I really should book more than one tropical vacation every winter.  These photos are making me desperate to be warm again.

I spent this past weekend in New York City,  which is not tropical this time of year, but was an adventure, as always.  We had an amazing dinner Friday night at Lil Frankie's (including an Amber Tamblyn sighting!), followed by drinks and inappropriate dancing at a bar.  Also at that very same bar?  Crew members from Birdman, as well as the screenwriter, who just so happened to have brought his Oscar out with him.  No big deal.

Saturday we had bagels and mimosas at our Air BnB before checking out the New Museum.  Afterwards, we stopped into Paulaner for beers and snacks and then headed to a hot chocolate festival because why not?  We went back to the apartment to relax a bit and eat tons of cheese, prosciutto, and drink some wine before we went to drag queen bingo.  Yes, you read that correctly and it was incredible.  

After that, there was more pizza.  It is New York after all.  Sunday morning we were somehow hungry again, so we grabbed a great brunch at Northern Spy Food Co.  Their grapefruit ginger mimosa was delicious.  Then it was time to get on the road because the weather was turning.  I hate to see you leave, but I love to watch you go or something along those lines.  

Until next time, NYC.
