Going To The Rachael Ray Show!

So my girls and I got tickets to go to the Rachael Ray show and we weren't expecting what was yet to come. Usually, when we go to a show, we always expect to see audience seats. This was not the case for Rachael Ray. In fact, we happened to get tickets for the best show of the year, something we wouldn't have known until arrival. This episode will not be filmed until after New Year's because it's Rachael Ray's top 10 recipes of the year that fans have chosen. It was amazing. We all got 3 or 4 different dished of food, appetizers, deserts, and drinks. They removed all of the audience seats and replaced them with table and chairs. The set was very busy off camera because there were about 20 different waiters/waitresses clearing our tables and replacing new items onto them.

Rachael Ray herself? Amazing. While the camera was off, she would walk around and interact with us, as well as make jokes. She stayed in the audience the whole time actually. What was very noticeable, and admirable, is that she's very hands-on with her own TV show. I've been to shows where everybody in the world does the work for the host besides the host himself/herself. Rachael Ray is the exact opposite. You can tell she has a strong impact around those who work with her.



Wonderful show. The tickets are free, just like any other TV show. However, the wait is long. I had to wait about 3 months for these. Your best bet is to apply for them now. Great show.

The Nutcracker!

How do I explain the performance of The Nutcracker? Classic? Classic.



I've never actually got to sit down and enjoy ballet before. As a younger child, I used to dance many types of dances, but never went into depths with ballet, only being familiar with the prerequisites. If only I knew what I had been missing...I wish someone could have informed me. My girls & I: Nancy, Barbie, and Dai, enjoyed a fine Wednesday night at Lincoln Center watching the most beautiful show I have ever seen. The whole was done in silence, since it's ballet, and that added the profound beauty to the whole performance. This is a truly a must-watch show. It's one of those events you must put in your bucket list. This class is a mere matrix of the finer things in life. Pulchritude.

The 2011 Rockefeller Christmas Tree Lighting

It was a beautiful Wednesday night in New York City when my sister, Boryana, and I went out to go see the iconic Christmas Tree Lighting at Rockefeller Center. This has always been an event I watched on TV while growing up in Boston, so it has always been a dream of mine to see it in person. Seeing that I have much experience with attending largely populated NYC events, I was already prepared for the masses of crowds I was going to face once getting off of the F train at Rockefeller. Police were already miserable. Justin Bieber fans were at an abundance. Commuters were annoyed. In the depth of it all though, Bory & I were just determined to get as close to the tree as possble, and we did. :)




Merry Christmas

Madame Tussauds Wax Museum (NYC)!

My Bubeska & I went to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in Times Square recently and had a blast! I totally was not expecting the museum to be that huge and to see so many celebrities. I enjoyed myself so much, and I think I will let the pictures do most of the talking rather than write a lot.

There were too many celebrities/famous people there so we only took pictures with our favorites. I was looking forward to seeing Beyonce but I was so sad when one of the workers told me she was on "tour" at another Madame Tussauds Wax Museum, probably the one in England. The waxes look SO real.

This is a must-go. Take your girls out there, you can Google Madame's website and buy your tickets online. It is also a very convenient spot because we were able to meet up with the rest of our girls later and eat out very close by. There's plenty of places for you to dine out or other tourist attractions you can visit also. There will be no wasting of money. You will enjoy yourself.

Bob Marley

Madonna

Diddy & Biggie
