As my Norwegian friend Christian says, “‘Kos’ is like giving a hug.” It’s indescribable what sipping a warm cup of cocoa in Norway’s mountainside can do for the soul. I make an arduous attempt in @voguemagazine. vogue.com/article/searching-…

I take my job seriously. Especially when @CNTraveler asks me to write about the best restaurants in Miami. Which means I ate at practically every restaurant in the 305. After all, I'm a serious journalist. cntraveler.com/gallery/best-…

When I was pregnant, my OB forbade me to ride a bicycle, and now a pregnant Rhaenyra is saying she can travel from Dragonstone to King's Landing on dragonback??? Queen status. #HouseOfTheDragon

UPDATE: There is no active shooter at Princeton High School, Superintendent Tom Burton said. Burton said this appears to be part of a national hoax. There are no victims and the school has closed for the day. bit.ly/3RcLnXI

I just taught my 5-year-old daughter the definition of “portmanteau.” Her response? “Then what’s ‘portWOMANteau’?” #feminist #phenomenal #femaleempowerment
Did you know that Florida is home to more than one fountain of youth? We’re not talking about the mythical spring discovered by Ponce De Leon, but these properties in the Sunshine State boast treatments just as magical. 📷 @mbkoeth 📝 @nilado flamingomag.com/2022/04/26/e…

Monique Richter is a unicorn. Or, maybe the more accurate term is workhorse. In the male-dominated maritime industry, Richter stands out on the scaffolding. Kickstart Women’s History Month by making waves in the boating world. 📷 @mbkoeth 📝 @nilado flamingomag.com/2020/03/09/a…

Fernando Wong’s work proves that sometimes, it is what’s on the outside that counts. Flamingo sat down with the Panamian designer to talk sabal palms, humble roots and bringing peoples’ vision to life. 📷 Carmel Brantley | Nick Sargent 📝 @nilado flamingomag.com/2021/12/13/h…
Bimini, the closest island in the Bahamas to Florida, is only 50 miles from Miami. Some days, it feels no more than a few steps from our own backyard. 📷 Gremly Media 📝 @nilado flamingomag.com/2018/05/28/b…

Thank youuuu, Cheryl! 💖
My 5-year-old wrote herself a Valentine’s Day card. How’s that for some self-love? 🥰🥰

It’s funny that Ben Roethlisberger sexual assault allegations were swept under the rug. Even Stormy Daniels spoke on how creep he was. The man said he was addicted to porn and at least 3 women came out about his behavior. He better never see HOF! NFL cover for who they want tho

Everything you said makes perfect sense! Bibs just seem like a waste of paper for an 8-person race, but I’m sure there’s a legit reason why they’re relevant. I’ll investigate. … And McLaughlin! And Muhammad! 🔥
Replying to @nilado
Good question — In big races, yes, but in an 8 person race not sure what they’re really doing…. But that last race (women’s 400m hurdle) was absolute 🔥

Genuinely want to know your opinion: Are racing bibs still necessary for track athletes? #Olympics

Harrison Ford. Reminds me of my dad with the long delivery, and you’re never really sure where he’s going, but he continues despite what the vibes of the room are telling him. But hotter.

Daniel Dae Kim on House bill condemning anti-Asian sentiment: "I was disheartened to find that for a bill that required no money or resources, just a simple condemnation of acts of hate ...164 members of Congress—all Republican—voted against it." abcn.ws/3qWQkGT
