Hey everyone! I was so busy this weekend, I had no time to blog, or workout for that matter, but I got in a lot of walking around the city!!!! My mom and dad picked me up from work on Thursday at 4pm and we headed to the airport. We said goodbye to dad and headed to our terminal. Inside the gate, mom and I found out that our flight was delayed due to the air traffic control computers being down. So decided to get something to eat since we weren’t going to be able to eat until about 9pm when we got yo NYC. We deiced to go to UFood Grill and get tofuision bowls.

It was tofu, brown rice and steamed veggies with a spicy orange flavored sauce. I was relieved to see something healthy and yummy in the food court. I feel like lately in Boston, healthy options have been popping up everywhere, which is a good thing. I loved this meal it was tasty, spicy and filling. After we ate, I headed to Starbucks to get up some coffee. I ordered a short nonfat ginger bread latte, but they told me they could no do a short and I had to get a tall. It is bigger than the one I usually get but, we had about an hour and a half until we boarded (our flight got even more delayed)so, I sipped this coffee while reading the new Woman’s Health, Cooking Light and Rachel Rae.

The flight was smooth, but we waited for about an hour for a cab to get to our hotel because there was an accident right by the airport entrance. We got to our hotel at 11pm and just went to our room and crashed. I got up at 5:35 to meet Jesse for a run. While getting dressed, I ate 1/2 of a green superfood bar.

We were supposed to meet in front of my hotel at 5:45am, but the elevators were slow and I didn’t get down there until 5:50. The man at the front desk told me she left and I ran a few blocks down to see if I could catch up, but it was dark and I didn’t know where I was, so I ran back to my hotel and jumped back into bed. I hadn’t had a great night sleep, so a few extra hours of sleep was helpful.

Mom and I got up at 8am and got showered and dressed and headed down to Greenhouse 36 for breakfast. Here is my outfit for the day:

Stripped sweater (H&M), dark skinny jeans (Paper Cloth Denim), Black flat knee high boots ( Aerosoles).

Greenhouse 36 was the restaurant in our hotel. All their food is made out of 100% organic products. The restaurant looked just like a greenhouse, it was adorable!

For my drinks I ordered coffee and water.

For my meal I ordered the egg white omelet. It was filled with fresh basil and tomatoes. It came with potato pancakes and grilled tomatoes.

It also came with whole wheat toast and a side of fresh fruit.

I ate the whole omelet, 1/2 of a potato pancake, all the fresh fruit and the 1 slice of whole wheat toast with strawberry jam.

After breakfast mom and I walked around Times Square.

The New Year’s Ball will be changing years soon!

We went into the Hershey’s store and I got a free Reese’s sample

We met my bestie May, her mom and sister Ellen at Macy’s on 34th street to look around! This Macy’s was HUGE and was nicely decorated for the Holidays! I think it had 8 floors!!!! We decided to look around to get some ideas for my Bridal Registry, which I need to create soon!!! I feel IN LOVE with a China pattern!!!!

It is by Kate Spade and it called the Gardner Street Platinum.

Isn’t it gorgeous?!?!?!!

We did a little more shopping and then headed back to our hotel for relax a little before our big night out! While watching Oprah, I had a snack of fat free blueberry yogurt and a banana.

Did you guys see Oprah’s big announcement ?! What did you think??? I was surprised for sure. I am a huge Oprah fan, so I was a little sad f. But, I can understand that her show is so much work and after 25 years she must be absolutely exhausted, right?!

After Oprah, we got dressed to go to dinner and a show. Here is my outfit for the night:

Black Turtle Neck (GAP), Blue Leather Skirt (Buffalo Exchange, circa 1980′s), black tights (Target), Black Suede Pumps ( Jessica Simpson).

We had dinner at The Rock Center Cafe. This restaurant was really nice and it had a big picture window that over looked the Rockerfeller Center skating rink. We actually saw a proposal happen on the skating rink. So cute!!! I started off with a glass of Shiraz.

I also had a roll that had flax and pumpkin seeds in it…so yummy!

For my meal, I ordered the salmon. It came with some white bean and some kalmata olive puree. It was delicious!

For dessert, we all had a Warm Pumpkin Pie Martini!!!!

It had whiskey, spices and pumpkin and was topped with whipped cream and a cinnamon stick.

May, Ann, Ellen, Mom and I!

After dinner, we headed to see the Rockette Christmas Show. The show was amazing! It is so unbelievable how they are all able to stay in time with each other! I couldn’t even believe it!!!! I used to want to be a Rockette when I was a little girl. I tap danced for over 10 years, I bet you guys didn’t know that, huh? I am full of surprises!!! The inside of Radio City Music Hall was all decorated for the Holidays!!!!

After the show we walked around the city a little bit. This is the star that will go on top of the tree at Rockerfeller Center.

Here I am with the Statue of Liberty!

I loved all the little snowflakes on the side of this building! The whole city seemed to be preparing for the Holidays!!!

After walking for a little bit, we stopped in at a lounge and got a drink. I got a blueberry lemonade.

It was really yummy, I loved the lemonade and blueberry flavors together! After the drink we went back to the hotel and crashed!!! Which is what I am going to do right now. I will be up early tomorrow to work on part two and and head to Body Pump. I actually have not worked out since Wednesday, although I did a TON of walking this weekend!!!!
