Dreaming of Disneyland…

NYC is a far cry from Disneyland right now… We’re bracing for a storm! This morning, I put Dolly into her black skull and crossbones sweater, and walked her around the East Village amid light snow flurries. We’re being promised a doozy, but you never really know what it’ll be like until it hits.

Having said that, there’s something exciting about knowing that tomorrow morning, the view from your bedroom window will look completely different!

I’m really hankering for some warm weather, though. I leave for my West Coast adventure in 19 days, and I keep checking the temperatures in L.A. They make me smile! I am such a confirmed Yelp addict, so I’ve been scouting the best juice and raw food places around where we’re staying in Hollywood… I’m makin’ lists, and checkin’ ’em twice! Can’t wait to share my discoveries with you afterwards.
