Guess who had the #1 cannoli in NYC according to City Guide? Carlo’s Bakery, Home of the Cake Boss, and available right here in town, of course! It’s no wonder why. Every time my kids beg to go in for cupcakes, I walk out with a dozen fresh cannolis. That flaky pastry…the heavenly ricotta cheese filling It really is a taste of heaven! I might have to go grab one right now!

She now works from home as a freelance graphic designer and a chauffeur to her 3 busy kids. "Working on TipsFromTown has been a wonderful outlet for me. It renewed my love of publishing where I can design colorful, enticing pages online and allows me to share the things I love about being a mom." Heather grew up in Shaker Heights, Ohio, a place that still is near and dear to her. " After living in Brooklyn for 18 years and studying Graphic Design at Pratt Institute, she now lives in the Jersey burbs. "I love living so close to NYC, but in my heart, I'm an Ohio girl."
