First storm of the year

2014 has welcomed the NorthEast with several inches of snow. Living in NYC, it's rare that the public schools get closed so I was extremely surprised that it was closed this Friday. It also gave me a reason to work at home, I refuse to go out in the snow when I can stay home and be cozy - that might be a sign that I'm getting old.

It was freezing the past 2 days and it's not going to get any warmer. Monday is going to be ugly with some rain and Tuesday is going to be freezing again. I don't mind ugly weather, but I mind when I have to carry my work laptop around - can anyone relate?

After coming back from a small vacation, I really miss being lazy and just doing whatever I like at my own pace. I can't wait for my next vacation which I think will be planned way ahead of time this year.

Deep Dulls for Colder Days

The weather has been pretty crazy lately. Extremely warm and beautiful one day, blistering cold winds the other. I'm still a bit sick and this bipolar weather really isn't helping much.

JDL and I decided to take it easy this past Saturday. We were going to run some errands in the city and relax at the same time. Yea, I know it's quite hard to do that especially when you're surrounded by busy New Yorkers.

While we were mellowing it out Saturday, Friday was fun also. We got to try this new wine bar near his workplace. It was cute and we love the vibe. Vitis La Vineria was ran by 2 ladies and they sure made it work. It wasn't too busy or crowded which is a plus. JDL and I had 3 glasses each which included a glass of champagne on-the-house, so bubbly!

After that, we grabbed a late night bite at Yakiniku West. Love me some barbeque even though I reek of fumes and smoke afterwards. Might I add, it was a bit tough getting in and out of my seat since it's the Japanese "sink-hole" seats. You have to remove your shoes at the door, which then the waiter leads you to the dining area with cushions on the floor. Very comfortable.

Trenches I've been starting to fancy, it would be a nice time now to start looking for one when Spring comes.
