  • The New York Chronicles: Life of an OC Girl in NY

    Entry 39

    OH yes... love is always in the air when it comes to Dan and me. Yes, corny I know, barf.

    But love is definitely in the air on Valentine's Day. Too bad Aunt Flow came for a visit on this day and she knocked upon my door with a lot of baggage.

    I got my flowers from the hubby while in bed and ate some of Laura's delicious chocolate covered strawberries. Nothing like waking up to flowers and sweets.

    We had more planned, but I just couldn't get out of bed. We skipped brunch and just headed for The Metropolitan Museum where we participated in the Naked Scavenger Hunt where we searched for clues and answers hidden in naked paintings, statues, relics, you name it.

    [reminder: don't forget the cut tag at the end ]

    Here's Dan before we headed in.

    We went home after the scavenger hunt so I could take a breather from Aunt Flow's unrelenting torture of my uterus. When it was time to get ready, we put on our Valentine's Day outfits and headed out to meet Sonya and Adam at Plataforma for some good ol' Brazilian BBQ. YUM...

    Ready to head out... by you.

    Plataforma Restaurant in Midtown by you.

     

    This was after we finished devouring as much as we could and our stretched-out bellies paid for it. Youch.

    After dinner we headed to K-town for some Lychee Soju.

    And that's how we ended our night...

    Just like the wedding day by you.

    No funny jokes... I said Aunt Flow was in town.

    Good night.
