Week Two of Moving to NYC in Review

What an eventful week! (Mostly because everything is an event when everything is new.) Here are some highlights from my second week as a New Yorker:

  • I got discovered. Ha! Don't get too excited. I went to my first open mic at the Broadway Comedy Club on Wednesday and the lady running it just so happened to think I was great and she booked me for two upcoming shows! (So, yeah. I got discovered.)

  • "Hey what's that wet stuff?" is a question I ask myself every day. The answer is "hopefully water." I guess the buildings just kind of...rain on you...occasionally. Still a lot of mystery surrounding this topic.

  • I have 12 mosquito bites on my body. Eric has zero. I have seen zero mosquitos. Adult chicken pox?

  • I did my first Bikram yoga class in Harlem. The most exciting part is they were giving out FREE SAMPLES OF ARNICA GEL. This is that bruise-prevention substance that I carry around with me in my purse and I constantly recommend to people.

I'm clumsy and I bruise like a peach--but not anymore thanks to the power of Arnica! I swear they don't pay me to advertise this. But they should.

  • "Red Macaroni and Cheese" is when you put tomato soup and cheddar cheese on some noodles and then bake it in the oven. Delicious!

  • Speaking of tomato soup...we went to the MOMA yesterday and saw all those soup cans Andy Warhol did! You could just google image search them if you want. This little sketch/poem of his was my favorite.

"H was a herring who was eating by this young girl without the herring caring."

  • My first New York frittata was created and consumed this morning.

 Featuring caramelized onions, bacon, spinach, and goat cheese.

  • Eric installed privacy reeds on our balcony!

Now we can eat our frittata without making our neighbors jealous.
