ahhh the weekend

sad to recap the weekend on a monday at 8:44am when it seems like the next one is soooo far away but alas.... friday was a semi-lazy one w dinner/drink and a katherine heigel movie (blah she annoys). 

sat i had brunch w lara and her rents!! at vanderbilt 570 vanderbilt (at bergen) 718.623.0570 i have now completed the bandler family circle and again, wish i swung the gay way bc i would def marry lara and her whole fam! her mom and pop couldn't be sweeter.... i've been waiting to eat at ben's spot and brunch was damn good- now i can't wait for dinner! i had granola w greek yogurt and dried fruit (yea i don't know what came over me either but it was tasty none the less). everyone else's hanger steak and eggs and benedict looked marvelous but i was not w the largest appetite that day for some reason (??) then i ran some errands and lara came ovr to get ready w me for her friend will's b day at 1 oak 453 w 17th (bet 9/10th ave) the spot was pretty cool but i would prob not frequesnt it on a "normal" night w it's sheeshee crowd and red velvet rope etc. i learned to walk in my fav heels a bit better and i much preferred berry park 4 berry st (at n 14th) where lara and i ended the night. big space, good dj, nice mixed crowd.... 

sunday was super enjoyable w a trip to NJ!! (*note* DO NOT go to the REI in jerz it sucks!) a sister couldn't even find a decent pair of snow pants!? BUT did find a good car wash out there.... i ate at 2 new spots sunday which i am pretty excited to go back to: half king (23rd st and 10th ave) amazing "bar food" and brunch and a really cool space (psssst after 4pm they have burger shots and pigs in a blanket). and papacitos 999 manhattan ave (near huron) 718.349.7292 mexican is my fav and now this place is too. amazin' and i had delivery and it was still nice-n-fresh and just GOOD. guac is off charts and so are the (homemade) chips. soooo now that you've heard all about my weekend, you can go into your work week happily.....

cheers
