Over the weekend Mike Toub (hubby), Kory Aversa (bff) and I headed to NYC on an invite from Tony Luke, Jr to attend the premiere screening of his new Spike TV show “FrankenFood”
at TAO downtown. We got to enjoy some of the food that was going to appear on the show and it was delicious.

A nice dry spot to look at Today with Kathie Lee and Hoda
The weather was wicked in the morning, but I saw a lot of beauty around me.
When we went to pick up our car at Myers Parking Garage, they told us they lost our car. That was the most bizarre thing to happen to moi. After about 30 minutes they found it after Mike gave them our extra key so they could go through the 7 story garage and chirp the car. I married the right guy.
Much nicer later when we were leaving town.
We stopped at Magnolia Bakery, made famous by Sarah Jessica Parker and friends in Sex and the City. When I first moved to NYC 8 years ago, I had to try the cupcakes made famous on the show. They were terrible.
Kory Aversa saw the shop and was so excited to try a cupcake. I felt validated when he finished and said “That was the worst cupcake I ever had.” It just goes to show you how influential good PR is.
