So far...
- check out thrift stores but don't buy a lot of clothes- I never end up wearing them! Maybe look for vintage necklaces or bags...
- find the best cupcake. I'm totally not convinced it's at Magnolia of SNL fame, although I'll have to try it before I decide for sure. I found someplace on the UWS (Upper West Side) that is very delish- the last time I was there two businessmen were sharing cupcakes after work. Adorable.
- find a used bookstore that sells Italian books. Contemporary ones. This may be a challenge. The last Italian bookstore I went after totally didn't exist.
- teach the bf to cook. This will be FUN.
- go to the Brooklyn Botanical Garden, which is supposed to be great, and the Brooklyn museum.
That's it for now, I think...of course I'll be haunting my favorite NYC spots- Union Square, the junky clothing shops in SoHo, and the B&N in Park Slope to read mags for free. And there's always the Madison Square Park Shake Shack, which did not recieve enough of my business last year. Flavor-of-the-day frozen custard, here I come!
Things I'll miss here include dinner on the deck (when the bugs are absent), Settlers (if you don't know, it's really safer not to ask) and all of my friends.

If you eat pizza or bagels you should definitely seek out the best you can find of those. I guess they're a NYC staple?
Or try finding the cleanest public restroom possible? I'd certainly be interested in your findings should I ever venture to the city myself. :)
The Quirky Quest possibilities are endless I'm sure. :)
Thanks for reading!! Yay! I didn't think anyone would :0
OMG Ang, at the first agency I worked at this previously homeless dude submitted a manuscript called "The Bathrooms of NY" - a memoir through bathrooms. AND it was going to come with a map of all the best public bathrooms in NY.
Bagels are def. a passion of mine.
