November 30, 2015 // Astoria Holiday Market
It’s time now for Part Five of our holiday shopping series. This week, we have something as diverse and varied as one could hope to find in a normal retail store, only, well, better-made. That’s right, this time we’re looking at the Astoria Holiday Market. Bringing together artists, bakers, and designers, this fun-filled event is…
November 27, 2015 // Chelsea Market
Thanksgiving and Black Friday may be dominating this week, but that’s all the more reason to dive into Part Four of our ongoing series on locales for holiday shopping! This week, sound the Black Friday charge as we barrel headlong into Chelsea Market, and all the delicious goodies it has in store. A Market with…
November 25, 2015 // Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
Thanksgiving isn’t just fun and festive — it carries on an important historical tradition. It’s when we remember that fateful winter in 1621 when the colonists, under the rule of King George, nearly starved, but were then rescued by the native Americans, and how both cultures were attacked the next day by endless columns of…
November 24, 2015 // Thanksgiving Dinner
We’ve talked about how difficult it is to make Thanksgiving dinner. We’ve talked about the preparation, the family, the desserts… we’ve given you pretty much all the tips to be had. And yet, if you’ve just got a really busy life, it may still not be enough. Well don’t worry! At the 11th hour, we…
November 23, 2015 // Thanksgiving Desserts
“AAAAAHH!” has been more or less my though process lately in re: preparing for Thanksgiving dinner. Dessert has been especially problematic. Making 2-layered shelled truffles every year — especially when one forgets to write down one’s recipe because one apparently has a head thicker than a wall — takes a lot of time that we…
November 20, 2015 // Winter Village at Bryant Park
We’ve mentioned Bryant Park before. Specifically, we got a chance to talk about the wonderful Holiday Shops there! But even if you’re not in the mood to make a purchase, the Winter Village at Bryant Park is still a boatload of fun (Ha! Get it? Because we’re a ferry company, so we use boats to……
November 19, 2015 // Discovery Times Square Star Wars and the Power of Costume - The Exhibition
Everyone knows Star Wars. And with the possible exception of the prequels, everyone loves it! There’s even a new movie coming out, a sequel, which is very exciting. Fingers crossed that it’s not terrible! One of the things that makes Star Wars so compelling is the fantastic universe in which it takes place. From glowing…
November 18, 2015 // Union Square Holiday Market
It’s time for Part 3 of our holiday shopping installments, so everyone give a cheer! Why so many parts, you ask? Why to help you, dear reader, avoid all the confusion, chaos, and claustrophobia of being in a department store on December the 24th. No, you don’t have to say anything — you’re very welcome.…
November 17, 2015 // Arms and Armor Department at the Met
The clear notes of the trumpet echo down the line, its roar beckoning you onward. Nervous, you adjust your armor slightly, and begin the charge. For as long as human civilization has existed, so have weapons and armor. History was shaped by them, empires rose and fell… but that’s not all they did. Arms and…
November 16, 2015 // Thanksgiving Pie
With the Thanksgiving holiday fast approaching, the general excitement around this holiday is beginning to give way: first to logistic concerns, then to concern in general, and finally to all-out panic. Well, here’s one thing you can cross off your list. Get ready for New York’s top five pies! The Chocolate Babka Pie Served up…
