Anyways, let's talk about food for a second. Because nothing makes me happier than discovering new places to eat. First, I discovered the best bagel place EVER on 51st and 3rd. Then, my dad and I went to Shun Lee Palace for some authentic Chinese food. And it was fantastic. Then, Monday night I met up with these fabulous ladies for pate, oysters, steak tartare at Pastis. And yes the food was amazing, but hanging with these girls (and yes Chloe Rose counts) made the experience 100x better.
Matt came up on Friday and we had lunch at Tao. I had the seabass and I ate the whole thing with chopsticks, which made my little asian proud. =)
I ate in Hoboken a few times with Matt and his brother. I highly recommend Robongi for some sushi and surf and turf terriaki. And Benny Tudino's for some breakfast pizza on Sunday mornings.
We also accidentally stumbled across Magnolia Bakery, but the line was so long that we decided not to wait. Now I'm totally regretting it. I also went to Purl and and almost bought out the entire store. I got so inspired that I have decided to start sewing again. Yep, you heard right. Not like I don't have enough hobbies already. I'm sure you can guess how Matt took the news. He wasn't very happy to hear that a sewing machine and tons of fabric will soon invade more of our tiny 690 sq ft apartment.
Anyways, that's it. Back to reality now. And back to work.

Sewing is so much fun!! I'm sewing for soon to arrive bundle of joy. Just little things like blankets and stuff but you can get stuff so much cheaper!! My Singer Sewing machine is out because I worked on my Halloween costume this past weekend!
Dude, I am sooo hungry now! And that's too bad about the Magnolia Bakery, I am sure their stuff is delish. I made my daughters birthday cake with their buttercream recipe and it was incredible!
