I can’t think of anything more random than marzipan, honestly. Well, I’m sure I could, given enough time, but I don’t really have the energy right now. It’s been gray in New York for days, and it isn’t even snowing. I would hope that we could at least get some snow if the sky is going to insist on serving up The Banshees of Inisherin day in and day out. I would love for a cozy blanket of snow to hug the city, if at all possible, so that I can once and for all feel justified in acting like a shy mammal. Instead, I’m trudging to dinner to the interminable accompaniment of Mother Earth’s out-of-tune viola of endless gray. Not that I didn’t love The Banshees of Inisherin. I did. At the risk of bringing down the mood—sorry—I’ll treat you with these delightful stories that will surely turn your mind to the possibilities. A trip to Tokyo perhaps, or a TikTok recipe, or a climate-neutral travel company that’ll bring you to Costa Rica, or an ice skating rink high above Manhattan, or a gorgeous luxury hotel in St. Kitts. That’s my time. I must finish dust-busting the sesame seeds out of my bed! Till tomorrow, [Ned Riseley, Senior Copywriter]( [ [( travel [] [The Neon, the Nature, the Noodles: A Trip to Tokyo]( Tokyo is a beautiful cacophony of culture, food, history, and excitement, where neon-lit urban streets meet ancient temples meet crowded bars and beyond. Here’s our definitive guide to visiting this luminescent wonderland. Whether you want to wander past the restaurants in Omoide Yokocho (a.k.a. “Piss Alley") or cleanse yourself in the bamboo forests of the Arashiyama district in Kyoto or play a video game in Akihabara, we’ve got the itinerary you need. I can’t say I’m chomping at the bit to visit “Piss Alley,” but I will admit I’m curious how it got its name.

I’m being a little playfully facetious, of course, but you know what? There are a ton of amazing recipes on TikTok, if you know where to look, and Thrillist does. Connect with the zeitgeist, and feed your friends and family some delicious harissa tomato gnocchi, mini creme brulee donuts, or any of the other gastronomical delights on this list. These recipes aren’t unthinkable and controversial for the likes and views, they’re just delicious.

Here’s a way of seeing the world that’s not as bad. Aurora Expeditions is a travel company that is committed to climate-neutral travel through sailing.

You’ll be able to glide (or in my case, flail your arms and shimmy while praying not to fall) across the ice with beautiful views of the city below. Dust off your little gold ice dancing outfit and head to Hudson Yards for a winter experience unlike any other.
