Alice's Tea Cup and other Adventures in NYland...

Friday I had such a fun morning! Lauren, Mike, Zoe, and I went to Alice's Tea Cup. It was my first time there, and it was such a cute place! Lauren and I both bought "groupons" a few weeks ago and decided to use them! Boy are we glad we did! It was such a fun time, not to mention the delicious food and tea! The groupons were for a 3-tiered breakfast...with fruit/yogurt, eggs, and a delicious scone. Zoe and I both got banana chocolate chip scones. Wow the food was so good!


They give little girls fairy wings to wear while they enjoy their meal, and well as fairy dust. Zoe didn't really want the fairy dust and she was also reluctant to put those wings on to compliment her beautiful dress...but she came around soon enough, and ended up modeling those sparkly wings for us!

As we were leaving, Zoe was already talking about going back there sometime. It was such a fun leisurely morning to start off the weekend.

The weekend was fun, as Matt and I went on adventure on Saturday that was a total bust and was totally hilarious to say the least. We got these city walk dog cards that had what seemed to be a really nice and fun walk at a national park near the Rockaways and Jamaica Bay. That place was a major dump...we didn't last long there even though we drove a good half hour or so there. I managed to take just 1 picture... I should have taken more to document the smelly rocky seaweedy beaches, the blood sucking vulture bugs, the lack of people, and not taken care of landscapes. haha.

To make up for it, we headed to Brooklyn Heights to the promenade, the dog park, and we FINALLY waited in the giant line for the infamous Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory. (I've wanted to try that since we moved here!) We got chocolate chocolate chip cones (mine with sprinkles of course)...and the picture I got of that I have chocolate all over my face because it was such a hot and melty day...so I'll just show you how eager Rocket was to check the place out while we were in line instead! The ice cream was amazing!

FINALS ARE OVER!!!!!! YAY!!!We head to Chicago this weekend (even Rocket!). We can't wait! =)

Comments are the best! =)
