I am ready for a weekend in NYC.
Thank you to all the insights and support I got from all of you. I went on Saturday and bought an outfit at a great store in Portsmouth called Serendipity. The outfit is simple but elegant. A black skirt, simple lines-flowing. The top is a black tank with a beautiful long-sleeve lace top over it. It is antique white with satin trim along the button line and a satin tie around the back. I will wear black mary janes for shoes. I know I am going to be comfortable and I love the outfit.
ALSO...big night! I got the best haircut tonight. I have been waiting probably 4 years for a haircut like this. I got it done by a woman in town named Irish Nason. She had vision, confidence and I got a great hair cut. YEAH! I also got my eyebrows waxed. I love that. Best 8 bucks I have spent in a while.
Sarah, speaking of addicting. I could get used to this manicure, waxing, nice haircut, new outfits. BUT cleaning is cheaper!
See this awesome looking recipe on the Brownie Points blog.
Our first night in Brooklyn. We had a great time. Despite the extra hours it took us to get there because of traffic, we were happy to land in a fun area of Brooklyn, a couple blocks from friends, Pete and Erin. We went out to dinner at Bonnie's Grill. Very diner-esque! But the best veggie chili cheese fries I have ever had. Perfect first meal. And then met up with people at a bar. I don't know the name but it had two bocci ball courts with the fanciest bocci ball players I have ever seen. I thought that there was a law somewhere that says you are not allowed to play bocci ball in pearls and heels.
