Joseph Leonard is one of my favorite cozy spots for brunch on the weekend. After a long week of work their avocado toast and a bloody mary hits the spot. Get there early or expect to wait, it's small and limited seating. Their sister restaurant Jeffreys Grocery across the street is also very good, but no expresso drinks which and I need my morning latte.

Interference Archive is a volunteer-run library, gallery, and archive of historical materials related to social and political activism and movements.

Long afternoon naps rarely happen here, sadly. But I never stop fantasizing.

Before you head to The Office NYC, stop at MAD - it is a beautiful museum with ever-changing exhibitions.

7 months before moving to New York I visited for the first time. I was immediately enraptured and felt a deep connection to the city that I had never experi- enced. It was in this massive hall at The Met that I decided I would be leaving Los Angeles and coming to NYC as soon as I possibly could.
