Yesterday we had great picnic and today already celebrate one of the most kind and pure holiday! Cupcakes are ready, cards are done, eggs are painted! Happy Easter to all Christian Orthodox! ❤
On every second Manhattan street, especial in the summertime, you necessarily encounter flower shop and near with it bakery with flavored cupcakes and muffins. I often gladden my close homemade cupcakes, although can't say that I'm big fan baking, but in front of sweets by Magnolia Bakery and Little Brown Chocolate Bakery is impossible to resist. Perhaps these are my most favorite bakeries in New York city on a level with chain stores Dean & Deluca where you also can taste a big variety of sweets from cakes to handmade candies. However, in Dean & Deluca you always find fresh flowers in all colors of the rainbow. What give one more reason visit this place. If you are chocolate gourmet like me you definitely should jump into Belgian chocolate shop - Godiva. And of course I can't help from telling about french macarons cookies, which not so long ago confidently come to items of my favorite sweets. Find these in New York isn’t problem. For me I spotted cute Macoroon Cafe store, but if you never try this dainty I would advise start with the famous French patisserie Laduree, located on Madisson Ave.
Be sure sweet and fragrant life in New York is provided to you as well as a few of extra pounds ;)
Summer is near already. It is time to remember the good moments of the past.
Last summer I visited the Big Apple second time. New York is really never sleeps city of yellow cabs and always hurrying citizens. This city where you can be lonely but you never be alone. For 4 month there I got great experience, discovered new places and met interesting people. On this time I had enough time for get around whole Manhattan, visited more parks, museums and galleries, bypassed all the coffee shops and bakeries and had been on Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. I by right can call 2012 summer one of the best summer of my life and very hope come back in the Big City soon.
There are places to which you wanna back again and again. One of this is cafe "Happiness".
It's very bright, cozy and unbelievably cute coffee-shop where you can taste ginger butterscotch, strawberry chocolate and variety macarons cookies. "Happiness" is like a little paradise with angel's figurines around, with nice quotes on the walls and friendly service.
Here you can feel atmosphere of kindness,enjoy delicate coffee and homemade sweets.
The reason of my visit to the Russian capital were RFW and Volvo FW, so that more than half of my time occupied running to the castings, which usually ended with hot coffee in favorite Starbucks. In his spare time, we wandered through the central streets of Moscow, admiring the architectural creations of the era Russian baroque and classicism.
Unfortunately, the weather has not always been gracious to us, a refuge from the snow for us were malls and cafes, where we stayed for hours with my goodold friends.
This time I didn't make own cultural program, but aesthetically pleasing yet received, having been at the epicenter of the hottest Moscow events and enjoyed the fashionable atmosphere.
New acquaintances, warm meetings, exhausting clothings fittings, unpredictable weather, stylish guys, liters of hot cappuccino and kilograms of donuts - this is my Moscow Life.
