On Turning 38

I turned 38 over the weekend! Got to love a January birthday, where your age is easily above the high temp of the day (which was 5). We had a fun day in the city at a museum, some galleries, and Chelsea Market, before heading up to our favorite Indian restaurant in midtown.

It was a day filled with loads of birthday greetings, delicious treats -- cupcakes the night before and halva soft serve while in the city -- and lots of great fun together!

Here's to another year around the sun!

The Good. The Random. The Fun. v. 4

The Good:

We got a whopper of a snowstorm on Sunday! We're sitting at about 16 inches of snow on the ground but it was so windy that there are huge drifts everywhere!

The Random:

I got a kick out of these poodle-shaped chocolates!

The Fun:

We went to IKEA and got a shoe cabinet for our entryway. No more piles of shoes all over the floor! We feel so grown up.

Museum of Arts and Design

Back in November, my mom and I had some extra time to kill before we headed over to Lincoln Center for Ragtime. We popped into the Museum of Arts and Design to see what the latest exhibits were. This museum is a hidden gem in Columbus Circle and always has great exhibits.

This time, we saw a great exhibit on the fashion in the Black Panther movies, a collection of works by Jonathan Adler and other artists he influenced, and there was also an exhibit about the evolution of maternity/baby-related items.

It's so fun to see art like this and the costumes from Black Panther were simply stunning!! It was also really sweet, while we were there, we saw an elementary class on a field trip and it was adorable to see the kiddos loving the artwork and filling their sketch pads.

A quick trip, but I totally recommend this museum if you have some time in NYC!

A Snowy Weekend

We had another snowy weekend! We were meant to get a small dusting and ended up getting 5+ inches over the weekend! It was a perfect excuse to sit at home all weekend and do nothing.

Now it's arctic outside so this snow isn't going anywhere anytime soon and they say more is on the way! We haven't had a super snowy winter in ages so I am loving it!
