Splash Down at the New Community Park Pool!

May 26, 2012 By R Birkel

Community Park Pool Opening

The crowd waited patiently after 30 minutes of thanks to all those who made the new Community Park Pool possible. Then they opened the flood gates. It has officially opened! The kids had a blast sliding down the brand new water slide, and jumping off the diving boards, which are now on the opposite side. Jugglers […]

The Restaurant Titans

May 8, 2012 By R Birkel

Seared Tuna

After re-reading a New Jersey Monthly article from last year, I once again felt fortunate knowing three of the Top 25 restaurants in the state are elements (third year in a row), Eno Terra (second year in a row), and The Peacock Inn Restaurant (first time). No other Princeton restaurants have received this honor, at least since 2007. […]

Men's and Women's Fashion in Princeton

March 29, 2012 By R Birkel

Ralph Lauren on Nassau Street in Princeton

The red carpet season, and fashion weeks have come and gone. These events have made me think about fashion in Princeton. You don’t typically see women strolling around the Princeton Shopping Center wearing Louboutin shoes and Christian Lacroix dresses, nor do you see men GQ’d out in slim cut Simon Spurr three-piece suits sipping espresso at Small World […]

Pi Day Princeton and Geek Freak Weekend 2012

March 7, 2012 By R Birkel

3.14159265358979… Okay, I admit, I’m not great at reciting Pi, but on March 14, 2012, you’ll get to hear some of the best thanks to Mimi Omiecinski and Joy Chen. These two powerhouses are the organizers of Pi Day Princeton/Geek Freak Weekend for the third year now. Albert Einstein’s birthday is on 3/14 (3.14), a.k.a. Pi […]

Princeton on the Cheap

January 10, 2012 By R Birkel

Halo Pub

Princeton is generally known to be expensive, with its upscale shops, fine dining, and four-star hotels. However, there are a number of services and events free of charge, and great deals to be found. You just have to look for them. I’ve decided to compile a list of things to do that won’t cost you […]

A Tale of Two Princetons

January 4, 2012 By R Birkel

The Princeton Shopping Center in Princeton, NJ

Before moving to Princeton, I didn’t know about the two separate municipalities. The township surrounds the borough like a donut. While they share the schools, library, and recreation department, there are  services that are separate, and the lifestyles are different. Princeton Borough has a vibrant downtown stocked with shops, restaurants, businesses, theaters, churches, hotels, the […]

Autumn in Princeton

October 28, 2011 By R Birkel

Fall Foliage

Autumn is my favorite season. I told a friend that, and she was surprised, and replied that fall was always a time of decay for her. I never thought of it that way. It’s a time of warm colors for me, as well as comfort foods, fun events, and family. And I find autumn in […]

Rediscovering the Princeton Shopping Center

September 23, 2011 By R Birkel

Last Saturday the Princeton Shopping Center celebrated ‘Pirates Day’. They had a fun treasure hunt starting the beginning of the month, leading up to the big day. I decided to step up to the challenge the day before the deadline. There were treasure maps available at the 17 participating shops with clues to each. Every […]
