back to provo

living in provo is like paradise, but sometimes you just feel like going back to reality for a break.

my week spent in new york couldn’t have been better, shopping, public transportation and even pollution did real good to me! now i’m ready for some more island life until we leave for our vacation in september.

it’s good to be home!

what will i read next

i have many times asked myself.

usually i ask my friends for recommendations or i ask my mum, or the easy way is going for writers that i like.

but the link that i found through a cup of jo is so handy and perfect for reading suggestions.

you just have to click on what will i read next and type in the book you are reading, you will then have a list of suggestions to read! isn’t it smart?

so yummy chocolate cake in new york

last weekend, whilst wandering in nolita, we came across the perfect spot to treat ourselves – coffee and a a slice of the best chocolate cake in the world…so well deserved after walking for hours!

i first tried this cake more than ten years ago, back home in lisbon, where the cake is from, and have been a huge fan ever since!

you can find it in three different locations in new york, and perfect for dessert or just a yummy treat. also, check out their cork sofa chairs, so cool!

nyc – nolita

my first couple of days in new york have been amazing!

i arrived saturday evening, just in time for drinks and appetizers at the crosby terrace– the stuffed zuchini flowers were so good – i had been craving for these lately!

we had a late dinner at ruby’s cafe  – my brother’s all time favourite in nolita, where we shared an amazing burguer and delicious chicken and pumpkin salad – so good!

sunday was all about walking, sightseeing and stopping by some foodie spots too!

more on ny coming soon.
