I took a little hiatus from doing event recaps but now since the weather is getting a little warmer and Jersey City weekends are becoming busier and busier I was happy to cover two awesome events last night. Now, I apologize for the quality of photos as I used my iPhone to take pictures because […]

The Pop Culture Conversation – March Edition
First things first… We really can’t start this discussion without talking about Kim Kardashian’s naked selfie. It caused quite the hubbub. Everyone from Piers Morgan, to P!nk, to Chloe Grace Moretz to Kanye’s ex Amber Rose weighed in on whether Kim K was a slut, a Feminist, or a fame whore. Honestly, I’ve seen less […]
Office of Innovation Jersey City
Whenever someone emails me with a small business related question I forward it on to The Office of Innovation. What is The Office of Innovation you ask? “Jersey City was one of 12 U.S. cities selected in 2014 to participate in Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Innovation Teams program. Innovation teams (i-teams) function as in-house innovation consultants, moving […]
Mom
A special Stylish Peep post featuring my mom. The following post has nothing to do with Jersey City, but everything to do with me Lynn aka Chicpea. Fashion has always been a huge part of my life and if you ask me who my biggest fashion inspiration is, I will tell you it’s my mother […]
70 Columbus, Jersey City’s Hottest New Rental!
Over the summer, I was invited to a sneak peek at the new 70 Columbus building while it was still under construction. Even then I was so impressed with the building’s contemporary design and amazing views. The tower’s contemporary design, including dramatic window-bay columns that project from the building, is visually striking from all angles […]

DRS Medical Associates
This post is a game changer for me. You know how many times I’ve asked for recommendations for a local general practitioner?! Every time I went to visit a new one, my experience has been not the best (I will leave the negative reviews to Yelp). I would resort to going back to Manhattan to […]
ChicpeaTV: Singing with Matty D
I met Matty D. a little over a year ago and since then we’ve become buddies. I interviewed him for a post and he even performed at my kid’s three year old birthday party! He’s awesome. For this episode we got together to sing. I am not much of a singer…not even good enough to sing […]
About Designs
I love flowers. Ok, I know, who doesn’t right?! I really think having fresh flowers and plants in the home makes a huge difference in the ambiance! That being said, I wasn’t always like that. Five years ago when it came down to planning the flower arrangements for my wedding I got so overwhelmed by […]
Base Body Spa
As a busy working mom, taking time for myself is essential. Whenever I am feeling a little stressed out and in need to chill out I always go to Base for a massage. Base is not just a full service gym they also have a wonderful spa! The best part is their massages (other than […]
The Pop Culture Conversation- February Edition
The Pop Culture Conversation – February Edition First things first. Beyonce’s Super Bowl performance stirred up controversy because her back-up dancers were dressed in homage to the Black Panthers. Our country takes football and its commercials very seriously, so naturally most Americans (especially Rudy Guiliani) did not take this political reference in the middle of […]

Grove Street Bicycles
We’ve been going to Grove Street Bicycles every since we moved to Jersey City about 8 years ago. My husband and I love riding our bikes and would go into the shop to buy accessories, get our bikes fixed, put air in our tires… you name it they do it. I always had a really […]
