MEANWHILE, IN CHINATOWN . . .

over thanksgiving when all my family was in town, brandon and brother-in-law zach took huck and cousin teddy on a little bro-venture down to chinatown, destination: chicken feet (and other boy nonsense). it turned into this epic afternoon of chinatown discovery and brandon hasn't stopped talking about it since. as soon as the weather warmed up he wanted take me to retrace their steps, so on saturday we did it. i mean, it wasn't warm or anything but march and i are trying to make peace with each other. 

 p.s. special mention this weekend goes to these dark chocolate marshmallows i found at zabars on friday because they have been blowing our ever loving miiiiiinds.

    Chinatown was my unexpected love from my first New York visit. Your photos - those colors! that hustle & bustle! - make me itch to go back.

    can you try acupuncture for you beauty experiment ? This lady in my ward keeps telling me it will make it easier to get pregnant. I don't know if I believe her, but I thought it would fit well into your beauty experiment...and who knows she might be right.

    wandering around chinatown is my favorite. spencer and i love to go into random grocery stores and find the nastiest, most outrageous thing they sell.

    I love dim sum, and this list has just made me so hungry. Chocolate marshmallows? So good! I want some desperately now.

    Your weekend looks awesome. Even if it was cold. I'll take New York at any weather. And I've NEVER (gasp) explored China Town when I've visited. Next time.

    Okay, I love me a good pun, so the "too chicken to try chicken legs" thing? No apologies needed.

    I rue that you were so close to Joe's Shanghai and yet there are not any soup dumplings in your story. It's one of the few things I really wish I lived in NY for.

    How fun! Reading your blog always makes me long for NYC and also to get pregnant. Your family is just precious and I am now experiencing that waiting for baby time that I know you are all too familiar with... xo

    I accidentally went into that bookstore that you're talking about once and was just so confused. All I wanted was to grab a magazine and I had google mapped a bookstore around me and there was no warning that it was all japanese. now had i known about the snacks on the third floor... ;)

    don't you feel like a real new yorker when you know about the curry donuts on the third floor across from bryan park? (you should). also yesssss - dark chocolate covered marshmallows are the bombdotcom. people really need to eat more of them (i'm doing what i can!)
