THE IPHONE. Super-fancy underpants. The triple-chocolate-orgasm-fudge-explosion ice cream that’s forever leering at us from inside its frost-bitten glass case. What do they have in common? All three rank on our list of must-have splurges. But what about...

ALL THE THINGS we love about the holidays - the expensive bottles of wine, the multi-course meals, the fancy soirées that end with breakfast - are also the things that leave us bleary-eyed, pudgy, and hating ourselves come the season's proverbial...

Greg Pic, DJ/producer Last year I got: an incredible number of Starbucks gift cards! I’m seriously addicted to the iced mochas — can’t start my day without one. This year I want: I hate to be a “band geek,” but since I spend more time in my studio than...

NEW ENGLAND’S culinary tradition may be America’s oldest, but it’s not often considered its most delicious. After all, our local cuisine originally sprang from the British Isles, land of the boiled potato and overdone roast, and the Pilgrims, whose religious...

YOU ENTRUST your dinner to them, so doesn’t it make sense to ask your favorite local chefs which up-and-coming cooks they think are talented? We checked in with restaurant vets Jody Adams, Robert Fathman, Marc Orfaly, Bill Poirier, and Jeremy Sewall about...

ASK US WHERE we shop and it’s a simple answer: Newbury Street, Copley Place, and, when time allows, the Natick Collection. But when we pose the same question to 10 local chefs, most wax enthusiastic on the merits of various meat distributors, organic...

WE’RE GLAD that one of the inherent qualities of a trend is its brevity, because if we’d had to endure a lifetime’s worth of leggings, scrunchies, and New Kids on the Block, we’re not sure we’d still be around to talk about it. In the last 10 years, what...

… in 1997 “Remember when Princess Diana sparked the rage for colonic irrigation? (It makes me feel so energized.’) That development sent bicoastal trendsetters bot-toms up. Now it’s time for deep breathing. An oxygen hit is the pick-me-up of the moment...

THERE ARE surely some things about college you miss: the random hook-ups, the endless parties, the complete lack of responsibility, and, of course, the excess drinking. But that dining hall serving half-congealed mystery meats and triple-fried everything...
