Estoy comiendo mas manzanas.

I didn't take too many pictures during Maggie's stay, but I wanted to post a few!  You may notice that the vast majority of these have to do with food.  Let's just say we ate extremely well!!  We'd search out the holes-in-the-wall most unique to NYC, and they were all so worth it!

 Maggie at The Gray Dog

Creme Brulee Doughseed from the Doughnut Plant!

 The Brooklyn Flea and Smorgasbord.  Moved to an indoor location for the winter months.

 Outside the Brooklyn flea.

 We walked across the Williamsburg Bridge.

 Babycakes.  Vegan bakery.  Who knew vegan could taste so amazing?!

The New Museum.  Not that we visited, but just walking by I enjoyed the aesthetics of a boat suspended above the streets of Lower Manhattan.

 Dominique Ansel Bakery.  Yes, we succumbed to the craze of the Cronut.  I hadn't heard about the Cronut prior to Maggie's visit.  But up for the adventure, I willingly got up before dawn so we could catch an early train.  All so we could stand in line for an hour before the bakery even opened.

Here's a collage that Maggie created.  Clockwise from bottom Left: The line waiting for us when we arrived to the bakery.  Maggie and I enjoying our Cronut and DKA (we got one of each and split them).  A baker hard at work filling/decorating Cronuts.  Last but not least, the Cronut (combination Croissant and Donut)

Brunch at Brinkley's Station.

My love of the city grows!
Hasta!
