Fuel Before Freezing

Dear Lara,

My friends and I made a bold decision last night: we were going to try an ice bar. An ice bar, for those of you who don't know, is a room where EVERYTHING is made of ice (down to the rectangles of ice they put the drinks in). I was excited to try the space-themed drinks the website suggested this particular ice bar served, so I didn't want to feel too full going there. Therefore, I opted for a simple pre-freezing snack of my absolute new favorite obsession: the banana toast.

Looking at this makes me hungry all over again

Banana Toast:

1 slice whole wheat/whole grain bread (toasted, of course)

2 tablespoons of peanut butter (my favorite is crunchy, I adore anything with a good crunch)

1/2 banana, sliced

Drizzle of honey on top!

One of the many icy decorations, and the room kept changing the wall colors!

Cuddled and warm in my "below zero" poncho

The ice bar was really fun, it was an interesting experience to be in 60 degree weather one moment and then freezing the next! It was actually located inside of a restaurant, so after 20 minutes I was feeling a little frigid and headed inside the restaurant to wait for my friends and defrost. Definitely worth doing once, but maybe not too many more times if I want to keep my fingers.

How's the NYC life treating you?

xoxo,
Kim
