Sketching

I've decided to start sketching and see where it leads me. This is the view outside my bedroom window. I don't like putting in detail, and that's about all there is to drawing buildings -- windows, windows, and more windows.

The Gondola


So glad my husband and I took the gondola to Roosevelt Island. Check out these views of the East River and the Queensboro Bridge. . . all for the price of a subway ride!

Tomato Fest Again


So pretty, n'est pas?


My husband was somewhat fidgety as we watched The Best Man on Broadway last week. When we exited the theater, he pulled out a sock from his shirt! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

TOMATO FEST IN NEW YORK CITY!





Tomato Fest is when several french restaurants in New York teem up to create the most amazing foods with all those August tomatoes from appetizers to desserts. Pictured here are two desserts, stuffed tomatoes, fish and mashed potatoes with tomato sauce, and a tomato burger.






Once again, I let my husband talk me into standing in line for food in New York. Ridiculous, right? The Shake Shack is located in the theatre district and very popular with tourists. I have to admit, it was the most delicious burger I've had next to the ones my dad would produce from his charcoal grill!


My son think's he's so smart: 216 points for "jitter".
