All right, now. Time for a little fun in the Big Apple! We started our day in a nice little shop called Angelina’s Bakery. They had a lovely selection of scones, pastries and different types of coffee. MM got a much-needed cup of joe. I got a pastry with cream cheese glaze and strawberries, blueberries and blackberries on top, along with a mocha. It was delicious!
Since our hotel was in the Garment District, we had to make a pilgrimage to a place MM has longed to see since Project Runway made Tim Gunn famous — MOOD! The famous fabric store has gorgeous material and notions. MM looked like she was in heaven. Thank you, Mood!
Time for Times Square! We made our way to the most famous intersection in the world for a little shopping and people-watching. We went into American Eagle, Loft, H&M, Levis, the Disney Store and a bunch more. I don’t think I have ever shopped in stores that big before!
We also went to the World of M&M’s. They have every single flavor and color of M&M that you could dream of. This is a must do, especially if you love chocolate!
After a few hours of shopping, we were dropping and decided to pop into Junior’s for some authentic N.Y. cheesecake. The original Junior’s is in Brooklyn, but the Times Square location is DEE-LISH, too! It’s “the most fabulous cheesecake in the world.”
What an afternoon! Back to the hotel for a little rest, before our big night on the town. All about that in our next post!
