A Bryant Park Sunday



Even though I work on Sundays, the day still feels like it did when I was in school; relaxed and casual. To go on that theme, last Sunday I was craving a cup of soup and calmness so I took myself to Bryant Park and enjoyed the sites. There was a jazz band playing, small birds searching for food, a wedding reception, and the perfect people watching seat. 

Bryant Park has a reading "room" area that has books and magazines you can borrow for free

This birdie was begging me for some bread

Chess games are all over the park, you can walk up and play for free

A nice mix of colors

The perfect people watching seat

A beautifully bright sari

Really cool hair

A beautiful wedding being held at the Bryant Park Grill.  

This lady was trying to get the best picture possible of her friend.


This little cutie was excited to get his walk on

Pretty colors

And to finish the nice dinner break off, I picked up a Starbucks caramel apple cider, my favorite fall drink!

Smores Crescent Rolls!

I was browsing Pinterest's food section and kept seeing an image for a crescent roll filled with marshmallows and chocolate chips. I knew I shouldn't but I had to try it, so today was the lucky day, no big errands to run, no appointments, and I plan on seeing a gym later and take my leftovers to work. 

These are the 3 ingredients, just marshmallows, chocolate chunks , and crescent rolls! Easy Peasy!
The crescent dough straight outta the tube

Put more chocolate in yours then I did, once baked you're gonna wish you had more!
The rolling "technique"
Made into the crescent shape

Ready for the oven!

12-15 minutes bake time

Fresh outta the oven, marshmallows have melted and hopefully it tastes good!

Paired with some fresh berries it made a sweet breakfast

There's the chocolate!

As I stated before I would have definitely put more chocolate in the crescent rolls  mainly because the marshmallows melt and you cant taste them AT ALL in the bread, so really there kinda was no point in putting them in the rolls at all. The rolls were buttery and pulled apart so beautifully but more chocolate would have definitely made it over the top for a chocolate freak like me.
