Eight days of running is no joke. 5 miles on day 8 and I’m beat, I’m dead tired. The weather isn’t helping, but that’s the point, getting out there and running in the winter. It’s not the dead of winter yet, so I shouldn’t complain, but it’s damn cold. 40 […]
Jumpers or sweaters is the focal point of fashion this winter. T-shirts and button ups were the main piece of clothing in the summer and even the fall, but because of the weather, sweaters are in. Everyone needs a coat, but that sweater is going to be the most worn […]
At DG, we love clocks, watches, and anything that tells time. We use our phones as alarm clocks, but we also have an actual clock. Clocks are great to have for a variety of reasons, they look good on your nightstand/mantel, they tell time, and they keep you away from […]
It’s winter, it’s cold and when can’t you use another jacket. When I first came to NYC from California I binge shopped on wool peacoats. That was a great idea and they worked with business attire, but during the harsh winter months with freezing rain, sleet, snow, and wind they […]
#3for31 has been an amazing way to kickstart my day or end it on a high note. December is a month of glorious food, gifts, and cold temperatures, not prime training months. Today was the end of day 7, nearly 25% through and my legs haven’t become tired yet. To […]
I went to Asia for food, I didn’t say booze. In terms of booze, I’m a beer drinker first, and knew not to expect much beer wise in Asia. Hitachino Brewery surprised me in Japan and as my stay was winding down in Taipei, I checked out a brewpub near […]
Make no mistake, Dim Sum is a sport. It’s a full contact, intense, competitive sport, and only those that have mastered the sport enjoy it. If you’ve ever had Dim Sum at P.F. Chang’s or a tourist spot, then that stuff sucks and is not representative of Dim Sum. Real […]
Taiwan is known for their night markets that specialize in street food. Most of their night markets are located in Taipei, but one in the cuts is one of the most popular, Keelung. Keelung is a port city in the north of Taiwan about 30 minutes by car from Taipei. […]
Temples! Temples in Asia are everywhere, think of the Churches in Rome. One of the most popular sights to see in Taipei is the Mengjia Longshan Temple or Lungshan Temple. This is actually #4 on TripAdvisor. And who the fuck reads TripAdvisor… quite a few people believe it or not. […]
I came to Asia for food and pretty much food only. That is unless you have a tour guide. To preface, I’m so very thankful that I had a tour guide, Pamelia Lee who has written countless books on Singapore and worked as a board member of Singapore Tourism for […]
Thanksgiving kicked off the holiday shopping season and the sales are only getting bigger and better. For those looking for some of the best deals, the yearly sales, the sample sales of the year, December and specifically this month is the time for sales by J.Crew, Linder, Sanyo, and Hugo […]
Hot Pot is Chinese, Shabu Shabu is Japanese, same shit, right? I’m probably making a sin in Asian cuisine, but they IS the same to me. I’m no Chinese food expert or even Taiwanese, but when I was in Taiwan, there were a ton of Hot Pot places and I […]
