Best Cheap Date Night in NYC: The MET Museum

Dec 16, 2011 Author: Katie Lara | Filed under: Cheap Thrills, Lifestyle, Love and Travel, NYC Activities

20111216-132504.jpg

The Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC (The MET) is open until 9pm on Friday and Saturday nights right now. It's the best date night ever! We sipped wine in the atrium and were serenaded by a live pianist, cellist and violinist. The wine isn't cheap, the cheapest bottle I believe was about $48 but it's a spectacular Friday evening. They even have fun little bites to eat that were delicious. Curried pistachios! Didn't really complement the wine per se but they were yummy! 

Cheap Trick: The museum suggests you pay $25/pp. However, this is a suggestion. I don't know about you but that's a bit steep to pay once a month (which is how often we go). So instead I say 2 please and hand them whatever I feel like I can afford. I take comfort in the fact that I plan on being a donor when Im rich one day. 

Definitely head on over before other people discover this secret. Hopefully I'm the only one blogging about it :) It is truly the best cheap date in NYC to be had!

The Perfect Gift for the Holidays: Floral Arrangements and Christmas Hampers!

Dec 14, 2011 Author: Katie Lara | Filed under: Cheap Thrills, Holiday

 

 
The holidays are almost here!?! Yay! And that means Christmas vacation (with whatever days you have left from the year). Bring on the holiday parties! Bring on the champagne! Bring on the Christmas music! Bring on the Christmas flowers! After planning my wedding this year I have a new appreciation for beautiful bouquets. I never learned how difficult it is to actually make them look beautiful! One trip to the nearest bodega and $50 later taught me that not all flowers look good together no matter what you may think!
 
Although I can appreciate a nice bud, sometimes flowers can be predictable and personally they make me a little depressed when they wilt and die and I feel like I’m left with nothing but their memories (Think I’m a little overdramatic? *Shake your head yes). Sending a present yourself is such a pain too, it can be so expensive by the time you get it, cab it home, wrap it up, package it and drag it down to the post office. Ever wonder we drink so much during the holidays?! Interflora has some awesome gifts for her and him starting at just 19.99!
 
My favorite? The Christmas hampers! I especially love the Amore hamper! (Pictured above)  It’s a delightful gift in a beautifully-crafted wicker basket. It’s a glorious selection of treats including Belgian truffles, biscuits and chocolates.  The best part of course is the crisp champagne included to make a toast to your honey-pie, for any occasion! Bottoms up for a blistering Tuesday! …or Wednesday…or…
 
So this holiday season don’t disappoint your friends and family with just another gift card! Send over a box of chocolates, or personalized cupcakes or a beautiful hamper filled to the brim with delicious treats! And save yourself a trip to the post-office behind all the other suckers out there. Everyone loves flowers, chocolates or cupcakes!
 
Happy Holidays out there! What’s your favorite gift item to give!? Let us know in the comments!
