My family loves the great outdoors and one of my fondest memories and activities that we do together come fall is quail hunting..If ever given the opportunity to go- you must. It's exhilarating. Quailâs move in small coveyâs and hide low in brambles in thicket. The bird dogs are muscular English Pointers, English Setters, and English Cocker Spaniels that can smell the birds and are trained to lift their tail to the heavens in a âpointâ when they have identified a group. On the command, they pursue the birds rapidly causing them to fly in the air with grace giving you a split second to try and hit your target.

Family quilts detailing family members and important events in your familial history would be awesome family heirlooms to have, keep, & pass down.

My mom is super Italian-American so we do the feast of the seven fishes every year on Christmas Eve. Growing up it was always my mom and grandma cooking but the past few years my siblings and I do most of the cooking and my mom and grandma sort of knowingly oversee. It's nice to feel we're picking up the responsibility and continuing the traditions. A lot of traditions are lame and archaic and stupid, but eating linguine with clams and mussels instead of ham and turkey seems like a good one to keep up.

Recently, Iâve been listening to or watching Joan Rivers standup and red carpet demolitions. She is so damn funny. I love her shockingly harsh comedic approach and roasting. My brain seems to be wired similarly to hers; mostly in her blatant honesty. She used to really speak her mind on red carpet critiquesâŚToday everyone treads around on eggshells, itâs all so celebratory, confirming, and inclusive when it comes to fashion critiques. She was so real and hysterical as a commentator and told it like it is. I donât think it will ever be the same again and hasnât been since she died. I recently found a reality show she did with her daughter Melissa, called âJoan & Melissa: Joan Knows Bestâ from 2005 on the E network, and it's just phenomenal.

Working in my field I just love a funky sock. I get my socks from one man, and one man onlyâŚThat man is Sock Man on St. Marks. Itâs a classic East Village staple - When you get there, donât rush, comb the entirety of their selection and keep an open mind. In my early years in New York as an intern and stylist assistant I always picked up socks for my bosses there, and then when I had days off I would go and get socks for myself. I never leave without a minimum of 10 new pairs of socks and at least a 5 minute conversation with owner Marty, who is a cool, village grunge who loves Japanese socks.

My grandfather, who is my hero, has one of the firmest handshakes in a powerful but not squeezing way. I love handshakes.. I hug my friends but otherwise when I meet someone I like to shake.. I feel like it's such a great way to gage someone basically immediately - I really admire people who look you in the eyes and shake your hand with confidence. The way you shake hands is very telling of what type of person you are, deadfish shakes really scare me.
