My good friend Juliet and I met for dinner Tuesday night at a fabulous italian restaurant in the East Village, Three of Cups. The food and service was excellent - we both had the risotto special, and wow, what a dish! After dinner we took a nice walk around the village and saw lots of lovely community gardens, including one in which a dinner for about 20 people was being held, with the food all locally produced! It was wonderful to catch up with Juliet.

JourneyDance!

Wow, what a great JourneyDance class I went to last Friday at a Union Square yoga studio - Toni Bergins, the creator of JourneyDance, led the class, and as usual, it was super energizing and fantastic! For more info, go to:

my pro golfer!

Peter headed out for a day on the golf course at Eisenhower Park a couple of weeks ago - weather was great, and he was sporting his new golf shirt and hat!

Visit with mom

We had a nice visit with my mom - she's doing very well for her age - she'll be 80 in August!! God bless you, mom, we love you very much!

Cement repairs!

We had our first experience mixing and applying cement, to repair a crack on the side of the house - went very well, thanks to "quickcrete" - add a bit of water, and voila, you have cement ready to use!

Fun barbecue!

We had a great Memorial Day barbecue - the weather was warm and sunny and everyone enjoyed the food Peter prepared on the grill!

so handsome in a suit!

Here is a recent photo of Peter in a suit - he's now wearing a 15 1/2 dress shirt, down from 16 1/2 - so proud of him!

Espresso Brewing!

Peter got his first espresso machine on a closeout at Fortunoffs - 40 percent off! - and he's been making iced espresso drinks for himself in the evenings ever since - they have 3-4 shots in each drink, and he has it around 10 pm and then sleeps through the night - amazing!

Peanut Butter Shop!

My friend Heather and I took a lunchtime trip to the Peanut Butter Shop in the West Village - it was fun, we tasted several great varieties of peanut butter, and Heather had a PB and banana sandwich, and bought cookies for both of us! We both bought some jars of peanut butter for home.....yummm!!!

Great visit with friends!

I went to see my dear friend Juliet and her family in Hartsdale, and what a wonderful visit it was. We took a walk on the nature trail, made a cake, and had lunch - all so much fun, and it was great to see Juliet and Bob's daughter, Eliza, who is sooo beautiful with gorgeous blue eyes!

Easter Sunday family visits

Here are some photos we took when visiting my mom and Peter's parents on the Easter

Birthday Flowers

What a lovely bouquet Peter brought me on my birthday weekend at end of March - they lasted over 3 weeks!

Snow Swan!

Look at this great swan sculpture our neighbor created after that big snowstorm the first weekend in March! Awesome!

great vacation in Florida!

We had a great week at the end of February, visiting our aunt and uncle in Deerfield Beach, FL, near Ft. Lauderdale. Went on a cruise around Miami, had nice dinners on the patio, visited the Riverwalk area, and relaxed by the pool!

Shopping for Music with Mom!

How fun it was to go with Mom to the Mamaroneck Music Center and have her try out a few new pieces of music on the piano there, and then play the new pieces at home - she's so cute and loves her music so much, we'll be going back there soon! It was such a pleasure to see her enjoy playing the piano in the shop, etc.

my handsome, trim & fit husband!

Peter has lost 22 lbs and is still dropping weight - doesn't he look fantastic? This photo was taken when we were on a cruise around the Miami waterfront during our trip to Florida in February. I am SO proud of him - he looks younger and more handsome than ever!
