Union Square Park, NYC
It’s common to complain about how long winter is, but it’s the perfect amount of time. My only complaint about this season was how little snowfall there was, but that’s my issue every year with any amount of snow - it’s never enough. That being said, did I make the most of the season? According to my winter list, no. Haha. But according to real life? It was wonderful.
1. Go skiing.
I did not, but this one is truly not my fault because snow conditions were so poor this year.
2. Eat ramen for the first time.
Okay, no it didn’t happen. Was there a reason it didn’t? Nope. I just never found myself in the mood.
3. Make some Christmas-y appetizers (cranberry grilled cheese, charcuterie wreath, etc.)
Yes! Finally! And they were great.
4. Get the lobster bisque from The Soupman (the Seinfeld soup nazi) near Central Park (I haven’t eaten it in years and it’s incredible).
Fully forgot.
5. Find a snowmobile and ride it.
No snow = no snow mobiles, I don’t make the rules.
Okay, this list didn’t go very well with 1/5. But that’s okay. I suffer from a condition where you can delude yourself into thinking that your past failures don’t define you. Spring list coming tomorrow!
