There are very few activities Michael and I like more than going out for brunch. Even when we’re traveling, we usually make a huge deal out of the breakfast spread where we’re staying at. So one weekend we decided we…
Very recently I came upon Timeout NY’s list of 100 best New York restaurants and decided I had not gone to as many of these as I’d expected. So one holiday Friday (Fridays when I get off work at 1pm), I booked…
I was extremely pumped about doing this walk because: a) I’d never done a Gramercy walk before and b) We were doing the walk on my day off, so I was expecting a lot less stress due to the lack…
Deciding where to go on a foggy, then rainy Saturday afternoon was not easy. I had originally thought of doing the “Top of the Rock” for the FMS Photo a Day prompt “Looking Down”, but I decided it wouldn’t be…
