It's not just Christmas time in the city, it's Christmas Eve. There are less than twenty-four hours to Christmas day. It's a day for cooking, perhaps a few errands left to do and getting ready for celebrating Christmas. I've still got a few cards to write, a few packages to wrap, and a few blog posts to finish. This is the scene as I walk up Broadway doing my errands and enjoying the last day of the season.
The lights of Lincoln Center are my first stop on my way home.
I've already stopped at the Farmer's Market a few blocks away and found these treats.
The aroma from the herb wreaths was lovely. One of the things I will miss most on December 26 is the aroma from herbs and greens that have turned the sidewalks of New York into a forest glade.
Hansel and Gretel time in a local bakery window
This chorus of dogs and penguins made me smile
This is the scene on every third block. I feel that I've fallen into a version of Christmas "Ghost Busters."
Wishes for a bright and beautiful Christmas Eve, with time to enjoy the aromas of the season and many moments of joy and happiness.

Busy getting ready for Santa. Love the sights from your beloved city. It is the most wonderful time of the year.
Those festive treats look delightful and delicious! This morning I've been busy cooking and baking in the kitchen. Tonight we'll enjoy a Christmas Eve dinner with some friends. I wish you a very happy Christmas Eve!
Happy Christmas to you, Carol!!! I have plenty of baking and cooking to do today. We are having a family party tonight and hosting children and grands for dinner tomorrow.
I've enjoyed a charming "stroll" with you.
Merry, merry!
Best,
Bonnie

Beautiful. Stay safe, especially with all the craziness down there. Blessings
Buttercup, I love the city pictures so very much. Some heavenly bakeries too. I know what you mean about the wonderful scents around our holidays. I love the scent of pines. Blessings for a happy holiday....enjoy !. xoxo, Susie
The aroma of fresh greens is such a welcoming one! It would be fun to see these displays in person!
What a great walk while doing errands. So many good things to view. Have a wonderful day!
Dear Carol, I wish you a very merry & blessed Christmas. xo, Catherine
What a wonderful share. We have frigid temps and ice and snow. Ugh! Pretty when you can look at it but we have to go to the dentist tomorrow across town. Argh....But I will smile thru it all. I have several projects I am working on around my house and I have felt sorry for poor pitiful me. So once this dental surgery heals I am going to pour myself into my housework! LOL! Love your photo shares. Hugs, Anne
