Happy Fourth of July!



Our day ended with Strawberry Shortcake.  I had a craving for it, the kind with drop biscuits and Cool Whip or Reddi Whip.  Just like when I was a kid.  My grandmother also did the drop biscuits.  Mine were care of Trader Joe's mix.  And I really was going to make real whipped cream, but I didn't want to dirty another bowl, I'll admit.


Earlier in the day we went down to the South Ferry stop and walked up through Tribeca.  Here's a shot of Lady Liberty, how appropriate for the Fourth.  Lots of tourists, I felt like one taking pictures.
And then I wanted to see how the World Trade Center area was progressing, it's really coming along.  They even have the glass on the outside now.

Finished up our day with a burger at The National on Rivington (it was really good!).  Juicy, the right bun, and some blue cheese on top.  Good call, M.

Candy, Easter Style


I've held off for as long as possible. I tried to get to April. And then I went to Target and gave in.

I only allowed myself two purchases: Black Jelly Beans and Cadbury Creme Eggs.

I went with the orange ones, too. I do love the originals, there is something about that really sweet, sugary cream inside. Now, one path I could not go down was the malted milk ball egg one. Those are too addictive, I can't stop with one!

So I heard these eggs were "nice to eat". I didn't get to try one, someone had eggs for lunch, including my orange bunny laid eggs. That means I'll just have to get more, just to report back, of course.
