7 Better Moments From My Weekend

Sometimes it's easy to get into the routine of every day life and forget about everything that this spectacular city has to offer me. Since one of my friends from Trinity (my first school before I transferred) was visiting me I ventured to places I normally pass without a second glance. Here are some snapshots from my weekend. 

 

1. Boating on the Central Park Lake

 

2. Trying the very famous cookie milk shot glass from Dominique Ansel's SoHo bakery

3. A trip to Smorgasburg in Brooklyn

The Better Mango Lassi

So far the New York City summer hasn't been too harsh, but it's becoming obvious that the weeks of perfect warmth, sun, and mild breeze are slipping away only to be replaced with the sticky heat that happens on the east coast. My wallet won't be able to handle multiple trips to Pinkberry in one day, so it looks like home made mango lassis are the next best thing. So refreshing and easy to make, this yogurt drink makes for a great breakfast or dessert (or dessert for breakfast? Yes please!).
