Feels Like Christmas

My best friend/life partner came to stay last weekend!
It's become a tradition for her to visit around the holidays,
and this year was epic.  We started with lunch at Ippudo,
(this is the akamaru modern. absolute fav)

















followed by churros at The Churreria, a trip to HousingWorks,
the Soho Etsy market-which was slightly confusing-but still charming
nonetheless, and then dinner with the husband at Blau Gans.
(if you go, get the schnitzel!)

















We saw this on our walk to the train. Definitely worth documenting.
Proving once more that you can find anything your heart desires in NYC.

After dinner we made our way to BAM to see the Nutcracker,
which was glorious.  It wasn't the Balanchine version but
the choreography was still beautiful and the show was still
a nod to the classic.  It made me want to take dance classes again,
and get a pair of red pointe shoes...but I always want those.

After a long bus ride back to Queens
we managed to catch the tail end of the SHAC
(Sunnyside Holiday Apartment Crawl)
where we drank bubbles, ate delicious snacks,
and caught up with friends.

It was the perfect way to really get into the Christmas spirit.
