I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend. It was a beautiful weekend here in the city; and felt surprisingly long even though I didn’t have Friday off. Friday night I caught up with my cousin over wine and nibbles, Saturday I had brunch at one of my favorites, followed by an unexpected trip to the Met to tour the Steins Collect. I don’t remember the last time I went to the Met (tragic I know) but it was such a nice way to spend the afternoon! And I would highly recommend the exhibit; it was fascinating and brought me right back to my trip to Paris last year.
To get in the festive mood I made Easter cupcakes for work on Friday-inspired by this post but made mini and with caramel buttercream! |
My favorite type of meal-a little of everything-the perfect Friday night! |
A day at the Met-so very Gossip Girl isn’t it?? |
My good friend Blair organized Easter brunch for all the “orphans” that don’t have families nearby to go home to. This year we went to Norma’s in the Le Parker Meridien. I remember going for breakfast over 10 years ago when visiting NY with my mom. Brunch was good, but probably a little over-rated and definitely over-priced!
Chocolate Decadence French toast-insane! |
After brunch I headed out to visit my “other” family-friends in New Jersey. We spent the afternoon walking in to town, enjoying the sunshine, and finished the day with a beautiful dinner.
All in all a wonderful weekend!
