Yay for Fifth Avenue!
The ladies spent all of today shopping up and down Fifth Avenue. Erika found this AMAZING Kenneth Cole coat (royal blue) and we all convinced her to buy it. It was originally $300, and she got it for $65. AMAZING!
My feet are killing me. We walk for hours and hours each day.
Tonight all the couples went out for dinner. Erika and I aren't in couples, but we are a couple (of girls), so we decided to have our own hoopla. We walked (of course!) to the Whole Foods market which is in Union Square (about 20 blocks south of where we're staying) to buy ingredients to make a "healthy" (in every sense of the word) dinner.
The place was incredible! It sells only organic, all-natural, "whole" foods. The entire basement was full of mounds of the most gorgeous, colorful fruit I have ever seen, and their cheese selection... ooh-lala! If you love cheese- this is the place to go. Now, the fish bar(since there were no preservatives, of course) smelled a little... well, you know. They had their own sushi bar, and grill, inside the market where you could request made-to-order sushi, meats, etc. All fresh. All organic. Erika and I were in heaven.
The line was just as incredible as the store. There were about 30 registers- all open, but the line snaked all around store, multiple people deep. I've heard that New Yorkers aren't the most patient people. That's a lie. They will stand very docilely for their organic, all-natural produce, dairy and meat.
Erika and I thoroughly enjoyed our (organic) grapefruit, (organic) strawberry, (all-natural) banana smoothie with (organic) sharp cheddar cheese and (all-natural)granola.
We agreed. We could totally be New Yorkers.

>.< Laffy needs its own Whole Food Market! I look forward to the Farmer's Market. Not quite organic, I bet, but... *drools*
i'm so jealous - i love nyc! here's an idea - let's all move to the city - of course, we would have to all share a tiny two bedroom apt since we'd be broke. but wouldn't it be fun?!
