NYC Lately

We have been busy in the city lately. I want to write down and remember what we've been up to, so this is a little bit of a catch-up.

Enjoying lots of lazy weekend picnics in Central Park. I mean, that face? She is always smiling. And she makes a great pillow, too.

 A jalapeño margarita at Jimmy's Pickles. So. good.

An easy salad I made for lunches one week with colorful peppers, tomatoes, quinoa, cucumbers, black beans and avocado.

A book chat/signing with Hoda Kotb and Jennifer Weiner! I am a total nerd and am okay with that. Jennifer Weiner's new book, All Fall Down, is the perfect summer read. And, Hoda? She is my new bestie. :)

 Wine with our friends Lindsey and Misha

 Manhattanhenge

Lovely dinner at Tao and visit with sweet Katie and Drew!

{Um, that is a giant fortune cookie filled with white and dark chocolate. And it was as good as it looks.}

 

I wrapped up working at Kate Spade. It was a fun experience, but I'm very excited to be getting back to the classroom next month!

 We went to our first Summerstage in Central Park to see Counting Crows {and Toad the Wet Sprocket!} and loved, loved, loved it. It was one of those nights where we looked around and at each other and thought about how special it is that we live here.

 I have been tiring this little muffin out on our nightly walks in the park. She's so darn cute.

We saw Sara Bareilles on Sunday and she put on an amazing concert.

 

I'm not usually one for concert souvenirs, but I love my new BRAVE shirt!

 



This blurry picture is as good as we could get. We had a blast!
