hello!
August 19, 2011
Just taking some time to say hello! We’ve been having the perfect week on the Cape. The weather has been a dream and I’ve been getting some much needed sleep and sun time. I finished Shanghai Girls (SO good. Lisa See is an incredible writer.) and am cruising through The Hunger Games. I’m hoping to start on The Happiness Project next.
What have you been reading this summer?
We’ve been eating like kings here in Chatham this week. Lobster rolls and clam chowder are necessities and my grandmother even made homemade spaghetti and meatballs one night at the house. I can’t resist getting ice cream (toppings aplenty, please!) and the chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting that my sister made last night was out-of-this-world delicious.
Our week is coming to a close and I’m getting a little sad. But more than anything I’m grateful for the time I’ve had to relax and be a beach bum. I always hate to see summer go. Me and this season have got something special together. Always have, always will.
Well, we’re heading to the beach right now to soak up our last full day with our toes in the sand, but I just wanted to stop in to say HI! HAPPY FRIDAY!
off i go…

Signing off for a while as I head out of Boston to enjoy some much anticipated time away.
First, to Lake George in the Adirondacks for my lovely friend Katharine’s wedding (I’ve got my dancing shoes!), and then to the Cape to enjoy the last days of summer. I may pop in once or twice, but mostly I’ll be off the grid, just soaking up the sun and the sand and the company of my family.
I’m oh so excited. I’ve been looking forward to this all year.
Have a wonderful week!!

What a great weekend in NY! We were fairly big tourists this weekend and I have to say I rather liked it that way. We had a great brunch at The Standard Grill under The High Line, then walked the length of the former elevated railway enjoying the green space and views of the NY city streets. I’ve been wanting to visit The High Line for awhile, and I’m so glad we stuck that into the weekend plans! The afternoon proved hot as we boarded the Circle Line Cruise and enjoyed a fun tour of Manhattan via boat. It was a great summer activity and I saw so many landmarks from a different perspective. New York City is truly incredible and this tour makes you really appreciate all it has to offer: the (mostly) big and small and everything in between. After the cruise, we took a quick (and necessary) trip to Fishs Eddy (MY FAVE!) and then we were lucky enough to enjoy GORGEOUS views of the city from Morgan’s roofdeck in the Flatiron District. It was so nice to be up so high soaking it all in and enjoying the summer sun. An amazing weekend with great friends (and terrific pictures to boot!).
Hope your weekend was FAB!
