To no surprise, I really lack self-control when it comes to sweets. I can never have just one cookie or a bite of cake. I always overindulge in sweets and end up feeling sick. It’s a vicious cycle and I never learn my lesson. I am the kind of person where I either eat whatever I want or I follow a strict diet that doesn’t allow me to have sweets.

So when I was planning our trip to New York City, of course, I had to do some research on thrift stores. We went to both thrift stores and vintage shops while we were in New York City, but I found that a lot of the vintage shops offered truly vintage stuff, like stuff from the 60’s and 70’s at a much higher price point.

7 Sweet Spots in New York City
My recent trip to New York City was filled with lots of tasty foods and if you know me at all, you know I am all about the sweets! I did a lot of research before going to New York City and am happy to share with you all, my favorite sweet spots in the city. Trust me, there were a couple of spots that I wanted to go to but because I can only eat so many cookies before going into a diabetic coma, I didn’t get a chance to go to them.
