MMTPT291~February 25~ New York City is the place to be

[philsmom]

Welcome to Teapot Tuesday MMTPT291
and the sisterhood of the traveling teaparty
for February 25, 2014

New York City is the place to be
for fun times, culture, or tea.

We're overdue for an exciting time.
I've selected a place that's oh so sublime.
So sit back and relax; it's time to dine.
Get ready for some good food and wine.
We'll sup tonight at the renowned Sardi's.
Our reservations at 8:00; so don't be tardy.
Look at all the caricatures on the wall.
I'll bet you can't name them all!

Wednesday's route takes us through Times Square. Steer clear of the Naked Cowboy because he's always bare.
No matter the season or inclement weather
he's playing his guitar in the altogether.
We're heading to the Russian Tea Room, it is so pretty.
Where else would teapotters go in New York City?

Then it's onto the Circle Line
for a panoramic view of an iconic skyline.
How many of our ancestors came through Ellis Island
hailing from mountains, coasts, lowlands or highlands? It's here they came in hopes of a good life leaving behind family, famine or strife.

On Thursday up to Rockefeller Plaza we go
to wish Jimmy Fallon good luck on the Tonight Show. It's back being broadcast from 30 Rock,
we've got tickets, ignore the line stretching around the block.

On Friday the Museum of Natural History is our activity
we'll see dinosaurs, treasures and lots of antiquities. The museum is so vast with so much to see
it's certainly worth the donated fee.
Saving time would be smart
so for lunch we'll stop at a hot dog cart.

Tonight we'll take in a Broadway show,
it will be nice to sit, since we've been on the go.
Afterwards, we'll head to the Carnegie Deli
that growling you hear is coming from my belly.
I know what will hit the spot, a potato knish, piping hot. Then, a delectable slice of Junior's cheesecake,
the ingredients are all natural, never fake.
It is so rich and creamy, a real delight,
forget the 42,000 calories in every bite.

I will be doing this also this week but I am going to be fashionably late as always. Had to take my son to do a speech screening test today so did not get time to work on mine.

Thanks for the fun Tickle challenge! I chose "New York Fashion Week" for the theme of my card. It was FUN to make and I hope the Teapotter who receives it will be pleased. I'll be browsing the gallery tonight or tomorrow. Cant wait to see the cards everyone made!

I couldn't find the "I'm late" thread, so here I am with my Manhattan Fabulous card.

[yellowrose46]

Well, this is a week late and much more than a dollar short! Being a country girl, I think of big cities as sophisticated, but I also think of New York city as The Big Apple. The photo shows was original thought.
Here is the link to the card I ended up with. It will be in the mail today.
