All my friends keep moving to San Francisco. Now I understand why.<br />
<ol>
<li>It's always sunny, but never hot.</li>
<li>There are dogs everywhere.</li>
<li>There are more donut shops than cupcake shops. </li>

Hong Kong is full of delicious treats. The egg tarts are a must-try snack. They taste like mini quiches with a hint of sugar. But the very best meal I had was a series of toasts topped with condensed milk, butter and peanut butter. No matter what you do, don't leave the city without trying the "Hong Kong french toast," which is essentially a donut shaped like a piece of toast that is drenched in syrup. YUM! </div>

Hong Kong is also home to the world's largest, bronze, sitting <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tian_Tan_Buddha">Buddha</a>. I took a little day trip to visit him, and it was very worth it. You can take the subway to the base of the mountain where you can catch a ride in a glass-bottom cable car to visit the Buddha. Visiting the statue feels more like going to a theme park rather than a tranquil journey, but it's still fun nonetheless. (There is a Starbucks at the top of the mountain if you get thirsty.) </div>

It was cold in New York, and then we decided to go somewhere even colder for a long weekend. Despite the high of 12 degrees, Cape Cod is gorgeous in the winter. On Martha's Vineyard there is a community of summer homes that look like ginger bread houses and an ice cream shop every 500 yards. Unfortunately the ice cream shops are not open in the winter. megan pantshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00994336505054209575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664276219658561603.post-24910915390364522782014-01-28T11:50:00.005-05:002014-01-28T11:50:54.040-05:00Following the Sun<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My Grandma makes frosted sugar cookies in every shape for every holiday. Alas, she is getting too old to bake hundreds of cookies for her grandchildren multiple times a year, so I decided to try to bake my own. Of course, I cheated on the dough and used a sugar cookie mix from Trader Joe's. All went well except for making the mistake of using cake frosting for the men's black hats. It never dried. Whoopsies. megan pantshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00994336505054209575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664276219658561603.post-44960944558215142552013-12-23T17:46:00.000-05:002013-12-23T17:47:15.635-05:00When friends visit. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is a majestic eagle statue in <a href="http://www.nycgovparks.org/parks/FortGreenePark">Fort Greene Park</a>. One of the best parts about having visitors (aside from seeing them of course) is that they motivate you to visit your own city. Brooklyn is full of eagle statutes.

<a href="http://6thstreetdesignschool.blogspot.com/2013/10/diy-falling-leaves-garland.html">This glitter leaf DIY project </a>has been making the rounds on
Pinterest, and it was just too sparkly not to give it a try. This tutorial uses
fake leaves from the Dollar Tree, but that just didn’t feel right to my
roommate and me, so we made our own version using real leaves. <br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<u><b>How to make glitter leaves:</b></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Step 1:</b> Gather leaves. Try to get leaves that aren’t too
crispy or too fresh. A leaf that has just fallen to the ground works best.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Step 2:</b> Microwave your leaves. The problem with using real
leaves instead of fake ones, is that as leaves dry up they also curl. To
prevent this, we <a href="http://www.wikihow.com/Press-Flowers-and-Leaves">dried our leaves out in the microwave</a>. To do so, you’ll need a
flat, microwave-safe surface that you can place on top of your leaves when you microwave
them so they come out flat. Before you microwave your leaf, wrap it in a paper towel,
then place the flat heavy object on top of it and cook the leaf in 30 second
intervals until it feels dry. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Step 3:</b> Coat the leaves in Mod Podge. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Step 4:</b> Pour glitter over the leaf.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Step 5:</b> Shake off excess glitter, and let your creation dry.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Step 6:</b> Punch holes in your leaves, and hang them for display.

I tested out <a href="http://popularpaleo.com/2013/07/08/lemon-bars/">this recipe </a>for paleo-friendly lemon bars. The recipe calls for nine total eggs. NINE! Needless to say with that many eggs on the line, I was bound to get a little shell in mix. Mmm crunchy.

I finally ventured into Gowanus to try Four and<a href="http://birdsblack.com/"> Twenty Blackbirds Pie Shop</a>. It was so worth the three train transfers and two avenue walk in 100 degree heat. I had the Balsamic Strawberry Pie, which was delightful.<br />
<br />
Before ordering I awkwardly asked the pie man if it was a savory pie. He assured me that it was the exact opposite and that balsamic is used to make the strawberries pop. He was right. All I tasted was sweet, sweet strawberries. I also enjoyed a mint iced tea with my pie. The only downside to this place is that it's so awesome that everyone wants to hang out there, leaving little room to sit. Pies to go tastes just as good. <br />
<br />
I brought my newly acquired Google Glass with me, thinking I would document my pie tasting #throughglass. However, I was too embarrassed to wear it. I put it on outside of the pie shop and took some horribly framed photos of the outside of the shop, gave up in the heat and came home to take the one above shot of my pie in its box. Next time Google Glass, next time.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
The<a href="http://www.moma.org/visit/calendar/exhibitions/1380"> MoMa Rain Room </a>is a lot like what it sounds like, it’s a room
full of rain. However, unlike a normal room full of rain, as you walk through this room, you don't get wet. Some how they’ve rigged all these sensors so that the rain knows where
you are standing and won’t rain on you. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The only downside to The Rain Room is the wait. The first
time I tried to see this exhibit, the estimated wait time for general admission
was 6 hours. Holy moly! Luckily, season pass holders can wait in a priority
line which opens an hour before general admission starts.(I am not a season pass holder, but my dear boyfriend just so happens to be friends with someone who is.) Even waiting in the priority
line took about two hours, but it was worth it. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><br />
<br />
Be sure to visit with a friend; half of the
fun once is taking pictures in front of the giant spotlight. Those things that look like lasers in the photos above are actually the rain. Neat right? The exhibit closes July 28th, so go see it now please. </div>

It's true; <a href="http://thecolorrun.com/">The Color Run </a>is the happiest 5k. The best part about the color run, is that it's totally ok to walk. In fact, there are places to stop and take your photo along the race course. No other 5k does that. After you finish, you get to dance, eat popsicles and throw color in the air. It's great. If you run, I highly suggest you wear sunglasses to keep the lovely color out of your eyes. megan pantshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00994336505054209575noreply@blogger.com0
