Cookie Republic

Trying to commit to a clean eating routine can be tough.  Recently I found a company that has a product that will sustain energy and disguises healthy ingredients such as whole grains, fiber, 
and protein in a delicious healthy cookie.  Cookie Republic was born right here in White Plains, NY created by a bunch of NY Firefighters that were looking for something that could keep them going “when they needed it most”.  The cookies come in chocolate brownie, chocolate chip and peanut butter flavors and one is better than the next!  We are all addicted and I cannot keep them in my house.  The best part is that Cookie Republic gives back too.  They are committed to raise awareness and contribute to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation and make substantial contributions to the NY Homeless Shelters.  For more information or to order your cookies, click HERE.

Book Club Monday

This week’s Book Club Monday choice is another hit from best selling author, Kevin Kwan, titled Rich People Problems.  The story goes like this:

When Nicholas Young hears that his grandmother, Su Yi, is on her deathbed, he rushes to be by her bedside—but he’s not alone. The entire Shang-Young clan has convened from all corners of the globe to stake claim on their matriarch’s massive fortune. With each family member vying to inherit Tyersall Park—a trophy estate on 64 prime acres in the heart of Singapore—Nicholas’s childhood home turns into a hotbed of speculation and sabotage. As her relatives fight over heirlooms, Astrid Leong is at the center of her own storm, desperately in love with her old sweetheart Charlie Wu, but tormented by her ex-husband—a man hell bent on destroying Astrid’s reputation and relationship. Meanwhile Kitty Pong, married to China’s second richest man, billionaire Jack Bing, still feels second best next to her new step-daughter, famous fashionista Colette Bing. A sweeping novel that takes us from the elegantly appointed mansions of Manila to the secluded private islands in the Sulu Sea, from a kidnapping at Hong Kong’s most elite private school to a surprise marriage proposal at an Indian palace, caught on camera by the telephoto lenses of paparazzi, Kevin Kwan’s hilarious, gloriously wicked new novel reveals the long-buried secrets of Asia’s most privileged families and their rich people problems. – Amazon.com

Coho USA

We LOVE all racquet sports around here.  My girls are always looking for cute tennis and squash outfits.  They wear them all year round not just the summer months.  Recently I came across the cutest company Coho USA.  I have been ordering from them and now they are Sponsors of the blog…WOO HOO.  You have to see their clothes.  The company was started out of the founders’ love of tennis and they incorporate old school classic design with contemporary fabrics.  And, they really got it right.  The outfits are so cute and great for both on and off the courts.  They actually make me yearn for my favorite old wooden racquet days.  For more information or to order, click HERE

Chilled Mint Pea Soup

Over the long weekend, I had a lovely lunch with good friends at their club.  They recommended that I try one of their favorite things on the menu, Chilled Pea Soup.  OMG!!  It was AMAZING and healthy too!!  I decided to recreate it on my own.  This is the closest version that I could find.  You have to try it.  Bon Appetit!!

Adapted from Cook For Your Life




1 tablespoon butter

4 scallions, white and pale green parts only, sliced

  • 2 sprigs mint, washed
  • 2 pounds fresh peas, shelled, or frozen organic peas
  • 6 cups good quality unsalted chicken stock
  • ½ cup of cream or greek yogurt (optional)
  • 2 sprigs mint, leaves stripped and chopped, for garnish
1. In a heavy bottomed pot (I used my Le Creuset), melt the butter over medium-low heat. When it has melted and stopped foaming, add the chopped scallions. Sauté until they have softened.
2. Add the whole mint sprigs and sauté for a couple of minutes then add the peas and salt to taste. Add the stock and cook until the peas are just soft and bright green, this will go fast for frozen peas. Remove the mint sprigs and blend until the soup is completely smooth. Check for seasoning and add cream or yogurt, if using.
3. Let the soup chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Serve cold with chopped mint.
