Late to post this but I couldn't be more grateful to adventure through the #Valentine'sDay carnival with my lovely hubby! And hey, we came home with a friend!

Time to say goodbye to #NewYork! I was WAY too sick on the flight home to be sad about it but now I'm missing #NYC so much... =*+*= #travel

Blahaj says "Protect trans rights!" It's okay, I speak shark. I know these things. =*+*= #lgbtq #transrightsarehumanrights #protecttransrights #protecttranskids

While in #NYC, I had to make a stop at Clinton Hall, not just for their famous selection on tap (I got this wild cherry+vanilla cider that tasted like a Lip-Smackers smells?!?) but also for their *UNHINGED* Jenga pieces. Trust me, these were the tamer messages people have written on these blocks!

Can a trip to #NYC be complete without a chopped cheese sandwich?!? Absolutely not! =*+*= #food #travel #newyork #bodega

Just outside the #YaleArtGallery is a little café called "Maison B" where even the toast is a work of art! =*+*= #food #travel #YaleUniversity

An absolutely underrated part of the #YaleArtGallery is its beautiful staircases tucked away in its corners. Forget the galleries, the *staircase* is the real work of art! =*+*= #YaleUniversity #Architecture

Of course, no trip to CT would be complete without a trip to the Merritt Canteen in Bridgeport! We used to go all the time when I was a kid and it absolutely lived up to my memories!

Found THIS blast from the past in my brother's basement! It was August 2001 when we stood outside the windows of TRL and waved. The world feels so different now...

(and of course I had to check it out on a real CRT screen!)
