September Colloge


Happy Last Day of September!

September has been a very busy month for me; full of road trips and good times. 
Every weekend was a different adventure.

Sept 1-2: Road trip to Washington DC to visit my sister and cousins. 
We brunched, explored the arboretum, and hung out like old times.
Sept 8-9: Road trip to Buffalo for Sean's childhood friend's wedding. 
We took the scenic route, saw some good street art, had a fancy breakfast at the hotel, 
and rocked out to my famous Road Trip playlist.
Sept 15-16: Road trip to Massachusetts for a family reunion,
 and to root on my cousin who plays football at Harvard. 
I also enjoyed a fantastic meal at the Red Hat in Irvington with my pals,
and met my cousin's new dog, Zeus. L'shanah tovah!
Sept 22-23: Road trip to Albany for Kristen and Travis' state-side wedding party.
The happy couple threw an awesome Texas Style BBQ which included delicious meats 
(yes, I ate ribs! and sort of regretted it afterwards...), 
sweet treats of s'mores and candy apples, and even their very own caricature artist! 
The next day, Jack and I enjoyed our special fall cocktail on the way to the Yankees game.
The team lost but we still had a blast!
Sept 29-30: Finally, a weekend where I wasn't road tripping! 
Sean came to NY for a visit. We went to Obscura, which you may be familiar with
from the Science Channel's show "Oddities." 
We did not make any odd purchases, but it was fun looking around. 
We then enjoyed a raw, vegan, gluten-free, sugar-free lunch at Rawvolution, and felt great after eating there! 
Next we did a little research for an upcoming project we have in the works at the NY Public Library.

September, you pretty much rocked.
