Despite my best intentions, I didn't take enough pictures of New York on my recent trip. But here's are some of my favorites:
New York Public Library Side Door. Fancy!
Delicious sushi. Honestly, some of the best I've had. And later, a crab cake sandwich with fennel on top and homemade potato chips.
Creepy head statue in the lobby of my hotel.
Purl Soho!
I'd been dying to visit Purl, and my dear friend Jen indulged me. This is where I bought many of my souvenirs, including yarn for the two younger girls and high-end felt for the oldest, who does not like to wear knitted things. This, by the way, breaks my heart.
Big Marshmallow, however, likes knitted things very much. As evidenced by her demand that I turn her yarn into a hat. A pink hat. A pink pointy hat. Right this very minute.
Done and dusted, kid.
As for myself, I've gotten into the habit of buying teacups on my trips, and I found the perfect one at a Japanese bookstore.
Something about the patterns reminds me of the subway signs.
I am already anxious to go back.
