I walked the neighborhood yesterday - and I was cheered to see the Tree in Washington Square!
You know I love New York, but sometimes my world is new in surprising ways!
First things first: we don't have snow yet in New York City! But we have had it not so long ago and I'm sure we'll have some soon!
Some homes are not like any others!
The Lights in Dyker Heights - amazing - and more than this!
Invaders? Or just visiting: Yes, sometimes these gentle souls grace our homes with their presence - and as long as we believe, they will again!
Many bars and restaurants are ready to help you celebrate the season! Come one, come all!
