I've been neglecting you lately and I'm here to fill you all in.
Remember this post? It's the one where I gave you my NYC wishlist and got some GREAT tips from all of you. (thanks!) We accomplished most things and added other fun stuff too. Here's an update.
1.Where we stayed: The Inn on 23rd was our B+B and it was fabulous! We lucked out and got their last available room. Super cute, fantastic hosts and a great location. I would definitely go back.
2. What we ate: Every single bite of food we ate was absolute yumminess! Grimaldi's, Locanda Verde, Good, Momofuku's Ma Peche and Milk were amazing! I'll post more on the food later.
3. Where we went: So much to see, and never enough time! We accomplished most of our must-do's but not Eataly! Can you believe it? We had so much fun and are already planning a return visit so I'm totally OK with that.
Times Square, Chrysler Building, 9/11 Memorial, Wall St., St. Patrick's Cathedral, the High Line, Top of the Rock, Brooklyn and Little Italy are just some of the places we went.
My favorite? Central Park. The rainy morning on Friday cleared up just in time for us to enjoy a beautiful stroll around the Pond. It's a magical oasis in the middle of skyscrapers.
And it's extra special now because this is where Mark proposed!

I finally remembered to take a picture at the Top of the Rock...
It's been a whirlwind ever since! This week has been filled with telling our families and friends, parties, picking a date (next September!) and looking for a venue.
So if you notice fewer posts - that's why! Stay tuned for more NYC details.
