Canal Street and a Long Lost Cousin
My 2nd cousin, Teresa, came down from her home upstate to visit the city. We haven’t seen each other in about 15 years (or so. we aren’t actually sure). We met at Bryant Park which has a really awesome Christmas market and an ice skating rink. It really wasn’t that crowded either. The shops are…
Read MoreHoliday Photo Card Event @ Etsy
Because my friend N is such a peach, she invited me to a little holiday party at Etsy. They set up 3 backdrops for funny holiday card photos. N and I had an absolute blast posing for the photo booth pics. This was the New Years Eve photo booth. There was a guy on the…
Read MoreDownsizing Christmas
Before we moved from Houston to Manhattan, I was forced to downsize my 6 Christmas decoration boxes down to 3. It wasn’t easy. But now that we are here I’m glad I parted with the stuff I found in the 80% off aisle at Hobby Lobby. I was only able to display 1/4 of what…

Read MoreDay of Gluttony aka Thanksgiving
We’ve been going nonstop since we moved in. Thanksgiving weekend was no exception. Husband was obsessed with going to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. I was not interested. I did, however, agree to go to see the balloons be blown up. Which solidified my decision not to attend the parade. It was bonkers. People and…
Read MoreTourist for 2 Days
Since our entire time in NYC has been spent unpacking and schlepping to IKEA, we haven’t been able to do much in the way of exploring. My inlaws came to visit for 2 days and we totally took advantage. The first day they were here we decided to get dinner and a show. When they…

Read MoreGeneral Mayhem
We are almost done unpacking. It goes a lot faster in a smaller space. However, it is much more challenging. Its like playing tetris with boxes. I should have finished product pics for you by tomorrow. Especially since we have internet now. **happy dance** The day after we took possession of the apt we went…
