Flowers in Spring!

I walked through the Union Square Greenmarket yesterday and couldn't resist taking pictures and buying some lovely flowers/ At the moment there is a bohemian crystal vase full of fragrant white roses, a gift from a friends after a celebration yesterday. My home is full of peonies and assorted pretty flowers and feels so fresh...I try to have fresh flowers as a spiritual lift every week or so, and it makes a huge difference here.

The Union Square Greenmarket seems to consist of flower and honey vendors on Saturdays, and foods three times during the week. There are a lot of cool shops and cafes nearby, so if you are in NYC and want a market experience in a trendy neighborhood, the Flatiron District, this would be a great area to check out, and you are also close to the East Village as you walk south, so it's made for walking the city.

Enjoy the colors!

A Walk In The Park

Continuing with the Fall Theme, I walked through Central Park this past week on another impossibly gorgeous day, eager to see how the leaf colors were progressing. It was only just starting, and I was thrilled by the sight of a few trees that looked as if God had dipped a dry brush in red and just touched up the edges of a few trees. That red makes me CRAZY, so I have to go back next week to chart its progress. I was in NJ over the weekend, and the fall colors are ahead of New York City's...some pix coming soon.

I photographed the Park in the East 80s, walking by the Great Lawn and the duck pond near the Delacorte Theater.
