Ideal Bite

I feel like I’ve been city-break-hopping all summer long. Weekend trips to the beach, Cape Cod, the Hamptons, Chicago, Philly…I’m exhausted just thinking about it. Although trips = fun times, I’ve unfortunately been ignoring friends to the point that one gal emailed me today asking if I moved! Well, this weekend I’m staying put (firmly) and catching up on some NYC events. See ya there…
