another winner

another totally wonderful sunny day
 alas
 there's
 snow coming
 tonite into tomorrow

 i met my friend blondie for lunch
 we walked uptown to candle cafe west 
a place
 my friend judy 
has been trying
 to get 
me 
to go to
 forever 

after today's lunch
 i am wondering
 why
 i never agreed to go

  its an organic cuisine restaurant
 the caters to vegans/vegetarians 
i had
 a
 yummy nuevos rancheros
 made with/of
spicy tempeh-potato hash, corn tortilla, guacamole, tofu sour cream, tomatillo salsa
 it was so good
 i wished
 it was a bigger portion

 since it wasn't
 i had a piece of carrot cake
 oh my

 coffee was good too

 they deliver
 but
 i will be going back 

 no 
didn't take any food photos 
because
 i was too busy eating!

 after lunch
 we walked 
down broadway 
 to do a little window shopping
 we are both handbag and shoe sluts 
we looked
but 
didn't buy

 i did get myself
 a sweet inexpensive necklace
 at a new shop, francesca's on broadway/86 street 

i love sparkle
 i love faux gems

i plan on wearing it with t-shirts
 as well as 
with 
sweaters or dresses 
i love mixing it up

since it was so nice 
toonman and i took a short walk
down to 72nd street
through the park
 there weren't a lot of photo ops
 the angle of the sun
 made for lots of shadows 
but 
i did get this one shot
of
 eleanor roosevelt's statue 
i was trying to get a shot of the squirrel at her feet
 but
 the shadows are too strong 

see for yourself
