NEW YORK WEEKEND

It feels good to escape your usual weekend routine every once in a while, and luckily last weekend Andres and I got to do just that. We drove over to Brooklyn to visit a few of my best friends from middle school and enjoyed time together as much as we could.

I'd been to New York plenty of times, but oddly enough I can't say I'd ever had a picnic in Central Park - and I was SO looking forward to it. We got some snacks from Whole Foods and planted ourselves on the nearest shade we could find, played a few rounds of Taboo (girls won!), and simply enjoyed the views and the weather.

At night it was dinner and cotton candy over at the japanese restaurant Kenka, followed by too much dancing and singing at a nearby bar/club.
