CA Peep Time

I finally got some time with one of my friends from California. My friend Matt brought his daughter out to the big city. We had a chance to catch up yesterday and hang in Central Park where I got to meet a friend of his that lives here, Derek. Always good to have new friends in a city this size. I wandered the park in search of them and took some shots while walking. And let me tell you Central Park is Humongous!!





I finally found them at the Boathouse where Matt and his daughter were rowing around the lake so I met up with Derek and we sat on the patio and waited for them to get back. The weather was perfect and once they returned we lounged and chatted and people watched for at least another hour.






From there we bid adieu to Derek until later and we strolled through the park before going back to Matt's hotel so Halia could have a snack. He found a great little place in the Upper West Side. After seeing it I would definitely recommend it to out of town guests. He got an upgrade and had a ridiculous balcony with amazing views.







We left there and met up with Derek at Patsy's for some original New York Pizza and let me tell you it was Delish. Mom would be proud. And as if Pizza wasn't enough, we headed down to Little Italy to Ferrara's for Cannoli's. Yummmmy.





It was a good day.

Panama Day 5-Howard

This was the most surreal hour and a half of the whole trip. We made our way out to Howard Air Force Base (which is no longer an AFB) and found our old house. Just looking at the photos I get emotional all over again. Not that I broke down crying or anything but it was really weird standing in a place that holds so many memories.  Here is me freaking out that we found it!!! Our old Street! Coffey Avenue! Exploring the old digs!  This stairwell led up to the door in the kitchen. It was a little creepy so I just filmed from where I was.  :-/ I don't do creepy. Here we are in front of 60A Coffey Ave!    That "hill" behind my mom seemed so much bigger when we lived there. I remember my dog running down it and tripping, which led to a head over heels tumble that still makes me laugh when I think of it. And that fence used to be a favorite spot for three toed sloths to hang out.  While I don't r

June 18-It's a good day

There is nothing like an early morning run to give you a total attitude shift. The birds are singing, people are walking their dogs, houses are waking up and all seems right with the world. I know, I know, there are a few of you who will argue vehemently that running, at 6am no less, is not exactly what you would call a good time. But I beg to differ and I challenge you to try it. Just once. I am not going to lie, it's been a tough week. Work has been busy, I had a free lance job that had me up until 3 am on Tuesday night, I have been on an emotional roller coaster and I have had moments where I just wanted to crawl under my covers and hide. When my alarm went off this morning, I was surprisingly not exhausted.  I made a mental note that I would just take an easy run. Start out slow. I was scheduled to run 35 minutes but since my run yesterday got ixsnayed (how exactly do you spell that?) I decided to try to go a little longer so I don't pay for it on my run Saturday. SO I hopp

Henri Bendel

I am in Love. It happened quite suddenly although I met him years ago. We rekindled our affair on Fashion's night out a few months back and now it's official, I am head over heels. :) His name is Henri and I love everything about him. I want to be a Bendel Girl for the rest of my life. All illustrations by Izak Zenou who does Incredibly beautiful work. Oh to be THAT talented....swoon.
