Everyone can identify with a fragrant garden, with the beauty of a sunset, with the quiet of nature, with a warm and cozy cottage.

easter sundee.
watching Jesus Christ Superstar, the 1973 movie.
deviled eggs with plenty of paprika.
iced tea.
my boyfriend in his new pants.
the country club buffet.
my grandparents in matching pink.
tearing-up during the hallelujah chorus.
weather that hints at rain, but never really threatens.
memory: matching laura ashley dresses.
memory: the greens swimming pool with its' gigantic steps + me always coveting cheese fries.
memory: plastic eggs filled with pennies and orange slices.
mandated: an easter bunny mascot. always, there must be one around.

guess i'll just have to go back.
More amazing NYC To-Do's via my (second) cousin Sandra, current NYC resident who will be working at the Peggy Guggenheim collection in Venice this summer (!!!)...
One thing you must add to the NYC itinerary if you have time: Nitehawk. It's a theater in Williamsburg that serves cocktails and dishes that correspond with the films. The screening rooms are tiny and romantic and you and Walker will love everything about it.
Hm, what else?
Prune for brunch, get there at 9:40 and wait in line with the Times, and then you don't have to deal with the line. They have the most remarkable bloody mary menu.
Roberta's for pizza and beer and cool Bushwick ambiance--go for the early bird special at 6 or else it gets packed.
See the Whitney Biennial if you have time for the best of the best American contemporary art. And the New Museum Triennial for a more global survey.
Ride the 6 train all the way to the end and it will take you around the end and you can see the old, abandoned stop through the windows (you can do this with walker and he will be so impressed!).
Listen to Meg and definitely walk over the BB and eat some ice cream or pizza at Grimaldi's on the other side. Do the highline. It's supposed to be beautiful weather!!!!
just hangin'
New York City! (said in a Pace Picante commercial voice).
drink beer from mason jars in brooklyn: check.
stay with a world class klezmer musician fresh off his european tour: check.
cream cheese smeared bagels while walking through springtime park slope: check.
recline on deck chairs at the highline: check.
