SPRING IS TOO GORGEOUS-can’t waste this time!

April 8, 2012/in Date Ideas, NYC /by CMB

HAPPY EASTER! What a wonderful weekend it was with gorgeous weather. Even though Easter weekend is coming to an end here are some things you can do this upcoming week.

PICTURE PERFECT

When the spring breeze gently blows, cherry blossom petals flutter and makes a magical scenery that makes you wonder if it’s lightly snowing on a spring day. One of the beauties of spring is definitely the amazing site cherry blossom trees create. Brooklyn Botanic Garden is the place to go to enjoy the spring breeze and walk through the shower of pink petals falling gently from the trees. Spring is here but will be gone soon, so don’t miss this year’s cherry blossom beauty.

WHERE: Brooklyn Botanic Garden (1000 Washington Ave.)

WHEN: Open until April 29 but sooner the better before the petals all fall off!

She is “an elegant, deeply musical interpreter who strikes and inspired balance of head and heart in everything she plays,” (Chicago Tribune). She will be performing 3 sonatas written only 2 months before the composer, Schubert’s death.Is it just me, or does she just go so well with the cherry blossoms and the beauty of spring?

TIME TO SPLURGE

If you’ve been to and loved, yet want a change of scenery from Eleven Madison, The NoMad may be perfect for you. It’s runned by Chef Daniel Humm and Will Guidara…the guys who run Eleven Madison so you know what to expect. The NoMad has 5 separate, elegant rooms and features dishes of rabbit spaetzie, suckling pig and chicken-for-two with black truffles and foie gras (im already hungry just by listing these) .. Warning though. You’re bill’s not going to be too light so be ready for it!

WHERE: The NoMad (1170 Broadway, near 28th Street)

Vintner Wine Market

location: 9th Ave between 46th and 47th Street <Hell’s Kitchen>
My favorite neighborhood hangout spot!
Very casual neighborhood store but you’ll be surprised with the deliciousness it offers! Gourmet sandwiches, salads, fondue and the best part is that they have craft beers on tap.
The owner is beyond friendly and remembers what you ordered in the past and what you actually enjoyed having. Great service, great food and great place to go with either your friends or even for a casual date.
My favorite: Turkey sandwich with brie, lettuce, tomato & honey mustard ($8.99)

A friendly hello

February 27, 2012/in CMB Says, From the founders /by CMB


How can I complain when we have 50 something degree weather in mid February? As I was strolling around west village the other day- more like speed walking around town trying to get things done on time, I couldn’t help but notice all the show windows were filled with BRIGHT colors. It hit me then that spring is right around the corner!
While I was plowing through each day to live my life to the fullest,  Spring has snuck up on me…but what a pleasant surprise it was.
I’ll give you the truth–
I’m not a dating expert with a Ph.D in what, Psychology? is that what most dating experts have?
I’m not a sex columnist who can suggest 1000 different sex positions.
But, I’m a young woman living in the city who’s trying to figure things out for herself like everyone else here. This city is bachelor’s heaven with overflowing beautiful and smart women and I’m trying to survive amongst them! Hopefully I won’t be brutally crushed under their Louboutin heels, but hey I have a pair too. I see how this city can be awesome for singles but also see how great it would be for couples. My girlfriend and I always say, “This place is so cute, you should come here when you’re on a date,” or “I want to come here with a guy, not you!”
There’s definitely a hint of bitterness but more of excitement in knowing there’s more to come for us singles in New York. So there it is- we’re all in this together in finding great company.
Let’s see how spring brightens up our black/gray wardrobe and hope for more. Grab a cup of coffee, relax and enjoy the ride.

Valentine's Day or Single Awareness Day?

February 11, 2012/in CMB Says, From the founders /by CMB

It’s that time of the year again. You may have noticed a surge in people joining online dating sites and studies on online dating lately. It’s no coincidence that it’s around Valentine’s Day, perhaps the most polarizing holiday in the Western world. Either it’s the most romantic or the most depressing day of the year. Like me, there are a lot of people out there stuck without a date. That shouldn’t bring you down, though. It all really comes down if you think the glass is half empty or half full.
For those optimistic about finding a date at the last minute, Valentine’s Day is only a few days away and, although it does not seem like a lot of time, you may still get lucky. Single people don’t go away over night. There are still some subtle things you can do to get a date, even if it isn’t on V-Day. Subtle cues can attract a date from a mile away. Wearing red is not only lucky but has been proven to attract a member of the opposite sex (or the same-sex as well, depending how you roll). If you take the person you’re interested in to a place with a higher temperature, that can also increase your chances of having a successful date.
Then again, you shouldn’t put pressure on yourself. Don’t let it get to you that you don’t have a date. Take some time on V-Day to focus on the most important person of all: yourself. It sounds cheesy but depression never really helped anyone. In fact, depression can lead to an awful lot of health complications down the line. Instead of wallowing in sorrow and playing Aimee Mann songs, go out and live a little. In the grand scheme of things, V-Day is just another day of the week, albeit with some baggage attached to it.
Like the proverbial glass of water, it really is what you make of it. Personally, I believe that Valentine’s Day is a manufactured holiday, much like that terrible movie that came out a couple of years ago. You don’t need a day to tell you that you have to find someone to love or treat the one you love to a great night out. For my fellow single people out there, you aren’t forever alone when everyone else is in the same boat. For those that have a date, I wish you luck in getting a dinner reservation if you haven’t booked one by now.
