This is what Central Park looks like right now.
So when it looks like that, me and Baby Dog have to venture on over. And here's what happened.
She talks to other dogs! Do you know how rare that is? I'm thinking about making our visits a more regular thing since she really seemed to love it.
Yeah, that's it. That's the whole post. I'm sorry, but it's a big deal that she'd speak to another dog! On with your day.

I'm on Snapchat! I'm still getting the hang of it, but if you have it, my name on there is liz-heather
There are the types of photos Nathan sends me when I'm out of town.
Sidenote: Happy Birthday to one of the best women I know, my friend Marla. You're easily one of my favourite people on earth and I love you an amount that I shouldn't admit aloud.
Thank you for being you, Mom. You're the most unique, loving, caring person I've ever known and I try every day to become more like you.
This happens every single night before we turn the light off.
SPRING HAS SPRUNG! Finally.
So here's my list of things to do this perfect season of all seasons.
Eat at a Michelin starred restaurant
Drink at The Blue Bar in the Algonquin Hotel
Visit the new Whitney museum
Visit M. Wells Steakhouse
Make pad thai at home for the first time
Make an at-home strawberry face mask
Visit the Essex Street Market
Eat pizza in Staten Island
Attempt to make Julia Child's beouf bourguignon
Eat a business lunch at Sardi's
Have you started making seasonal lists of things to do yet? Are you really not into the idea?

I'm 31! And it's not terrible, it's actually kind of nice. I keep waiting to be freaked out about being in my thirties and it hasn't happened.
I went to the Hayden Planetarium today with Nathan for the first time and it was perfect. Not really worth the price, but I was happy to have finally visited. Also, why the hell aren't the chairs more reclinable there? All the money that goes into a place like that and the chairs sit upright while you glare at the ceiling and kill your neck? Makes no sense.
In any case, it was such a nice day and thanks to everyone who had very sweet things to say to me today!

You may recall that I made a winter list of things that I wanted to do. Did I do them? Let's see.
"FINALLY try to make cauliflower crust for a pizza." - I did it! Check it out!
"Visit the Martha Stewart Café in Chelsea." - I did, and it was lacklustre! And totally out of the way (it's near 11th Avenue), so don't ever bother.
"Finally visit Fraunces Tavern." - I only made it there to have drinks (we got there too late to eat food or see the museum), but the drinks were average? I don't know, I didn't see the big deal. Maybe the museum part's cooler? No wait, that last sentence doesn't make sense.
"Make homemade vanilla extract." - I completely forgot about this one, oops.
"Eat a By Chloe vegan burger." - I did it and you can read about it here.
So that's that, I got 4/5. Not bad. Spring, here we go!

I like to tell you how to organize your life, I realize, and I'll probably never stop.
That being said, are you constantly forgetting things? I'm not talking about important things, those are easy to remember. But the lesser-important things like:
How are you supposed to remember these tiny, somewhat-insignificant thoughts? Why, in list form, of course! I use the Note Pad app on my phone for things like this and it's entitled "Friend Reminders" and in it I list my friends (and some family members) names and I bullet point things underneath each name that I have to remember to do or say to them the next time I see them. Does that seem like too much effort? No. And it shouldn't. Doing this lets my brain relax and focus on other things. And I highly encourage you start one if you've ever had trouble remembering nonsense.
