I just got back from a quick trip to New York. We came across one of those cheap Jet Blue fares, so off we went to visit friends and eat and drink and have a wonderful time.
There’s a strange poetry about New York. I’ve never been able to put my finger on it, but there’s just something about it that really makes you feel awake and present. If I could live there part time, I might do it.


We stayed with our friends Sarah and Rob in Brooklyn. Sarah made fondue and we spent lots of time snuggling with their cats.



We went to some good bars. And good restaurants. Ah, the Indian food, how I miss it here in Oregon!

I like this picture even though my eyes are closed. We are on our way to The Frick, which is such a wonderful museum. We also managed to make it to the Met, where there is an incredible exhibit of illuminated manuscripts.

And I went fabric shopping, visited Tinsel Trading Co, met Gertie, and visited the Oliver and S studio (more on those things soon over at the Colette Patterns blog).
