'The Book of Mormon' and NYC

I traveled to New York City this past weekend with Z and his family to see the Broadway show "The Book of Mormon." The musical, albeit insanely offensive, was incredibly hilarious. Trey Parker (one of the creators of the show), Tom Hanks and Phil Donahue were even in the audience. It was a fantastic, star-studded evening. The show is allegedly sold out through September - but if you can get tickets, and if you have a sense of humor, I highly recommend you see this musical.

In addition to the show, some other highlights from our weekend included a Crumbs Bake Shop sighting...


Day drinking in Midtown, complete with fried food and Yuengling on tap...



As well as an amazing dinner at The National, craft brews at The Stag's Head, and eating New York pizza at 3 a.m. The weekend wasn't very economical, but it was a fantastic weekend regardless, and Z's family was generous enough to treat us to many meals, the show itself, and a night stay at the W. I am one lucky lady, and thoroughly enjoyed the weekend. The best part? I got to spend solid quality time with family and friends.

How was your weekend?
