I've been training for this my entire life. Well, the "eating-too-much-sugar-without-getting-sick" part, that is. The running? Not so much. 🧁 The NYC Cupcake Run, dubbed "NYC'S Sweetest 5k", has runners stop and scarf down 3 full-sized cupcakes at various points during the course. If there is anything that can convince me to get off my … Continue reading 7th Annual NYC Cupcake Run

Hi there!

Before it was “Manhattan,” the island was covered with wild and beautiful flowers. They’re still found in front of buildings, but they’ve never been able to compete with the scale of their surroundings — until now.
