NYC: A morning at MoMA

MoMA, Museum of Modern Art, New York

Yesterday, it was raining most of the time, but it didn’t really matter since we had decided to spend the morning at MoMA. I’m not really a museum kind of girl, and I usually avoid them when I’m on vacation, but regarding modern art, it’s another case.

I don’t know much about it, but I enjoy walking around all the paintings, movies and installations and just experience how certain pieces manage to fascinate, inspire and sometimes even offend. I could easily have spent a whole day at MoMA, but we only had a couple of hours before our table reservation at The Modern.

We had an amazing 3-course lunch in the beautiful Dining Room right next to The Sculpture Garden starting with tuna, salmon and scallops. The main course was an incredibly tender tenderloin and a rich chocolate dessert rounded off the super delicious meal.

Ninja Air Fryer 4-in-1 Pro
$119.99

I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They're easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They’re easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I like that you don’t have to fuss around with settings to get good food out of it. Vegetables turn out crisp without drying out, and chicken comes out juicy with a nice golden crust. It’s one of those kitchen gadgets that actually lives up to the hype and ends up being used all the time.

Ninja NC301 CREAMi Ice Cream Maker
$199.95

The Ninja CREAMi is hands down the best ice cream maker I’ve tried. What I really like is the texture. The ice cream comes out so smooth and creamy, better than anything I’ve managed with other machines. It’s also incredibly easy to use: you prep your base, freeze it overnight, and then let the CREAMi do the rest. With several one-touch programs, you can make ice cream, sorbet, gelato, milkshakes, or even smoothie bowls, and the re-spin function lets you make your batch softer if you prefer. You can go all in with decadent gelato, or make lighter, low-sugar or dairy-free versions. You can even add your favorite mix-ins like chocolate, nuts, or fruit to make it your own. It’s a fun, reliable machine that makes experimenting with flavors at home so much more exciting.
