During all my life I have always admired New York. First
for being a great city and second of all for its shows
and activities which are all awesome.
Christmas is a time of peace and unity in most of the
world and it´s celebrated in lots of different ways. So
now I will present to you smo places you can visit if you
celebrate christmas in New York.
First up
The Rockefeller Center is concidered the
hearth of christmas on New York. Its best
ice rink has existed for over 79 years and its
decorated christmas tree has been a
tradition for over 84 years.
If you are that kind of person that loves
colorful shows you might enjoy visiing
the Radio City Auditory, where they
celebrate with a colorful christmas
fest and fireworks.
If you enjoy spending time with nature I
personaly recommend visiting Central
Park, on the southeast corner you can
find over 100 stores which offer
almost everything you can imagine. If
you stroll around the park you will
encounter 2 Ice rinks and trips in carts
pulled by horses.

If you wander arround in New York
at christmas´ night there will be
world stars presenting showcases
and a lot of different celebrations.
You could also just
stay with your family
and/or friends at your
house or hotel and
make personal
celebration and spend
time with the ones you
love.
But whichever you choose you will have a great time and
you will surely remember this time of the year because
most of the times it reunites families or friends.

The best hotels in New York
With hundreds of hotels across Manhattan's many
neighborhoods, it can be challenging to sift through
the endless options to find that perfect gem of a place,
especially if you're visiting from out of town. Here, we
have rounded up the best luxury accommodations.
The Mark
The spot where many a celebrity gets ready before the
Met Gala each year, The Mark is flawlessly elegant in its
Jacques Grange-designed interiors and Upper East Side
luxury. Grab one of the hotel's custom bikes or hop in a
black-and-white striped pedicab to hit up the nearby 5th
Avenue boutiques—though you don't have to leave the
hotel for the finest in high-end shopping, pampering and
dining. The Mark offers room service prepared by
renowned chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, sweet
treats by Ladurée, a Frédéric Fekkai salon, and 24/7
access to Bergdorf Goodman for its penthouse guests.

The Carlyle
This storied establishment is an icon of elegance and
luxury in the city. A timeless capsule of classic New
York, the Carlyle oozes 1930s glamour from the
moment you step into the black-and-white marbled lobby.
Guests are treated to the utmost in amenities and
services, including in-house boutiques for everything
from florists to art galleries and nearby designer
shopping at Vera Wang, Perrin Paris and more. The
rooms are impeccably appointed with posh decor and
deluxe bathrooms come fully stocked with a generous
range of Kiehl's bath products.

GYPSY ARM
Ingredients
For the sponge cake: 4 eggs (size L)
120 g. of sieved flour
120 g. of sugar
½ Royal baking powder (8 g.)
fine salt (a pinch)
For the cream: 4 yolks (eggs L)
100 g of sugar
50 g of Maizena (fine corn flour)
500 ml. of whole milk
½ skin of a lemon and 1 cinnamon stick
PROCESS
Preparation of the pastry cream. Gypsy arm filling
Let's start by making the pastry cream filling, so you can have time to cool
down and get consistency while we bake the cake.
Wash the lemon and peel half of its skin, ensuring that no white part inside,
as this gives us bitterness. Of the half liter of milk, we reserve a little less
than one glass (150 ml.). Put the rest to heat in a saucepan, until it is about
to boil.
Remove from heat, and add cinnamon sticks and lemon peel. Let it cool and
infuse the milk, for 10-15 minutes. We will give a nice flavor to the custard.
In the reserved milk glass, add the cornstarch and stir well, using a few
rods or a fork. We want it to dissolve completely and not have lumps.
In a bowl, we separate the yolks from the whites, and these are reserved
for the final decoration. Tapadlas with plastic film and put them in the
fridge. We add the sugar to the yolks and beat until frothed. Now we
throw the glass of milk with the corn flour, and mix well with the rods,
without lumps.

The milk that was infused, the colamos and we went to a dipper (we would
be the same from the beginning). Heat to medium heat, and as soon as it takes
temperature, we are adding the mixture little by little, stirring without
stop. We will see how it will go taking "body" and thickening. It is important
that it never come to a boil, so that we do not miss a point. We reserve and
let cool, so that it acquires the final texture.
Preparation of sponge cake for the gypsy arm
Of the 4 eggs, we separate the yolks from the whites. We mount the whites
with metal rods, with a pinch of salt.
Better if you use an electrical device with the rod tool, otherwise you will
leave your arm in it. Once in its point, well fluffy, we add the beaten yolks.
Mix until you get a homogeneous cream.
Now it's the turn of the sugar, which we are gradually throwing into the
bowl, while we beat.
Mix the yeast with the flour and add to the cream, without stopping to mix.
We will get a homogeneous cream without lumps.
We preheat oven to 180º C for 5 minutes. We lined a baking tray with
sulfurized paper (baking paper).
Pour the cream over it and bake for 10-12 minutes in the center position,
with heat up-down.

WINTER FASHION 2018
There's no time like the present to fall back in love with your local
shopping mall (it's warm, there's a food court, etcetera, etcetera). In the
age of online shopping, it's oddly easy to forget that there's an option
beyond clicking and waiting, but trolling the mall is a high schoolthrowback
worth revisiting, especially if you neglected to plan ahead and
order the perfect thing for New Year's Eve. We've shopped out five
different outfits—all centered around one perfectly festive dress—that
you can most likely find at a shopping-plex near you.
Dress + Faux Fur
Faux-fur wraps and ankle-tie heels feel super glamorous next to anything
metallic, but work well with casual denim post-NYE
Dress + Sweater
Pull a slouchy knit on over the dress for a look that feels more like
separates (and dress down the shine with sneakers.

Dress + Blazer
A tailored blazer provides the sort of sharpness that can turn any dress
black-tie formal.
Dress + Bodysuit
Layer a bodysuit underneath for a little bit of warmth (the leotard-like fit
won't give you the wrinkles or bumps a tee would).
