Newsletter: Happy Friday Letter//Giveaway Winner//Updates

A quick newsletter to end the week!

Hi Everyone!

I hope that you all had a great week and are looking forward to the weekend! It’s bee a pretty rainy week in Astoria, Queens but we’re hoping for some sunshine over the weekend with the family!

Regardless, we’ve been spending more and more time outside and are falling back in love with NYC all over again (as we tend to do every Spring).

May is also the month of both my wife Sami and our daughter Eleanor’s birthdays (in addition to Mother’s Day), so it’s always pretty packed with family and parties all sorts of good things like that.

The Spring time has always been special for both Sami and I, coming out of the cold and darker city winters. These days, especially with Eleanor in our lives, the Spring time brings those special feelings but even more so.

Eleanor turned 4 this year and it feels amazing how far we’ve come. The first couple of years of parenthood weren’t the easiest for Sami and I. I won’t go too far into that but I will say that this past year has been full of such a wonderful changes with our family. Seeing our daughter grow up and become this little person has been truly remarkable and so very fullfilling.

Onto business! I have several new recipes coming to substack next week that are geared towards weeknight eats and weekday meal prep. That said, I’d love to hear if there is anything you’d be interested in me developing or making if you want to leave a comment on this post.

Thank you all for being a part of this page’s journey! I really am giving this my all and promise to do my best to make these recipes as informative, through and practical as possible.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend!

Cheers,
Joey

An old photo of my Mother and I that I found for Mother’s Day. I’m pretty sure that she was single at this point and it was just us. Thick as thieves!
