Giant sunflowers greeted us when we arrived. Great Italian cuisine and a fabulous dessert splurge, Apple and blackberry crisp with vanilla gelato. Worth every calorie. I try to eat sensibly most of the time, but I will only turn 70 once. I'm not a sailor, but this marina might convince me otherwise I loved the meal and the company, but the view -- this time looking north to Manhattan -- and the beautiful summer sky made my day complete. We finished the day with a quick supermarket stop. I had my pick of several new varieties of yogurt and found a few items I hadn't seen in any of my grocery shopping in Manhattan. I plan to blog about my finds in the next few days. I also am planning to continue my posts about new varieties of favorite foods, inspired by our blogger friend, Ginny. Goodbye to August and soon it will be goodbye to summer. It was still warm enough for flip flops and shorts today and I definitely enjoyed it. Each warm day means being able to sit outside and meet a friend for a visit or have an iced coffee at one of the local places. As ever, thanks for visiting and take good care. |
