Where the hell do women keep their nail polish? In a drawer beside the bed? A washroom cabinet? Why the hell are they always so hidden? I've wanted to proudly display my colours for years now and I've been looking for one of these organizers for EONS. And look how gorgeous!
I'm not suggesting that everyone needs to buy one of these since that's insane, but a board like this seems like it might be fairly easy to assemble yourself. And once the people in your family start having babies, you'll kind of need to have something like this somewhere in your house to keep track of everyone. Such a good idea.
This is definitely one of my favourite ice cream shops in New York City. It really feels like it fell out of the 1950s and somehow managed to stay afloat all these years. You can even sit at the counter! Like at Pop Tate's!
Jenn and I went here recently so that I could finally try an egg cream. Despite its name, it contains neither eggs nor cream - it's a beverage consisting of milk, carbonated water and chocolate syrup. What does it taste like? I would classify it as a lighter milkshake (ie. delightful).
I've wanted to try one of these for years and it didn't disappoint. I'm not sure if it's mainly something you can order in New York or if they're as popular in other states, but if you find yourself in this part of Queens, you should really try one.
The other day (on my to Dominique Ansel Kitchen), I stumbled upon this card shop in the West Village that I'd never even heard of (and, if you know me, you should be well aware that I'm a dominant figure in the greeting-card-store scene*). They've had a storefront since 2005 and surprise, surprise - it's great!
They sell a lot of independently published greeting cards (ie. the best ones), some stationary, wall decor, etc. If you find yourself on Christopher Street, you should definitely stop inside.
*Yes, there is a greeting-card-store scene and no I'm not embarrassed to be in it.
If you can think of three or more shows you like to occasionally watch on Food Network - YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS SHOW. (If any of those Food Network shows you watch center around Guy Fieri... yikes. May want to re-think some life choices.)
Quick summery? Each episode of the series profiles a single world-renowned chef. That's it. That may not sound extraordinary, but it's shot so beautifully and it's so well done - I can't get enough of it. And I promise you that I don't feel this way based solely on the fact that I've been to one of the restaurants that they do an episode on. WATCH THIS SHOW!
