The Big Apple...dipped in chocolate?

So I went to New York this past Thanksgiving week. It was so much fun!! I got to see a Broadway show and go to the Rockettes' Christmas performance. Times Square was amazing, of course. There were huge, flashing billboards and TALL skyscrapers.

And there was a Hershey's store! Oh my goodness. The moment I walked in I was swept away by the luscious, beautiful smell of chocolate permeating the air! I bought a mug for my dad, two pens, and multiple bags of different kinds of chocolate. The newest one they've come out with is called Bliss, they were handing it out as people walked in the door. Well, I'm sure you can imagine why it was called Bliss...I bought a whole bag of the sinful stuff.

Then I marched with my band in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. That was fun. People were dancing to the music we played and doing the YMCA and yelling out "Ghost busters!"

All in all New York is quite spectacular, though I would never want to live there. Too much noise.
Anyway, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. Keep safe.

Ali out ;)

  1. We don't have Hershey's stores but I do remember when I was young we had a huge store that sold coffee beans. The smell of freshly grpund coffee was fabulous - every time we went past I used to ask my Mum to take me in there.
