...dining at Lugo Caffe

merlot/cabernet livio felluga "vertigo", 2006 piemonte
...other than times square, midtown is another part of nyc that i really don't like to be caught in unless i'm traveling to and from my office. but after work yesterday a group of my co-workers and I landed at Lugo Caffe on 33rd and 8th for authentic italian food. great for groups and sampling a bunch of different things. i loved the gnocchi alla romana.
food = good
drinks = good
atomosphere = cool
service = good
...the afterwork sip definitely helped with my blah mood.

...sick & obsessed

This has been my life for the last 4 or so days. Nothing fab about it at all. Ugh. Drugs, and more drugs in my system. But despite being sick, I couldn't help but escape my bed to head to starbucks for a chocolate cupcake. Yes, I'm obsessed with them. And after the second Starbucks visit, I found them! Now back in bed with my cupcakes.
