I'm back from New York City. We had a blast! I'll write more later but two things we did there.

1. Did the pub crawl.

2. Got Married!

Yes, I am now a married woman. Nick and I have been together 7 years, had been engaged for a few years with no real plans on a wedding. So we decided to take the plunge in NYC, mom and dad are going to plan a big party in Feb or March. To celebrate the event. I'm glad I did it this way because I hate big fusses, and all of that pomp and circumstance.

Mars Bar

East Village, New York 

What a dive bar should be. The reviews on this place are fabulous!!!!

"If you bring a woman, whatever you do, don't let her use the bathroom."

"This is what a NYC bar used to be and should aim to be"

"Are there negative numbers possible for decor?"

"Almost appealing for the sole reason that it is the most disgusting bar in the city in every way. "

I can't wait to check it out.  

I want a good dirty water hotdog.

Grey's Papaya or Papaya King? or recommend me a place

Thank so much to EmmaLM and jademaid for suggesting things for my NYC trip. I'm compiling a list, Nick is compiling his, and then we meet up and vote on what we agree on, what is most important to both of us and what is secondary just incase we can't get to all the things we want to do.

So in the food section along with

EmmaLM  - Magnolia Bakery

jademaid  - Ellen's Stardust Diner

I have NY Bagel, NY Pizza, NY Deli, and Dirty Water Hotdog.

H&H for bagels?

Lombardi's for Pizza?

NY Deli's? Katz? Carnegi?

Also I have room for one splurge dinner on the 5 day trip. I'm looking at no more than 50 dollars a person on this. perferably 20/30 bucks per person with some drinks or so.  Any ideas?

If there's one thing in New York City I should see or do or eat on my trip there in late January, what would it be?
