NEW YORK OR BUST

I loved New York so much that I had to go back two months later! Only this time it was a girls trip and boy did we shop till we dropped. Every night we came home absolutely exhausted, so we would all put on our pj's and hop into bed with a box of pastries. (Oh did a forget to mention it was also a dessert trip) We found the best pastry shop in Little Italy, so we went there more than once. We also discovered Magnolia cupcakes, Serendipity and Starbucks (sometimes twice a day).

We worked Canal street up and down for knock off purses, Tiffany Jewelry, hats and Pashmina Scarves. Canal street worked us with lousy copies of DVD's and IPODs we purchased.

We ventured off to the Today show Friday morning and even met Matt Lauer and crew. We spent some quality time on the TV, some of us calm and others not so calm. I don't want to mention any names, but if you saw the Today show, you already know (Jen and Kristen).

My favorite part of the trip was eating Sunday brunch at the Boathouse in Central Park. The service, food and entire atmosphere was amazing. We devoured the bread basket, soaked up the excellent view of the autumn leaves, licked our fresh fruit and waffle plates clean and enjoyed the canoes passing by.
