saturday = productivity

today is about productivity
sure, its been great being busy all the time, traveling, being with friends
but my cozy room now feels like a bomb went off
and i'm nearly out of laundry
and i think its time to rearrange my furniture
so today is deep cleaning day
and of course, a power breakfast in bed would be the only way to start
baked eggs/tomato sauce/parmesan + tea

YOU GUYS....

I am such a slacker

I have no motivation, no inspiration, and no creativity these days
the real world is sucking the life out of me
and I am sorry

I am sorry for the lack of substance
I am sorry for the half-ass posts
I'm going to try to put some originality back into this
but bear with me while I try to get back to that place
crazy things are happening and who knows where they are leading me
but all is well and I promise to try harder

oh... and you're awesome, don't forget it

This summer is going to be the best one yet!
So many people in my life who make me feel like dancing, just like they do in this video!
I'm a lucky girl!
oh by the way, Best Coast is amazing!

Rainy Day Weekend

This week/weekend was one of the best I've had in a very long time. Mostly because of the company I kept, but also because of the dining I got to experience.

Wednesday: Had a friend over to make a kale and lentil stew. One friend turned into three friends and one bottle of wine turned into three bottles. Needless to say it was a memorable evening and a ton of fun.

Friday: Had a huge helping of amazing Indian food brought to my coworkers and I by one of our SoHo neighbors. Then I spent a lowkey night out at I Tre Merli Bistro for drinks and catching best friends.

Saturday: Had brunch at Cafe Gitane (Cucumber Mint Juice and Baked Eggs with Salmon, Potatoes, and Cream pictured above) which is one of my favorite places in the city and also the prototype for the restaurant I will own and run someday (shhh.... one can dream). The day also led to drinks and mini pbj sandwiches with coworkers at Botanica Bar after work.

Sunday: Worked all day, sipped fantastic coffee and prepared for my new job which I start TOMORROW!!!!!

Today I am incredibly grateful for:

- lowkey nights with good friends
- a city of unlimited restaurants
- keeping busy
- a fabulous new job

I'm Back in the Game!

Just like the old song says.....

It's autumn in New York
It's good to live again
