Things That Make Me Happy

I wish I was back here.

I’m having a bad day, or 2-days, or week… who knows. I’ve just felt… off, lately. So I’m going to make a list of things that make me happy:

1. Negro Modelo and tacos.
2. Ben & Jerry’s Half-Baked ice cream… but mostly just the cookie dough part and not the brownie part.
3. Rice Krispie treats hidden in my office desk drawer.
4. Wednesday = bagel day at work.
5. My boyfriend cooking for me and surprising me with a bottle of wine he got on his way home from work.
6. Pizza and games with friends on a Sunday night.
7. A hamburger, a root beer, and a Georgetown basketball game in OT with my dad and my brother.
8. Cooking on my amazing grill pan with all my Turkish spices.
9. Cold coke… the soda, not the drug.
10. Cuddling up with J on his leather couch with my favorite blanket.
11. Finishing a really good book.
12. Fried eggs on a Sunday morning with bacon.
13. My mom.
14. The Biggest Loser.
15. Thinking about taking my next trip.
16. Random, warm days in the middle of winter.
17. Finishing a project at work.
18. Napping socks.
19. Naps.

I got stuck at 19…

Welcome to My Blog

Let me start by saying—I am not a foodie. I can count on one hand the amount of lobsters I’ve eaten in my life, I’ve never had caviar, and my idea of good champagne is a nice bottle of Asti Spumante in a plastic cup. But nonetheless, I love to eat. And even more, I love to eat in New York—especially in my neighborhood, the lower east side. There’s no better place to find a chic, cheap, cozy restaurant or bar. So I’ve decided that I’m going to write about all my tasty escapades…
