May Recap
I’ve heard about the American chain of Asian supermarkets — called H Mart, but had never visited one before. I knew there was one in Edison, New Jersey, and was surprised to find that there was one in Paramus as well. So for my May Recap, my boyfriend and I decided to visit H Mart Paramus.

April Recap
I had vacation time this April, I saw the opening season for U-Pick Tulips at the Holland Ridge Farm, right here in New Jersey! They offered fields of self-pick tulips and I knew that I had to visit for my April highlight. This seemed like the perfect opportunity to see thousands of tulips without flying to another country to enjoy them.

After browsing the current exhibits, I was excited to visit to see their multiple galleries of artwork, sculptures, and interactive exhibits.
