How I Spent My Christmas Vacation.

..................................................................................................................................Aren't you glad that I'm not going to start this post by using, as comparison, an image like this>>
honestly, I was more like this until noon most days {what. I was on West Coast time. In a hotel room. With no children}:

But to be truthful, It was more like this:
Totally uncool, trying to scurry across the park on a retail mission and the next thing you know, I'm being pulled into a street performance {that's me, biting my lip, trying to figure out how to ease my way out of the debacle- oh and freezing my *ss off, as I hadn't broken out the winter gear quite yet} and the next..... I'm eating lunch at this corner spot in Soho. While 2/3 of you are are fighting seasonal affective disorder, for us, 'winter' is a magical thing.![]()
Food. Big part of our trip. If you're going to over indulge, go big.
eat 'till it hurts. Wear elastic waist bands if you must.
We ate our Italian in soho...not here:
and per use. the stalking of well dressed women over the age of 80
This little, Super Model minx, stood outside of Bergdorf's, with her care giver, ordering everyone with children to 'Stop and make them look at the windows. Then photograph them in front of their favorite'
Can't wait to be 80.
There was also art. Art on walls... inside....
and out.
And great views of House Beautiful headquarters,
which I realized on day 3 while brushing my teeth as I blindly stared out my hotel window- at noon} How was Times Square on New Year's you ask?
wouldn't know.
We were asleep by 8:00 p.m.

You should take it as a compliment that you were pulled into a street performance, because New Yorkers are too hardened to stop and look, much less make eye contact.

Next time we must met up!

BB- dammit. I wish you were with us. At least one of the nights.
I forgot to add, Highline park is spectacular. Even in the winter.
just one year or maybe 4-5 months I would like to live there.
Have a great day!
