Found a new blog while reading Confessions of a Young Married Couple. It’s called Six in the City. Following each weekend, she posts mainly photos of her family’s weekend. Then she lets readers add their own weekend bits to her post. Here’s mine!
Friday, I got up before the sun and went to see Mary J. Blige in Central Park.
Mr. Spicy Lens’ family came into town. I cooked two Hashbrown Casseroles for breakfast.
We have been snacking on them all weekend. I think it tastes even better around 3pm with a glass of Coke!
Around 3pm on Friday. The door bell rang. My mom sent an Edible Arrangement, thanking us for our hospitality during her visit a few weeks ago.
On Saturday, we embraced our inner tourist and honored our house-guests’ wishes. We went to China Town and Little Italy.
Dragon Fruit in China Town. They were beautiful. I have no idea what to do with them. So I just took a photo.
Cue “Empire State of Mind.” Our view from the NY Waterway Cruise.
Tonight we walked down to the Hudson to see the fireworks from the Jersey side of the river.
I took my backpack, tripod, remote and zoom lens. Found a good spot along with another shutterbug and enjoyed the show.
Now, excuse me while I pass out. Happy 4th of July.
Wow! You got some amazing pics of the fireworks! Mine weren’t half as good. But what do you expect from a cell phone?
I’m jealous of the exciting lives you New Yorkers seem to live. 🙂
Great pictures!! Thx for sharing them.
I want the recipe for that hashbrown casserole! I know my guys would love that one.
I heard the weather was perfect in NYC this weekend, and your pictures kinda prove it. Glad it was so beautiful for the 4th!
And welcome to the whole weekend thing. I’ve been doing it Michelle started, and it’s a lot of fun!
Thanks for stopping by! Here is the link for the Casserole. https://thespicylens.wordpress.com/2010/07/03/hashbrown-heaven/ Enjoy!
I am pretty certain that your pictures of the fireworks look even better than the way I saw them on tv. I will have to try the hashbrown casserole!
I tried the hashbrown casserole!!! It was super yummy, although it was more on the soupy side than casserole-y as I imagined it would be. What consistency does yours come out? Perhaps I should have baked it longer…hmm…
That’s not good. Try to cook it longer next time. Every oven is different. 🙂
