Hello! I’m back — had to take a brief hiatus from blogging due to major time constraints. I’m hoping to return to a regular rhythm starting now. I miss you guys!
So, this past week, I celebrated a major milestone: 8 years in New York! Yep, it’s funny what an important anniversary this is for me since I remember how intimidated I was when I first left Boston and showed up here with my parents and a moving van back in 2008.
Matt and I always celebrate by planning a super New York-y thing to do. One year, we went and saw Woody Allen perform at the Carlyle Hotel. We’ve gone on a pizza tour. We’ve rented rowboats in Central Park. But this year, we celebrated with a toast at one of my favorite local Brooklyn bars because, quite honestly, after 8 years of living here I think one of the best parts about this city is finding a spot where you feel like a regular. (It’s hard!)
What are some non-traditional milestones you love to celebrate? (For example, a friendiversary.)
