{ shake shack is my biggest weakness… but the chicken sandwich is beyond worth it }

there are a lot of things that i write on this blog about that i love. one that i haven’t covered as much is food, and i think it’s about time it gets some love. i am lucky to live in a city that has countless options for amazing places to eat (along with options to grab a 3 a.m. snack when out and about…). there are countless markets that i would recommend making a stop at (gotham west market, urbanspace, and chelsea market to name a few), but you’ll never be at a loss for a great bagel, something to satisfy your sweet tooth, a slice of pizza, or even a salad if you want to get healthy.

{snowdays’ shaved ice is the perfect pick me up }

{try one of the many delicious creations at mike’s burgers, like their burger with corned beef. unf. }

{ friedman’s brunch menu, especially the pulled pork eggs benedict, is worth the wait on weekend mornings }

{ turkey egg sandwiches really make waking up on sundays much more bearable }

{ birds and bubbles has one of the most delicious chicken sandwiches i’ve ever had }

{ stop by dough to satisfy your sweet tooth… it will work }

{ georgetown cupcake still has a special place in my heart thanks to its soho location }

{ urbanspace vanderbilt is one of my favorite food halls in the city }

{ that time i braved the blizzard that hit new york to stop by central park and shake shack }

{ picking up doughnuts for a mid-day meeting can make work not so dreary }

{ getting the new room all set up }

hello and goodbye to september, you were here and gone oh, so quickly. i’ve been told that you won’t really realize college is over until you get to october, and it starts to hit you. this is true… i’ve started to realize now more than ever, “here i am in the real world, and i’m not going anywhere.” it’s been a realization, but that’s what happens when you’re growing up… or so i’ve been told. here’s a little look into my september, which i still can’t believe is over.

{ my bed has become my haven after a long day at work… so has “friends”}

{ brunch at 44 & x, my new neighborhood spot }

{ quick trip to dc, forever my home away from home }

{ union market in d.c., killing the shrimp sandwich game }

{ great falls, va: the hike where i decided to break in a new pair of sneakers…}

{ making sure that georgetown is well represented here in the city }

{ although rock center will be crazy at christmas, still happy it’s so close to work }

{ the pups a few seconds before trying to attack a fish }

{ the new subway stop near my apartment is a+ }

{ adding pretzels to chocolate chip cookies = a good decision }

i haven’t done one of these posts in ages, so i figured it was time to compile all my instagrams and do a quick recap of the past couple of months. the fact that it’s already july 20th and i’m a few months out of college is a bit insane to process, but here i am trying to process it. p.s. there’s a lot of food pics in here, because if you know me you know that i aspire to have one of those amazing food instagram accounts that makes you crave every single that is posted.
