nyc.

Some favorite moments from another great trip to the city...
Breakfast with Emily and Haylie at the Grey Dog..

Emily and I helped out at WovenPlay. We dressed some ballerina dolls and delivered them to their home at the boutique.

We went to the Moma on Friday to see the Tim Burton exhibit. 2 other favorites I saw...


A fantastic brunch at Farm in Flatbush. Pictured are the most amazing Biscuits and Gravy.


Emily took me to crazy Coney Island on Saturday...loved its quirky, creepy, scariness. We went to the $1 museum that hilighted some of its history and walked on the boardway. I kept hoping a Zoltar machine would pop up out of nowhere and start playing creey music...





Had a lovely dessert at Chickalicious, a small dessert bar run by the cutest lady, Chika. Her husband seats you at the bar, and you sit mesmerized watching her perfectly place lemon poppyseed cookies or scoop a beautiful dallop of grapefruit sorbet. A lovely experience...


Spent another great night at the PDT. Loved playing Donkey Kong while waiting for our table. Had the most amazing hotdog with cream cheese, scallions, and everything bagel topping sprinked all over...yummmm.



A lovely dinner at Penelope's with Liz, Paige, Emily, and Haylie. I love how when we're all together it feels like we were never apart.

Finally got to be on the today show! We stood behind Al for the weather, I shook Matt's hand, and got a picture with Meredith! Loved every minute..we went on Monday and Tuesday morning!

NO way! I definitely think the next time I go to New York I should go with you. I love reading about all the fabulous places you went to. Maybe I will walk in your foot steps next time. All the food sounded so tasty! And the Today Show FUN!

First, I love your Zoltar machine reference! (One of my favorites growing up--the scene with the transformer chrysler building doll kills me every time) :)

Secondly, I generally love your blog. I just remembered I wanted to check it out and voila--it's fabulous, Abby! It has an Etsy feel to it, in the "happy charming nostalgic findings" way. Strong work! :)
