Tuesday Night Trivia at The Recovery Room

Enjoying some awesome chicken wings while trivia games are at play.

An active Mother's Day weekend

This past Saturday, I had a ticket for the annual Self Workout in the Park, held at Rumsey Field at Central Park. The sun came out, there were lots of giveaways, and the workouts by top-notch trainers from various gyms were amazing. So glad I didn't forget to go this time.

Exercising with our swag bags all around us

Lining up for swag

YES! That's Bob Harper, one of the trainers from The Biggest Loser, signing autographs for his new book.

Then Sunday, I went to my parents' house to spend time with Mom. I bought pie and ice cream. She relaxed all day; a rare occurrence. Everyone had a nice time.

It's all about eggs, hats, and outfits during a New York Easter

I know this is kind of late but it's still fun to see pictures of this year's Easter happenings.  People were ooh-ing and aah-ing over eggs.  Huge, brightly decorated eggs.  And they are giant eggs too.  About 268 scultpured eggs were created by artists and fashion designers, then hid all around the city as part of an Easter egg hunt, culminating in this exhibition that takes place all around Rockefeller Plaza.  Each egg will be sold, with the top 35 eggs that had the most bids being sold on auction by Sotheby's.  The rest of the eggs will go through an online bidding process.  The prices of the eggs range from $500 to $360,000.  All proceeds from the eggs will go to a charity.  The project was sponsored by...Faberge, of course!  What a great way for the jeweler to get some great publicity.  Faberge, of course, is known for its egg-themed jewelry creations that were made for the tsars of Russia.

New Yorkers and tourists had a great time being photographed with creative eggs and creatively-dressed New Yorkers.  The photos don't do the day any justice.

As soon as you come out of the subway, you knew that something special was going on -- just look at all those giant, decorated, eggs!
