I just hung up the phone with one of Maddie and London’s favorite people… Andrea Castiglione (aka “Mrs. C”) of Mendham Extended Day Program. We all met Mrs. C. back in February when Rex and I moved our investment banking practice into another firm and began commuting more regularly into New York City. As a mom, [...]

Just before the snowstorm on Saturday the 10th, Rex, London, Maddie and I headed over from the girls’ Mendham Patriots basketball clinic to the Mendham Township Public Libary. London’s second grade art class at Mendham Township Elementary School had their projects on display in late December and early January; unfortunately, it seemed as though we had just missed it, and that [...]
I know the discussions to shake up various school districts, including West Morris Regional and Mendham Township, have been going on for quite some time, but I’ve been unable to bring myself to either attend the meetings or write about the various combinations under consideration. The headline in this week’s Observer-Tribune reads: “District Shakeup Gains [...]
Our quiet Thanksgiving for four here in the Roxiticus Valley was the perfect remember of how much our family has to be thankful for, and particularly as the Christmas holidays approach, we are reminded of those who are less fortunate. Just before the Thanksgiving break, London and Maddie brought home a flier in their backpack [...]
On Saturday, December 6th, the Holly Trail through Mendham, New Jersey, celebrates the season with fun for the whole family.
