Guys, be happy....
I have something a lot better to blog about today.
WAY more exciting than our apartment complex, or little love letters, or "ohmygoshilovemyhusband"-ness.
Drumroll.....
We went to New York City this weekend, weeeeeeee!
And let me just tell you, it was as magical as ever.
After braving the streets with Casey at the wheel and Kimber as our captain,
(yes, we are absurd and drove the streets of NYC)
we found a parking spot (free after 7!), and hauled our hungry selves to the original Shake Shack in
Madison Square Park.
Let me just tell you....
it was every bit as good as we've heard.
And possibly even better than my life-long favorite In-N-Out.
Yes, west coasters. It was THAT delicious.
ALSO:
- We learned that ALL the restrooms are "customer only".
How do you solve that problem? Step 1: buy a rootbeer at Subway. Step 2: go potty in said Subway.
- waited THIRTY MINUTES for a stinkin' shake.
But then we got free fries for being patient customers, which shut me up real quick.
- practically ran through the streets in our efforts to see the elevated railroad gardens before they closed.
(I just made that name up, so probably don't try to google it.)
Also maybe I had the worst stomach ache of MY WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE right at this time. Bad news. And running around was even worse news.
- And finally, I was verbally assaulted by a smelly old guy dragging a rolly suitcase down the street.
2 things. First, a rolly suitcase? Isn't that opposite of intimidating?!
Second, he was shorter than me. Again. Zero percent intimidating.

Then yesterday, we spent the morning at church, and Christian was a sweetie and made breakfast-for-dinner when we got home because my stomach was still suffering from the previous night's shenanigans.
And THEN, in true Sunday laziness, we got in bed and turned on Lawrence of Arabia.
Old, quiet, tedious movie + a reeeaaaaally tired Brooke= BEST. NAP. EVER.
And now here we are.
On the cusp of a new week, in which HOPEFULLY I will get a job, Christian will make lots of sales, and this incessant rain will stop throwin' off our groove like that's its job.
Happy Monday, all!

LOVE Shake Shack. And the Concrete Jungle in the Madison Square Park (though the wall street concrete at the location downtown sounds pretty good too) Have FUN out there for me! There's nothing like NY.
Shake Shack is definitely worth the trip to New York. A belated congratulations and welcome to the east coast!
Brooke, thanks so much for visiting us at Shake Shack on your trip to NYC. So glad to hear you enjoyed it! Our team can't wait to see you again next time you're in the city!
-Brandy, Shake Shack
