Ahoy there,<\/p>\n

I know it’s time for my usual Thursday post, but today I am off to New York City, so I will instead be over-excitedly bombarding your social media with pictures.<\/p>\n

They’re crazy. Okay, we’re all a little crazy.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A few of my friends and I have been planning this trip for months, and I’m not gonna lie, I am overwhelmed with excitement. I mean, New York over the holidays! The Strand Bookstore! Dumplings and bubble tea and bagels and gyros! We’re even taking in a Broadway show, which blows my mind a little. Too much excitement for this hick little small town girl.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If you’d like, you can read about my previous trips to the city. Here is\u00a0New York in the winter<\/a>, and\u00a0New York in the summer<\/a>. You can also follow me on Instagram\u00a0here<\/a>, if you’d like to\u00a0feel green with jealousy as we have our adventures.<\/p>\n

If you’ve been there, and know of any places we simply must see, or if you have tips for actually staying warm enough, let me know in the comments.<\/p>\n

Now, I’m off to freeze my face and toes. Till next week…<\/p>\n
