matzo created by Jews leaving Egypt who are said to have baked it on their backs while traveling. I love matzo any time of the year!
My family typically celebrates with members all over the East Coast. We traditionally get together two evenings for a lovely sedar, where we read the story of Passover, sing and eat. While we aren’t able to do so this year due to COVID, it was truly special to have my local family members get together for a swift sedar and delicious food made by my aunt. While us six grandchildren have grown out of finding the hidden Afikoman — a piece of Matzo typically hidden for the children to find after the sedar — we did enjoy each other’s company with good food, a lovely Passover story and quality time. I hope all who celebrate had a lovely and meaningful holiday and are enjoying a week of yummy matzo!

Jun 18, 2025W Costa Rica – Reserva Conchal Review
On Costa Rica’s north Pacific Coast, the tranquil, 150-room W Reserva Conchal is located in a 2,300-acre, government-protected wildlife preserve encapsulating much of the country’s incredible eco-diversity. Habitats include mangroves, estuaries and a tropical dry forest; these places are home to howler monkeys, coatis, iguanas, magpie-jays, and perhaps a jaguar... if you can tear yourself from your room, that is. My Spectacular Ocean Escape was exactly that, decked out in vibrant hues to mirror the expansive views of lush foliage and tropical flowers (and ocean beyond), while incorporating indigenous patterns of tico culture. Design details included a green leather headboard and free-form leather sofa, a blue and orange mural, and tropical hardwood furnishings and paneling. A surfboard was reimagined into a shelf for the coffee station in a clever nod to the region’s surfing culture. The massive bathroom’s oversized shower looks out onto the vegetation, and my balcony was the perfect nook to sip wine with a side of sunset.

Jun 18, 2025Immerse in a Blissful Haven of Wellness at AVA Resort Cancun and Its New Spa
It’s hard to imagine a mother’s trip with her adult daughter could get any better. We’d lounged by what’s likely the largest pool in Cancún — perhaps even on the Riviera Maya — sharing secrets and consummate laughter. We chose gluttonously from an array of 17 compelling bars and restaurants, each with its own theme, from Mexican to Italian to Japanese; practiced yoga atop a promontory hovering over the sea; and toasted sunsets with margaritas. But now, when pampering wellness calls, we spend the day in Mexico’s buzziest new spa: The SPA at AVA. Amazingly, while at the spa, things get yet more mother-daughter, bond-making sweet ... our trip’s absolute pièce de résistance.
