What I Ate in NYC

No excuses. I have been a bad blogger for the last two weeks.

I spent almost 2 weeks in New York City, as part of a program I'm participating in through Hebrew Union College, my alma mater. Ten days without my kids and husband, staying in Midtown Manhattan. Yep.

So I did what any left-alone mama would do.

I ate.
And of course, I photographed much of what I ate.
Isn't that what everyone does?

Starting at the top...from left to right:
Crepe for lunch (I may have also had a dessert crepe but ate it before I could photograph)
Magnolia cupcakes
Latte
Cinnamon-Raisin Peanut Butter Sandwich
Pizza...as only you can eat it in New York City
White Pizza
Macaroni and Cheese
Molly's Cupcakes - the butterscotch salted caramel cupcake may have changed my life.
Moroccan Oranges by JaneTheWriter
Cupcakes Baked by Melissa
Crack Pie from Momofuku
Poached Eggs Florentine from Cozy Soup n' Burger

I ate a bunch of other food...but luckily I walked an average of 5 miles a day...how else are New Yorkers so skinny!?

I don't know how I would ever live in a city with such amazing food. Since I actually ate other things too. I can't believe I didn't photograph the food I ate at Shake Shack (milkshake, french fries, veggie burger, and hot chocolate), Crumbs cupcakes, Rice to Riches (I know I took that picture, where did it go?), various bagels and snacks and such...

Thank goodness I live here instead.
Whew!
