The Traditional NYC Birthday Trip

These are some of my favorite photos ----- such a dreamy look you can only find in film. Thanks, little Diana! This Friday, my mother and I are going on a little birthday excursion to New York --- something we tend to do for birthdays in recent years. You'll hear no complaints from me! New York has my heart!

I decided I didn't want to go about it "day trip style" (run around packing in as much as possible until you're dead on your feet, etc.), so we're going to be super relaxed about it. I'm thinking we're going to see the Faking It exhibit at The Met. Definitely on the agenda is getting a legendary cookie from Levain. Those things are huge, so happy birthday to me! And I randomly really, really love those honey roasted cashews from street carts, so that's definitely happening too. Other than that, we're doing some shopping (yay), eating lots of treats, and just being spontaneous.

I can't wait to have a relaxing birthday in one of my favorite places!!
