holy pasta

among other excitement during my weekend in new york, we grabbed dinner one night at a new handmade pasta place in the east village - Spina. it was AMAZING. if you find yourself in the neighborhood i recommend a trip there for cute outdoor seating, awesome wine, great service and one of the best pasta dishes i've ever had.

i miss new york.

i spent a few nights up in new york last weekend i've never missed it this much after returning to dc. i had family time, city time, shopping, nights out. it was the perfect weekend.

we started with curry at the brick lane friday night, off to drinks in the village. saturday we brunched in park slope, then headed back to the village for window shopping and afternoon margaritas and aj's birthday (!) dinner. sunday we headed back to the village yet again for coffee, real shopping and lots of pictures. i need a trip back SOON.
