my girl, lindzay came to visit!! she's one of my really good friends that i went to cameo with. i just love her. she recently moved back to north carolina so i haven't seen her for almost 6 months. we had a really good time. we went to canal street (cheap designer jewelry, purses etc.) and i got myself a hat that i die for! it is so freakin cute i want to wear it everyday, some earrings and a ring that i also die for! i only allotted myself $20 because i just knew that i could go wild spending money down there... i'll be back soon tho :) for dinner we went to lombardi's pizza, it's america's first pizzeria and has been featured both on the cooking channel and food network. we just got the original margherita pizza with a side of meatballs. it was SO good! perfect thinness, perfect crust, perfect sauce.. pretty much just pure perfection. the meatballs were really super good too. they were bite sized which made them much mo betta. we then met christi and heather at graziellas and got some affogato's aka coffee float aka heaven in a glass. it's just vanilla ice cream with espresso poured over the top... simple yet delightful. because grazi's is in brooklyn we decided to walk back over the brooklyn bridge at night time. the views were incredible! i definitely recommend going across the bridge at night, much cooler. since lindz was in town, we wanted her to experience some more "touristy" things. we stopped at grand central station (which was absolutely beautiful) then walked to times square. we went to sephora and played with makeup, the hershey's store where they have the worlds largest chocolate bar, weighing in at 5, yes, 5 lbs! they also have a giant reese's peanut butter cup that i think are a pound each, which look so good but i just can't bring myself to eat or buy one for that matter.. the disney store that had an ariel doll that i WILL have soon, and the famous roxy's delicatessen for some cheesecake. their cheesecake was HUGE! we split a strawberry topped plain cheesecake and a raspberry hazlenut chocolate chunk. they were ok but i'm still on the lookout for better :) as far as i'm concerned, the cheesecake factory has got the cheesecake makin down pretty darned good. as we were walking around times square there were some guys that had snakes and as soon as i saw this yellow one i thought of britney spears and i just HAD to hold this snake!! you know me and my britney... i LOVE her!!
i heart britney!
now all i need is the costume :)
she's so excited!
i am too!

the next day we really wanted to go to the beach but the weather was getting cloudy so we decided to take the free ferry from manhattan to staten island that goes past the statue of liberty. then we went and chilled in madison square park for a little bit. it was so much fun to have lindzay here... now, who's my next visitor!? :)
