Chips and queso, chips and guacamole (if you call it guac you sound like a stupid bird—GUAC GUAC), homemade hummus and pita, Trader Joe’s jalapeno spinach and artichoke dip with Trader Joe’s olive oil potato chips, pizza and ranch my affinity for which is on the record, bread and herbed olive oil… insane dipping behavior well I can’t be the arbiter of that. who can say I’m sure I’ll come up with some examples in my evil hater mind in a minute though

Unconventional snack combos

Not strange but like marinated anchovies on salt and pepper chips (crisps, if you’re nasty) with hummus or white tarama (!!!). or little red peppers stuffed with cheese spread on a rye cracker or, and this is a recent one, brie spread and muhammara dip on a digestive. Bonus if you add a little piece of cheddar too. I like snacks.

First of all welcome!!

- The grocery store franchise closest to you is possibly overcharging, so sometimes groceries become a sort of Halloween style I buy fruit from here, pantry things from here, etc etc - Lots of free things to do with a library card!! so many museums have discounted / free admission, the Met for example allows you to do a suggested donation when showing a library card - Obvious but tap water is 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻 no need to buy fancy water when going out to eat (and on this note I always carry around a reusable water bottle and one of those little electric fans bc the temperature outside never matches the subway) - There is no greater joy than getting a blanket and a book and people watching on Sheep Meadow/the Mall/ at any park - Explore the other boroughs!! - It’s so cliche but you can stumble upon so many fun restaurants, events, bars, shops, concerts, museums, etc etc by just strolling around - In tandem with the above I sometimes check the Time Out NY website, the New York Times daily newsletter, New York Magazine. The New Yorker, etc for inspiration and info about things going on - Citymapper is your bff for navigating the subway/bus/transit/walking/etc and is great with keeping you posted on any delays - On this note also always check an MTA app or citymapper etc to see if trains are running, can save you time and sanity - So many free concerts and events at places like the 92nd Street Y, in Bryant Park, SummerStage in Central Park - If you like TV you can go to tapings of shows or get paid to be part of the studio audience on websites like 1iota or Shadow Casting and Productions - Also can get lots of free things from pop ups that different brands host throughout the city, my roommate usually finds them on instagram - Join the free rewards program of your favorite coffee place / grocery store/ etc
