I went to the Wythe Hotel for dinner again on Saturday night (order the steak) and this modern take on Eloise has me in stitches.

“The real truth is I probably don’t want to be too happy or content because, then what? I actually like the quest, the search. That’s the fun. The more lost you are the more you have to look forward to. So what do you know? I’m having a great time and I don’t even know it.” -Ally McBeal

This weekend I watched Ally McBeal for the first time ever. Netflix has all five seasons on instant play (dangerous!) and the show has me smiling ear to ear. I can’t help but relate to quirky, hopeless romantic Ally. Are you a fan?

“I still believed in possibilities then, still had the sense, so peculiar to New York, that something extraordinary would happen any minute, any day, any month.”
-Joan Didion

On Tuesday afternoon a friend and I walked around our neighborhood (the endearingly old-school Upper East Side) and snapped photos. He graciously let me use his camera which is far better than my own. We strolled past the Frick, stopped for macarons at Ladurée (raspberry, vanilla, and chestnut, please…), and zigzagged our way between Fifth and Madison. How lucky we are to live in Manhattan.
