I go to the beach more than I normally would in the month of May, but I’ve never had so much time on my hands, and have been so depressed as well.

So good. It’s by Feast Your Eyes Catering, they have pivoted during this time and created delicious meals for Take Out or Delivery. Saturday Mike and I headed to the beach for a breeze. I stopped by Atlantic City to grab some shots for my column in CBSPhilly. Check them out here.
