Gorgeous weekend

What a weekend. It was seriously fantastic. First off…I revisited my old stomping grounds of Upstate Manhattan. I met my friend Katie at 9:30 for breakfast up at 181 and Fort Washington. Okay. Yes, I was traumatized by the subway experience. I’ve forgotten how long it takes to get places, especially on the weekend. And I was hungover. But. I got there…and had a lovely breakfast. They were nice enough at the diner to give me a pint glass so I could make my shake. Sweet!

Then I met Beau up at Dykeman Street and we went to my old street Isham, and he bought some vegetables at the Farmer’s market. Then we walked to Target and I got a copy of ACU so that Beau could see it. We got on the Metro North and went to where he lives…a little (adorable) town upstate called Tarrytown. We went hiking (pics posted below) in Rockefeller State Park and basically looked around the town.


That night we went to the most AMAZING restaurant. It’s called Blue Hill at Stone Barns. We saw Natalie Portman and Martha Stewart there and basically had one of the most amazing meals I’ve ever experienced. Seriously, if you like food and come near NYC, you have to go! It’s hard to get a reservation, but Beau and I sat at the bar. We’re big fans of sitting at the bar. Check it out:

The rest of the weekend was very low key. Beau and I walked around Tarrytown some more, trying to work off our huge meal at Blue Hill. And he treated me to some seriously delicious Indian food. He is awesome!

    The picture thing works well. And here I thought Tarrytown was simply Washington Irving’s old haunt. I had no idea it was such a good place for a ramble.
