So here's how it happens. My sister in law gets awarded a fancy Gracie award for Best Sports Anchor of the year, her school decides to fly her to NYC to receive the award in person and the rest of us Lansford ladies get lucky enough to tag along for an extended girls weekend. Recipe for perfection I say!
We took on the Big Apple for five days so instead of boring you with the details of our daily schedule, the highlights by category are below.
That being said, nothing pictured below will top exploring the outskirts of Times Square four nights in a row to hunt down the Jamaican men selling questionable purses, watches and sunglasses! No pictures cause we clearly didn't want to get caught or impaled.

Tasty Bites
Usually while in New York, I love to shop. Given my growing bump, that was a no-go this time around. I made up for it by researching yummy bites and iconic food spots for us instead. Pretty much every stop was a huge success.

| Sunday brunch at Sarahbeths |
 |
| Getting excited for our "Fat and Fluffy" french toast and pancakes. |
 |
| My Lemon Ricotta pancakes and as you can see from my bacon, their "sides" are quite generous. |

 |
| Quick trip to Harlem for some chickin and waffles |
