Life changing experiences - New York, NY

Today I was reminded of one of my most favorite life changing experiences -  Stew Leonard's.  When you live in NYC you really come to appreciate grocery stores and Stew Leonard's is the ULTIMATE grocery store.  It is packed full of amazing produce, homemade deliciousness, and animatronics!  I owe so much of my happiness to Amber Blakesly, my friend who first introduced me to Stew Leonard's.

Today I ventured out to the Yonkers location with my friends Alisa, Jenna, Kevin, and Maria.  I love taking newbies to this place because it's so magical.  It was a packed house today and there were some rude and pushy people out and about.... but all in all I think Kevin and Maria embraced Stew's for all that it was worth.  Oh, and the best thing about this location is that there is a Costco right next door.  So, of course we went shopping there too!

Jenna discovered the lying down game this week http://weburbanist.com/2010/11/10/parkour-for-lazies-the-bizarre-british-lying-down-game/ and became totally obsessed.  So we took a few pics of Alisa and Jenna lying down in random places.  Enjoy!

    And why have you never taken us to Stew Leonard's? I'm totally offended. Are you trying to lure us back to NYC with this post and your description of Christmas in The Big Apple? I have even been to Yonkers and never been to Stew Leonard's.

    I'll make you a deal. You move to SLC so we get to see you more often and Dad, Katie, you and I will go to NYC for Christmas next year since the boys will be with their in-laws. Now this is a deal you can't refuse. (On Amtrak, of course!)

    P.S. Your friends are weird! I'm going to offer Dad a hundred dollars if he will lay down in front of the entrance to Broulim's -- for thirty minutes!

    I love Stew Leonard's too--the singing bananas are the best!
