Last weekend, we took a walk across the Williamsburg Bridge and checked out some exhibits that were part of the Festival of Ideas for the New City.

Every day should be a festival of ideas, however small they may be. (Like: Walk more, drive less. Brilliant!)

Yesterday was my last day at work and I am very excited about what the future has in store. Against the dark NY-skies, a toast to what’s to come.

Walking across the Williamsburg Bridge, it became clear that someone else was (or had been) in the same rainbow bright mood.

I found this very cool vintage wicker bag at Beacon’s Closet a few weekends ago. Will be perfect for the many picnics this summer will hold.

I broke it in at the Japanese cherry blossom festival this weekend. I think this will definitely be a fave.
